MODES
Rebirth Resurgence Extreme (Launch Week)Up to 99 players will drop onto Rebirth Island for an incredibly frenetic fight for supremacy, as they look to eliminate every last member of enemy squads to prevent them from getting a second, third or even forth chance at revenge. Just like Resurgence, squad members can spawn back in if their Rebirth Countdown hits zero and at least one of their allies is still alive, and specific Caches around the map will refresh their items frequently to ensure there is no shortage of firepower around the island.
Exfiltration (In Season)In this mode, a portable radio crackles into life, coming online somewhere in Verdansk. The Operator who secures this radio and holds onto it for a sufficient period of time automatically wins the game for their squad. To ensure their exfil isn’t by the book, anyone holding the radio is marked on the Tac Map as if they were under a Most Wanted Contract (High Value Target) with all Operators also receiving intel on how much longer the current radio holder has until they win. Other than this new win condition, the same Battle Royale rules apply. Expect a circle collapse and a winner to be determined by last squad standing, should nobody receive an early exfil with the radio.

MAP - POINTS OF INTEREST
ShipwreckThe doomed cargo tanker known as the Vodianoy has run aground in the low estuary of swamp ground less than a klick west of the Zordaya Prison Complex.

New Weapon Unlock Challenges added:Groza – ARMac-10 – SMG
Reactive Blueprints added:The Reactive property lets Operators display their skill in real-time by evolving their weapon’s appearance with kills during a match. For example, the “Vulture Exo” pulsates a green energy across the skeleton of a bird that wraps around the entire weapon. As an Operator earns kills, this energy shifts from blue to orange and eventually red, signifying how much of a hot hand they have in the match.

For the most part, the main feature of Call of Duty: Warzone update 1.32 is the above-mentioned Season 2 content. The LC10 SMG and FARA 83 AR offer some potentially interesting wrinkles to the meta, and the new points of interest like Shipwreck and Missile Silos bring fresh perspective to a Verdansk map that’s been in desperate need of an update since launching last year. In fact, the Verdansk update that arrives today is perhaps the biggest overhaul Warzone’s main map has seen since it made its debut nearly 12 months ago. The changes arrive at the sacrifice of a few less-dynamic landing spots, but it already seems like these latest locales might be worth the tradeoff. Aside from bringing in a completely new large-scale map, Warzone Season 2 offers just about everything a fan might want.
As far as the small tweaks and bug fixes are concerned, there are a couple noteworthy adjustments worth mentioning. Listed as Tactical Rifle Charlie, the AUG gets a nice little buff to stay competitive. Making the growing gas cloud more damaging is also an interesting choice given the continued emergence of Stim glitches over the past few months. Beyond those two important changes, though, the rest of update 1.32 is fairly ordinary. Like the latest update for Black Ops Cold War before it, the emphasis of this patch is clearly on the new content. Thankfully, that new content sounds pretty great.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available now on PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC.
