MODES

Power Armor Royale Limited-Time Mode

 

Power Armor Royale is a limited-time, asymmetrical power-fantasy crossover inspired by the Fallout universe. Players deploy into Verdansk to charge personal Fusion Cores, secure devastating Power Armor, navigate deadly Radiation Zones, and survive encounters with Raiders, enemy Operators, and rival Power Armors.

 

  • Overview
    • Resurgence rules are active through the end of the 5th circle, transitioning to classic Warzone Battle Royale rules starting in the 6th circle.
    • Shares the same win condition as classic Warzone Battle Royale.
    • Supports up to 66 players per match.
    • Nuclear bombs strike Verdansk at infil, creating visible Radiation Zones marked as green circles on the Tac Map.
    • Enemy bots referred to as Raiders are roaming Verdansk.
    • The first safe circle is reduced in size compared to standard Warzone.
       
  • Gameplay
    • Charge your personal Fusion Core by collecting Fusion Core canisters dropped from:
      • Player eliminations
      • Power Armor eliminations
      • Raider eliminations
      • Contracts
      • Loot crates
        • Increased value found inside Radiation Zones
    • Use the Tac Map to locate Radiation Zones. Entering these zones without Power Armor will gradually reduce your maximum health unless countered with RadAway.
    • Search Radiation Zones for special loot, including Fallout-themed crates and Power Armor crates that grant powerful weapons and abilities.
    • Beginning in Circle 2, planes drop Power Armor boxes across the map. With a fully charged Fusion Core, interact with Brotherhood-marked kiosks to equip a Power Armor suit.
    • While in Power Armor, utilize a dedicated HUD, powerful weapons (such as a minigun and shotgun), and abilities including thrusters, Mega Punch, Tesla Coil, and a mini-nuke while managing armor health, fusion fuel, and coordinated enemy threats.

 

High Octane Battle Royale Limited-Time Mode (In-Season)

 

High Octane is an all-gas, no-brakes mode built for near-constant action. Spawn fully equipped, buy yourself back into the fight, and no matter what… keep moving!

 

  • Overview
    • Spawn with your custom loadout.
    • Tactical equipment is replaced with the Grappling Hook.
    • Access the Buy Station anywhere by holding down the inventory button, anytime throughout the match, stocked with extra high-impact items.
    • Automatic redeploy when eliminated if you have at least $4,000.
    • Extremely fast gas circles that keep pressure high and downtime low.

PLAYLIST

Weekend LTMs

 

  • Make It Rain Resurgence Week 2
    • Make It Rain floods the map with frequent drops of high-value Crates, turning every impact zone into a high-risk honeypot where squads battle for top-tier rewards. As the match progresses, each circle raises the stakes.Opening them later in the match grants increased XP for Operators bold enough to hold their ground.
    • Map: Haven’s Hollow
    • Squad Size: Quads

 

  • Community-Voted Favorite Week 4
    • As a reminder, we’ll be looking at the most-played weekend-only LTMs since Season 01 launched and hosting a community vote to decide which one makes a return for the final week of the season. More details will be provided soon.

GENERAL

New

The above is showing the static camos of Neon Pulse and Shock Rift. Grind out those hard-earned wins to see what the animated camos Retro Blaze and Inferno Loop look like and show them off in game!

  • Win Streaks
    • Win Streaks introduce high-tier rewards for players who achieve consecutive match victories in either Battle Royale or Resurgence. Casual modes will not count towards Win Streaks. Battle Royale and Resurgence track win streaks separately, so you can switch between modes without risking the streak you’re on in the other.
    • Battle Royale
      • 10 consecutive wins – Neon Pulse (static camo)
      • 25 consecutive wins – Retro Blaze (animated camo)
    • Resurgence
      • 30 consecutive wins – Shock Rift (static camo)
      • 50 consecutive wins – Inferno Loop (animated camo)
    • You can track your Win Streak count using the in-game icon tracker in top right corner of the screen or by checking the tracker displayed beneath the "Play" button in the lobby.
We’ve been experimenting with the idea of win streaks for some time, and we believe it’s important to support long-term mastery goals alongside more accessible progression systems. We recognize that these win streak rewards may feel out of reach for many players, but we’re excited to offer a meaningful challenge and exclusive recognition for those who put in the time, coordination, and effort to reach these levels of performance.

EQUIPMENT

Adjusted

  • Needle Drone
    • Increased flight time from 8 seconds to 16 seconds.
 
  • Point Turret
    • Increased targeting range from 13m to 25m.
    • Slightly reduced target acquisition time.
 
  • Gas Mask
    • Reduced gas resistance duration from 10 seconds to 5 seconds.

