Call of Duty: Squid Game Update – New Modes and Gameplay Changes
The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone update, launched January 3rd, brings a major Squid Game collaboration and significant gameplay changes. Mantle speeds are increased, and doors can be opened/closed while sprinting. A new Cleaver melee weapon is unlockable via the Squid Game event pass.
New Game Modes
Multiplayer boasts new Squid Game-themed modes: Red Light, Green Light and Roulette Handgun (in Pentathlon). Roulette Handgun offers a powerful weapon with a self-destruct risk.
Zombies introduces Dead Light, Green Light. Players earn kills during Green Light, but moving during Red Light drains essence. A difficult zombie wave ensues during Dead Light.
Warzone on the Urzikstan map features a rotating series of Squid Game challenges, with Red Light, Green Light triggered between rounds. The update also includes several bug fixes.
Other Updates
Scorestreak tuning includes RC-XD damage reduction and fewer Scout Pulses in Care Packages. Sentry Turret HP and fire rate are increased, as is Watchdog Helo damage. Note: Operator selections and customizations may reset for some players.
The full patch notes are available on the Activision website. The second season of Squid Game is out now, with season 3 planned for later this year.
