Call of Duty Warzone Season 4 adds In-Match Events, 50 v 50 mode and more
Modern Warfare’s latest update is out now
Call of Duty Warzone and Modern Warfare’s Season 4 update has been released, adding new In-Match Events for the Battle Royale game and a 50 v 50 team mode.
The update, which Activision warns is a “large” download, also adds new operator Captain Price to the latest Season Pass.
Warzone’s In-Match Events can happen in any given match without advance notice, Activision said, but only one event type will occur in a given match.
The three Warzone In-Match Events are:
- Jailbreak: After a one-minute notice, all players that have been eliminated will be released back into the match.
- Fire Sale: Most of the items at the Buy Station are temporarily discounted by up to 80 percent. During a Fire Sale buying back a fallen teammate is completely free.
- Supply Chopper: A non-lethal, but heavily armored helicopter arrives in Verdansk. Shoot it down to receive high quality loot including three UAVS, two armor boxes and munitions boxes, a gas mask, a grenade launcher, and “tons of Cash at a minimum”.
In addition, Warzone has added a new Rumble mode, which has two teams of 50 players battle it out in various areas around Verdansk.
Finally, Season 4 introduces the Contraband Contract System, a new, rare contract with a permanent Blueprint Reward. Contraband contracts have a chance to spawn after a previous contract is completed.
Once players have collected Contraband, they need to take it to the designated Helicopter Extraction location to call in the helicopter. The player carrying the briefcase must deposit it into the helicopter drop-bag to complete the mission. If you kill a player carrying this briefcase you can steal it and complete the contract for your team.
Update: Warzone Season 4 will also include Juggernaut Royale and Realism modes, while Modern Warfare multiplayer will add the Cheshire Park map and several extra modes mid-season.