KILLSTREAKS

New

  • Deadeye Drone
    • A remotely piloted aerial drone equipped with a small caliber Sniper Rifle.
    • Inflicts 50 damage per shot, with a maximum of 10 shots per drone.
    • These are only available from Care Packages.
The Deadeye Drone is designed to sow chaos and disorient opponents by applying pressure from unexpected angles. While it requires precision and situational awareness to use effectively, skilled players can turn it into a powerful - and even lethal - tool in the right hands.

Adjusted

  • Counter UAV
    • Increased health from 150 to 300.
    • Reduced Buy Station price from $4,000 to $2,000.
    • Battle Royale
      • Increased radius of effect from 127m to 152m.
    • Resurgence
      • Reduced radius of effect from 127m to 73m.
We’re taking steps to improve the overall usability of the Counter UAV. With these changes, a Counter UAV now covers roughly half the area of a standard UAV when both are centered, creating clearer spatial interaction between the two. These adjustments provide additional ways to avoid detection while keeping the Counter UAV fully counterable through in-world interaction. Increased health also makes the drone more resilient, while still allowing it to be destroyed in a single hit by most launchers.

 

  • UAV Resurgence Only
    • Reduced radius of effect from 304m to 177m.
This adjustment better aligns UAV coverage with Counter UAV behavior on smaller maps. In its previous state, the UAV provided near map-wide information in Resurgence. Going forward, UAVs will offer more localized intel, similar to their role on large-scale Battle Royale maps.

LOOT & ECONOMY

Adjusted

  • General Loot
    • Removed UAVs from chest loot.
    • Added Deadeye Drone to Care Package Killstreak loot.

Adjusted

  • Counter UAV
    • Reduced price from $4,000 to $2,000.
 
  • Gas Mask
    • Added back to Buy Stations in Battle Royale and Resurgence for $4,000.
We recognize that gas plays are a core part of the Warzone experience, so we’re bringing the Gas Mask back into the Buy Station. That said, it now comes at a higher price and provides less protection than before. Make the play but don’t expect to spend extended time in the gas.

WEAPONS

New Weapons

  • Sturmwolf 45 Submachine Gun
    •  Full-auto submachine gun. Reliable and easy to control with very low recoil and solid range.
    • Can be acquired via Event Reward
    • Prestige Attachment: Magazine > MFS Tigris .40 Cal Mag
      • Converts the Sturmwolf 45 into .40 Cal with improved stopping power through higher damage and damage range at the expense of recoil control. Improves handling but reduces ammo capacity and slows both fire rate and bullet velocity.
  • Hawker HX Sniper Rifle (In-Season)
    • Bolt-action Sniper Rifle with two unique playstyles. By default this sniper can one-shot headshot within a limited range having excellent handling and velocity. It also has a barrel that transforms it into an infinite range one-shot headshot sniper.
    • Can be acquired via Event Reward
    • Prestige Attachment: Barrel >  MFS 25" Votive Barrel
      • This barrel will improve damage range and velocity.

New Attachments

  • Coda 9 Adaptive Discharge Mod
    • Provides a faster fire rate with improved spread when fired off the hip and a slower fire rate with higher damage and range in ADS. Improves recoil control, but harms handling and mobility.
    • Can be acquired via Weekly Challenge Reward

 

  • M8A1 Autostrike-X8 Conversion
    • Convert the M8A1 into a fully automatic weapon with a fast fire rate and controllable recoil. Improves headshot damage and handling but harms ranged firepower, aiming movement speed, and spread.
    • Can be acquired via Weekly Challenge Reward

 

  • MPC-25 ContraBloom Laser
    • Removes virtually all hip spread and resists firing bloom. Improves non-ADS mobility with a significant damage range penalty. Provides Crossbar ADS with increased aiming idle sway. Blocks Underbarrel Attachments and Optics.
    • Can be acquired via Weekly Challenge Reward

Weapon Adjustments

With this mid-season update, we aimed to bring more value to underused attachments, especially mid-range barrels on ARs and SMGs while addressing attachments that were either too punishing to run or overly dominant in their slot. We also made adjustments to help certain ARs better compete at mid-to-long ranges, expanding overall long-range diversity.

Assault Rifle Adjustments

Weapon

BO7 Assault Rifles

Adjustments:
We’ve updated the Mid-Range Barrel across all Black Ops 7 ARs. These barrels now provide an ADS movement speed bonus and, in some cases, improved mid-range performance, making them a strong option for sniper support builds.

  • 17" Bystro Speed Barrel
    • Now provides a 7% ADS movement speed benefit
    • Medium Damage Range 1 benefit improved from 25% to 35%

    • Maximum Range damage decreased from 70 to 56
    • Medium Range damage decreased from 56 to 47
    • Minimum Range damage decreased from 47 to 42
This conversion was slightly too strong due to its fast time-to-kill. We’ve adjusted its damage profile so it now requires one additional bullet to secure a kill across each damage range.
