Call of Duty: MW3 and Warzone Release Season 4 Reloaded Patch Notes

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone's Season 4 Reloaded update delivers a massive content drop, including new game modes, weapons, and a highly anticipated Zombies feature. The update follows the recent Season 4 launch and the unveiling of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 at the Xbox Games Showcase.

Activision's patch notes detail significant additions and adjustments. Two new weapons—the Reclaimer 18 shotgun and the Sledgehammer melee weapon—join the arsenal, along with JAK Volkh and JAK Gunslinger aftermarket parts. A new Mutation mode removes tactical and lethal equipment from ground loot, replacing it with a DNA-based perk system. Modern Warfare 3 Zombies introduces Unstable Rifts, wave-based challenges rewarding insured weapon cooldown resets.

The meta will shift considerably. The Kar98k's performance has been significantly reduced, while popular SMGs (FJX Horus, Striker, Rival-9) and rifles (MTZ 762, MCW, Holger 556, MTZ 556) receive buffs. Controller aim assist adjustments are also included.
