Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 Get New Update for May 31

05/31/2023 12:36 pm EDT

A new update for both Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 has today rolled out across all platforms. Currently, both of Activision's latest Call of Duty titles are in the midst of Season 3, which should extend into this summer. And while it's not yet known what might be coming to Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 in Season 4, today's new update should slightly improve both shooters. 

Available to download at this very moment, the newest update for Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 is pretty small in stature. Across both games, Activision has made a couple of tweaks with weapons like the ISO Hemlock and Cronen Squall. For the most part, though, this patch looks to primarily fix a number of lingering bugs that have been found in both games. So if you've found various issues with MW2 or Warzone 2 in recent weeks, hopefully, those errors have now been rectified. 

You can find the full patch notes for today's latest Call of Duty update attached down below.
