Call of Duty Warzone latest update available, drops new mode and four weapons

Call of Duty Warzone has just received a much-anticipated update, providing more content and polish to the battle royale players. The update was slated for earlier this week but got delayed due to a last-minute issue. It adds several things users had been waiting for a while.

The update includes more weapons, such as the 725 Shotgun, and Warzone specific controller button layouts.

A Plunder: Blood Money variant is also coming, and has guaranteed cash drops on all kills. Bounty Contracts and finishing moves now pay extra cash.

Here’s the Warzone changelog with all the details:
