Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 1 Reloaded patch notes released as update goes live

Activision has released Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 1 Reloaded.

To coincide with the big mid-season update going live, Sledgehammer Games and Raven Software have published lengthy patch notes for the latest game updates, which can be viewed in full here.

On the multiplayer front, there’s a brand new 6v6 map called Rio. The medium-sized battleground features a central shopping mall surrounded by a main street, tram station, market, plaza, café and residential spaces.

New multiplayer modes include Team Gunfight, Infected and Headquarters.

Multiplayer Ranked Play lets players compete in 4v4 matches using the same settings, maps and modes as the Call of Duty League.

And a crossover with superhero franchise The Boys includes a limited time Kill Confirmed mode featuring power boosts, plus a Supe Siege event challenge which lets players unlock a special LMG weapon blueprint.

Zombies players can unlock high-tier loot by defeating new South Korean-born Warlord Dokkaebi, while Warzone is getting a Gulag Night Vision event that lets players battle in the dark.

Raven announced last week that Season 1 Reloaded would no longer include a controversial new Warzone feature called Covert Exfil.

The new win condition, which would have let players call in a helicopter for the chance to exit battle royale matches early, received a significant amount of negative feedback following its reveal.

Following the response, Raven announced plans to delay the feature’s introduction, as well as an accompanying Weapon Case objective, and said it will instead release them as part of a dedicated mode.
