New Call of Duty: Warzone Update Releases and Shifts the Season 6 Meta

Get a look at the patch notes for Warzone's new update.

By Logan Moore

The latest update for the free-to-play battle royale shooter Call of Duty: Warzone has today gone live. Currently in the midst of Season 6, Warzone is slated to get a major overhaul in a little more than a month when Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 releases. Prior to that time, though, Activision has today let loose a new patch that shifts the current meta of the multiplayer game in some key ways. 

Downloadable now across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, this new Warzone update predominantly brings changes to the DTIR 30-06 battle rifle. Specifically, the gun's recoil rate has been greatly overhauled both at a base level and with various attachments. Outside of this, there are a couple of smaller tweaks that have been made to the Bracefire-HC Grip and Caster-X1 Compensator. All other changes are then solely tied to bug fixes, which should improve Warzone overall.
