Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 promises big changes for the Warzone mode. We take stock of all the announced changes and improvements.
Warzone is gearing up for a major shake-up with the release of Black Ops 6. During the event Call of Duty CONTINUEActivision has revealed many new features for the game and fans can expect big changes in the coming months. What are they? We’ll take stock of what we know with you.
Changes for Call of Duty Warzone
First, a new compact map called Area 99 was announced. This atomic-themed map is set around a nuclear power plant, reminiscent of the quintessential Nuketown from Black Ops. Area 99 promises fast-paced, intense combat, perfect for anyone who likes fast-paced action.
But that’s not all. When Black Ops 6 launches on October 25, Warzone will receive a number of significant updates. Among them will be the new Omnimovement movement mechanic, which will provide more fluidity and dynamism in movement. In addition, most of the weapons and equipment from Black Ops 6 will be integrated directly into Warzone.
Good news for players too: the carry forward system will be back. This means that almost all weapons from Modern Warfare 2 and 3 can be transferred to the new version of Warzone. This port ensures a smooth transition for those who have already invested time in these games.
A nice list of new products
One of the interesting new features is the ability to carry a melee weapon as a third option. As for perks, players can now select three perks before starting the game, with the added bonus of one Wildcardan addition that hadn’t been seen in years. As a reminder, a wildcard is a feature that allows players to modify or enhance their class’s abilities in a special way.
For fans of challenges, Call of Duty Warzone will also introduce new missions, including Weapon Mastery, Crosshair Challenges, and the mysterious Dark Ops Calling Card. These remain secret, but they promise to add a new level of difficulty and rewards for the most persistent players.
Adjustments are to be expected for the Battle Royale
Raven Software has announced a return to basics in inventory management. The backpack system will be removed, making it easier and faster to access items like money and armor plates. Satchels (special equipment that allows players to carry more armor plates) will return, allowing you to increase storage capacity.
Finally, adjustments have been made to game mechanics to improve the experience. Ziplines and climbers will be easier to use and the duration of live pings will be shortened to avoid them cluttering the screen.
Finally, Season 1 of Call of Duty Black Ops 6 and Warzone will also introduce Battle Royale Ranked Play. This ranked mode offers a new challenge for players who love competition and want to test themselves against the best.
