The main feature for today’s update is, of course, the Crossbow weapon. This one-hit kill beast is available for all players to unlock by going to the Marksman Rifles tab in the loadout menu. Complete the challenge requirements related to the weapon, and it’s yours to keep. In other words, keep practicing with your Marksman Rifle to make the most of this awesome addition to the Modern Warfare roster. Modern Warfare update 1.13 also adds Aniyah Palace to the Ground War rotation, as it was previously only available in 10v10 match play. The map is large enough to support more players, so we can’t wait to see how it fares in the new mode.

Speaking of Modern Warfare’s weapon roster, however, another major feature for update 1.13 is the addition of more custom loadout slots for players to further tune their player classes the way they wish. More slots means more nuanced gameplay opportunities and more ways to use the weapons and attachments that exist. Now that players have become accustomed to the game’s base weapons package, it makes sense to open things up to something more experimental. Given the recent extension of Modern Warfare Season 1, update 1.13 offers fans more than enough content to keep them busy for the next few weeks.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is available now on PS4, Xbox One and PC. Update 1.13 is rolling out on all platforms.
