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 update. The update follows the recent Season 4 launch and the reveal 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, a wave-based challenge rewarding insured weapon and schematic cooldown resets.

The meta will shift considerably. The Kar98k's performance has been toned down, reducing its damage range and bullet velocity. Controller aim assist adjustments have also been implemented. Conversely, several previously popular weapons, including the FJX Horus, Striker, and Rival-9 SMGs, along with several rifles, have received buffs.
