Raven Software listened to community feedback and made a perk permanent, and showed some love to Urzikstan after ignoring the large-scale map for two consecutive seasonal updates.

Increased Play count

In an effort to enhance the Battle Royale experience on Urzikstan, we’ve decided to increase the number of players in each match from 100 to 120.

Urzikstan bunker update

Increased activity across Urzikstan seems to be focused on the Bunkers dotted across the warzone. After keycard access is obtained, an expanded interior may be accessible, along with high-level loot and additional intel regarding the location of [[REDACTED]]. Secondary Bunker exit hatches are likely to be active, allowing your squad multiple methods of escape. However, not all Bunkers appear to be accessible. Further investigation, and great care, is needed to solve this conundrum.

Urzikstan gulag update

Additional Gulag silos have opened up during Urzikstan Battle Royale matches, and recon teams have confirmed four different variants. Expect to randomly drop into one of them, offering you new ways to approach your 1v1 duel for redeployment.

Buy back royale solos

Following the regular Battle Royale rules, this Urzikstan-only mode disables the Gulag, and instead allows you to return to a match after dying, along with a removal of some of your collected Cash reserves. Multiple redeployments are available until the final moments of a match (around the same time the Gulag closes in regular Battle Royale), allowing for a more risky, aggressive strategy and higher eliminations if you’ve the funds for it.

Call of Duty: Warzone Rewards

Accessible in the “Call of Duty: Warzone Rewards” section of the Challenges Menu, there are five different types of Challenge to complete, each granting a reward:

Economics: These offer rewards in return for looting and spending Cash at Buy Stations.
Contracts: Unlock items for completing different types (and numbers) of Contracts.
Social: Interact with enemy players or aid your team to secure more item rewards.
Mode: Complete tasks in different game modes, from Battle Royale to Plunder to Resurgence.
Champion’s Quest: Is a Champion’s Quest active in your game? Then check these Challenges out!

Specialist perk

Operators dropping into Urzikstan can now obtain the legendary and most prized Perk possession, the Specialist Perk suitcase. This rare ground loot grants you the advantages of the following 29 additional Perks, but only for the remainder of the match:

Perk Slots 1 and 2 (all Perks active): Battle Hardened, Double Time, E.O.D., Focus, Irradiated, Mechanic, Mountaineer, Scavenger, Shrapnel, Sleight of Hand, Spotter, Strong Arm.
Perk Slot 3 (all Perks active): Cold-Blooded, Escapist, Payout, Primed, Quick Fix, Resupply, Stalker, Survivor, Tempered, Tracker.
Perk Slot 4 (all Perks active): Birdseye, Combat Scout, Flex, Ghost, High Alert, Resolute, Shrouded.

Tactical sprint boots

Urzikstan-based Operators can look forward to infiltrating any of the accessible bunkers to obtain the Tactical Sprint Boots Perk, which will give you an unlimited increase in your Tactical Sprint speed, and a reduction in fall damage.

New vehicle: Polaris RZR

The ultimate combination of power, strength, and control has arrived in Call of Duty: Warzone! The Polaris RZR Pro R, a real-world side-by-side UTV offering immediate acceleration, nimble handling, and rugged durability is available as a Land Vehicle within Urzikstan. Appearing as “Polaris RZR” on your Tac-Map, this side-by-side differs from the current in-game UTV as it offers a tighter turning circle and handling, three seats and improved fuel economy. Currently available in Urzikstan in any color as long as it’s gray.

Loot hot zones

Designated points of interest on the map may identified as “Loot Hot Zones.” Get there before the enemy and you’ll be rewarded with higher tier loot than normal. Just be prepared for a vicious battle over who gets to claim this enhanced gear!

Season 4 Ranked Play Resurgence

Call of Duty: Warzone Ranked Play: Resurgence continues on Rebirth Island, and the ruleset remains the same; drop in and battle your way to the Top 250 players worldwide and earn a variety of rewards for both Ranking up and advancing through the Skill Divisions.
