A recent playlist release made some big changes to the gameplay available in Call of Duty Warzone on PS4, Xbox One and PC. COD Modern Warfare gamers also got some new stuff to try out, including one in the Chamber mode and the removal of Scrapyard from Hardcore playlists. With Call of Duty Warzone Quads gone, developers Infinity Ward added Realism Mode, which remains playable today, June 22. Described as a more classic version of COD gameplay, Infinity Ward confirms that the rules in Realism are familiar.
Players will notice that they will have a basic HUD and will be able to take down entire teams with increased accuracy.
The official description adds: “Realism in Warzone follows the same rules as the Multiplayer mode. You’ll have a minimal HUD and deal increased headshot damage. Make sure you make the most of it, but fire with precision.
Warzone Realism is only available to play in teams of fours and replaces the normal Warzone Quads Mode.
WHEN IS QUADS COMING BACK TO WARZONE?
While Realism Mode is a Quads variant available now in Call of Duty Warzone, it’s only a temporary addition.
As confirmed by Infinity Ward, Realism Mode will be removed at some point during Season 4.
A message from the dev team explains: “This weekend’s playlist update for Warzone is now live across all platforms! Jump into Realism Battle Royale (Quads). This temporarily replaces Battle Royale Quads.”
So the good news for Battle Royale Warzone Quads fans is that it will be coming back very soon on all platforms.
Based on past releases, we would predict that the earliest we will see Battle Royale Quads back in Warzone will be Tuesday, June 23, 2020.
This could happen at 6pm GMT, or 11pm PT, depending on what schedule Activision has planned for this week.
However, it should be noted that Infinity Ward makes Playlist updates on other dates, including Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Other releases are also being planned for Modern Warfare and Warzone during Season 4 on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
This includes the release of Juggernaut Mode, which has yet to be given a launch date.
“In Juggernaut Royale, a Battle Royale mode variant, the massive Multiplayer Killstreak drops into Verdansk – three airdropped care packages, specifically, hold the Juggernaut suit,” Activision confirms.
“Head to one of the marked locations to capture and don the Juggernaut suit. Once you have it on, you’ll have higher health, a mini-gun, and a sweet music track to accompany you during the Warzone match.
“You’ll still be able to ride in vehicles and climb ladders, and your zero-fall damage will be accompanied by a ground pound of damage that impacts anyone in the immediate area. If any of the Juggernauts are sent to the Gulag, after a brief delay period, a new Juggernaut care package will be marked on the Tac-Map and deploy into Verdansk.”
COD Warzone is also expected to see map changes in the coming weeks, with train tracks being joined up across the map.
There has been some speculation that a train will be hitting the tracks during Season 4, although Activision has said nothing on its plans.
