What is new in COD MW 1.30? (Updating..)
New Warzone Contents
New Map: Rebirth Island
Warzonedelivers with a mass of free content including an entirely new battle royale experience: Rebirth Island.
An illicit Soviet base raided and shut down by the CIA in 1968, during which Operator Russell Adler caught and forcefully interrogated the base commander Vikhor “Stitch” Kuzmin. The facility was rebuilt and recommissioned by Stitch in 1984 with one purpose: the creation and testing of the deadly Nova 6 gas.
Part prison, part chemical bioweapons manufacturing and testing facility, the entire island has dozens of locations to explore including laboratories, barracks, decontamination areas, and a hilltop prison block where unspeakable acts have been perpetrated.
Expect intense, close-quarter action with a similar playstyle toWarzone’sMini BR mode as Rebirth Island comes toWarzone. Planned playlists include Trios and Quads with a lower player count than in Verdansk, amping up the action and intensity.
To celebrate this newWarzonemap experience, expect an intense and rewarding limited-time event offering 16 challenges for those dropping into Rebirth Island for the first time. Earn Calling Cards, Charms, Emblems, Stickers, a special LMG Blueprint “Noxious”, along with additional secrets to uncover!
New Verdansk Gulag Experience
It’s time to step out of the Gulag showers as prisoners ofWarzoneare now dragged to an interrogation room, strapped to a chair, and thrown into an all-new Gulag where the 1v1 battle rules are similar, but the arena is completely different! Watch from the spectator gantry, spraying, punching, or lobbing rocks at adversaries before entering the secret training facility below: A new yet instantly familiar face-off in a Nuketown facsimile built by the Soviets who constructedBlack Ops Cold War’sAmerika Town!
The design is a makeshift replica of the original Nuketown map layout with both home interiors and backyard barricaded off, focusing the duel to a confined central arena. Prisoners must now weave through or around the parked bus and faux truck to meet their target or take a risk by climbing up one of the home’s awnings to get solid sightlines across the zone. As usual, the last Operator standing, or the one that grabs the central overtime flag, gets a second chance in Verdansk.
New Rebirth Island Gulag Experience (Launch Week)
There’s a second new Gulag coming toWarzone! Deep below the surface of Rebirth Island’s Prison Block, prisoners are dragged to an ominous new arena during traditional Battle Royale modes. This classified location has a grim history, as certain inmates were experimented on as part of Perseus’ plot to turn the tide of the Cold War.
This new 1v1 experience is centered around the chamber in question, with prisoners ofWarzonestarting on the end of one of two hallways that run parallel to the center room. Although these pathways offer a quick route across the floor, both of them have a metal detector that will go off whenever an Operator passes through, adding an additional element of strategy to this intense duel for survival. And remember: your fellow prisoners can still lob rocks down into the arena while they wait for their shot at a second chance.
New Game Mode: Resurgence (Launch Week)
Think you’re dead? It’s not over yet: This new game mode for Rebirth Island focuses on respawning as a key to victory. Scavenge caches and gear up as normal, hunt down other squads, and focus on dropping every last one of them, otherwise they’re liable to respawn and seek revenge!
· The Gulag is closed (likely for some deep fumigation).
· After taking out an enemy, you’ll gain a moment of extreme clarity on where the rest of that enemy team is located. Now finish them!
· If you’re taken down, there’s no time for a Gulag battle in this game mode! Instead, watch your squadmates and hope they survive for long enough as the Rebirth Countdown reaches zero, after which you automatically drop back into the fray.
New Vehicle: Attack Helicopter (In Season)
Bring death from above to Verdansk and Rebirth Island with the Attack Helicopter, the latest addition to theWarzone vehicle fleet! This airborne menace is built to similar specifications as the regular Helicopter, but with one major exception: Mounted on both of the helicopter’s side rails is a belt-fed minigun that can be controlled by a fellow squad member.
Finding an Attack Helicopter is not only a boon for those looking for a rapid travel option, but also raining down dozens of bullets on other squads without needing to use a primary or secondary weapon. Just know that this tiny terror is anything but subtle, especially when both miniguns are in use.
Black Ops Cold WarContent Integration: Additional Operators (Launch Week)
At the start of Season One, expect the Mil-Sim Operators Song (NATO) and Vargas (Warsaw Pact) to become available inWarzone, along with Stitch. All the other launch-dayBlack Ops Cold WarOperators are already available inWarzone, providing you unlock any necessary challenges related to them.
From this point, all futureBlack Ops Cold WarOperators will simultaneously appear inWarzoneonce any necessary unlock challenges are completed.
Black Ops Cold WarContent Integration: Over 30Cold WarWeapons! (Launch Week)
Expect a huge addition to yourWarzonearmory as a vast infusion of Cold War weaponry becomes available for you to use in your loadouts! Unless a weapon has a particular challenge needed to unlock it,Black Ops Cold WarPrimary and Secondary weapons – including Blueprint variants – will be accessible inWarzone.
Season One weapons such as the Groza AR and MAC 10 SMG become available in both games once you reach the specific Battle Pass Tiers needed to unlock them.
Black Ops Cold WarContent Integration: Progression (Launch Week)
The progression system that links XP betweenBlack Ops Cold War,Warzone, and evenModern Warfarebecomes available in Season One. Here’s what to expect:
When Season One drops, expect your Season Level to be synchronized across all three titles based on your current Season Level inBlack Ops Cold War. Note that all your previous unlocks (fromBlack Ops Cold WarandModern Warfare, such as Weapons, Perks, Scorestreaks, or Killstreaks) will remain unlocked.
From this point onward, playing in any of the three games counts toward player and Battle Pass progression, giving you the freedom to play as you wish. Here are some examples. You can:
·Play in Black Ops Cold Warand/orWarzoneand earn Battle Pass XP to unlock Tiers in the Season One Battle Pass.
·Play in Modern Warfareearn Battle Pass XP to unlock Tiers in the Season One Battle Pass, though these Battle Pass rewards are only accessible inBlack Ops Cold WarandWarzone.
· Use Black Ops Cold Warweapons and gain Weapon XP in eitherBlack Ops Cold WarorWarzone.
· Use Modern Warfareweapons and gain Weapon XP in eitherModern WarfareorWarzone.
· Earn XP in WarzoneorModern Warfareto increase your Season Levels and Prestige inBlack Ops Cold War.
