Modes

Rebirth of the Dead New Mode | July 27th through August 11th

For a limited time, the classic Zombie Royale experience is coming back – this time to Rebirth Island but with a twist.

For those who haven’t played before, here are the core rules:

• Players become zombies when they die.
• Zombies can collect antivirals from crates or dead Players to redeploy as a human.
• Last team with a human wins.
• Player Count: 10 squads of four.

But that’s not all. The following additions have been made to the mode:

• As Zombies are Eliminated, the Infestation Meter fills. When it’s full, all spectators are returned to play as Zombies. Then it all starts again.
• During the match, Medical Supplies will be parachuted in to help humans and zombies alike.
• Zombies that perform a Finishing Move on a human will redeploy.
• Play to get one of two exclusive event Calling Cards;
  • Head Scratcher: Perform your Finishing Move as a Zombie.
  • Last Alive: Win a match of Rebirth of the Dead as a Human.

With the above also comes an ominous fog to Rebirth Island. For a limited time, experience this new mood and atmosphere during Rebirth of the Dead.

Titanium Trials: Endurance New Mode | August 11th through 24th

First, there were the Iron Trials – now, inspired by the rise of machines in the near future, it’s time for all Operators to gear up for the Titanium Trials in Caldera.

• 152 Players on Caldera in a game mode variant of Battle Royale
• Maximum base armor threshold increased to 300 hit points, for a total of 400 effective health when fully plated
• Core health is 100HP and regeneration takes significantly longer to heal to full. Armor is everything, afterall.
• The Tempered Perk appears more frequently as ground loot for more efficient armor repairs.
• Each Player begins the game and returns from the gulag with a Self-Revive Kit.
• Features a custom-built, thematic loot table to support the higher TTK gameplay, including exceedingly rare Redacted Weapons that are a step more powerful than Loadout Weapons.
• The cost of Loadouts in Buy Stations begins at a higher price point and decreases over the duration of the match. Be sure to grab your discounted Loadouts as the circle collapses!
• Updated infiltration cinematic for T-800 and T-1000 Terminator Operators

Warzone Season Four Reloaded Update: Gameplay

• “Cursed Ground” New Special Event | Fortunes Keep
  • Fortune’s Keep is now considered Cursed Ground – and now has a special event to match. There are several “Cursed Chests” hidden around the newly discovered island. These chests contain power-ups and high-quality items which can only be unlocked by brave souls who survive a hungry horde. Once the event begins, Zombies will continuously spawn in the vicinity of the cursed chest. Eliminate them near the chest to harvest Wisps. As your collection grows, more difficult waves of zombies will rise to protect their Cursed Ground. Harvest enough Wisps within the time limit to secure victory and access the rewards within, including Cash, Killstreaks, Equipment, and possibly Perk Tokens.
• Portable Redeploy Balloon New Deployable | All Modes 
  • It’s in the name… a portable version of the popular Redeploy Balloons. Can be placed on the ground and used until it expires or is destroyed.
  • The Portable Redeploy Balloon functions as follows;
    • Has half the health of a normal Redeploy Balloon
    • Has a shorter launch distance of a normal Redeploy Balloon.
    • Will despawn automatically after a short time.
    • Comes with a unique icon identifier on the Tac Map.
    • Can be found in ground loot or as the reward for completing a Supply Drop Contract, as a guaranteed drop from the crate.
• Bomber Planes (are back!) Returning Feature| Caldera Battle Royale
  • We have enjoyed watching the new Player stories that the Fighter Planes added to Season Four, so we have also re-enabled the Bombers for Battle Royale and will continue to monitor their sentiment and engagement over the season.
