Call of Duty Warzone has been given a big new update on PS5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC. The Season 4 Reloaded update adds a host of new gameplay features, weapons and items to Call of Duty. This includes the Reclaimer 18 Shotgun and the Sledgehammer Melee weapon, the latter of which can be unlocked by completing challenges. Warzone also adds the Altered Strain gameplay event, which opens up new pathways around the Popov Power Plant following the detonation of a DNA Bomb. The area is now covered in a toxic chemical agent, so players need to exercise caution. You can check out the Call of Duty Warzone Season 4 Reloaded patch notes below.
