Call of Duty fans can download a big new update on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC. The August 6 Warzone update makes some big balance changes, tweaking damage output and other attributes for various weapons. Activision also makes some customisation improvements, as well as bug fixes within Call of Duty Warzone. Indeed, as you can see from the August 6 patch notes further down the page, this includes a fix for an issue preventing the death marker from appearing after a player is eliminated.

More nerfs can be found with the WSP Stinger, which has had max damaged reduced to 20, minimum damage reduced to 17, and mid-damage to 18.
