Call of Duty Warzone is out now
Welcome to Warzone, a new Call of Duty game, where you and 149 other players battle it out, in either a Battle Royale mode or the new Plunder game mode. The best part is that the game is free and out now for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
The game is set to offer two game modes at launch, Battle Royal and Plunder, each take place on the same map, but have very different objectives. In Battle Royale, fight to be the last squad standing while escaping the deadly gas in the swiftly closing circle with up to 150 players. Where as in Plunder, the race is on to collect the most in-match Cash by looting across the map, taking down enemies to steal their Cash, and completing in-match Contracts.
Of course with any good open world type shooter, vehicles play a critical role in getting around and here is no different. There are five vehicles all with varying levels of protection, speed, seating, and off-roading capability. Each vehicle has a health meter and when it reaches zero, the vehicle explodes and flames out. Needlessly to say, if the health of your vehicle is depleting, bail out before the impending explosion.
Here’s an overview of the five vehicle types that are populated throughout the world in Warzone:
ATV – two seater, provides minimal protection, good at offroading, fast.
Tactical Rover – four seater, provides minimal protection, solidly fast, solid at off-roading.
SUV – four seater, provides good protection, medium speed, not ideal for off-roading.
Cargo Truck – holds the squad plus equipment, excellent protection, not for off-roading, slowest.
Helicopter – four seater, decent coverage, flies.
There is even more to learn, so hit up the Call of Duty Blog for all the details, otherwise start the download and jump in, just be warned, it is beefy if you don’t already have Modern Warfare installed, nearly 80gb.
