Call of Duty: Season 4 Reloaded Content Revealed

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone's Season 4 Reloaded update delivers a massive content drop, including new game modes, weapons, and significant changes to the existing meta. Zombie enthusiasts will be particularly pleased with the addition of Unstable Rifts to Modern Warfare 3.

Recent weeks have been exciting for Call of Duty fans, marked by Season 4's initial launch and the unveiling of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Meanwhile, Sledgehammer Games and Infinity Ward are making substantial adjustments to Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone.

Activision's patch notes detail the additions: the Reclaimer 18 shotgun and Sledgehammer melee weapon, along with JAK Volkh and JAK Gunslinger aftermarket parts. A new Mutation mode removes tactical and lethal equipment from ground loot, requiring players to collect DNA for perks. Modern Warfare 3 Zombies introduces Unstable Rifts, a wave-based challenge rewarding insured weapon and schematic cooldown resets.

The update significantly alters the meta. The Kar98k, a recent top-tier sniper rifle, receives nerfs to its damage range and bullet velocity. Controller aim assist has also been adjusted. Conversely, several previously popular weapons receive buffs, including the FJX Horus, Striker, and Rival-9 SMGs, and the MTZ 762, MCW, Holger 556, and MTZ 556 rifles.
