Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone rolled out important patch updates on February 3, addressing key bugs and enhancing gameplay experiences. Following the eagerly awaited Season 2 launch, which enriched the game with new maps, modes, and operators, developers are keen to resolve persistent issues that continue to frustrate players.
Season 2 of Black Ops 6 introduced an abundance of content, including fresh maps, exciting game modes, and a variety of operator bundles. While players eagerly anticipate the mid-season update expected later this month, they have welcomed this new patch for its focus on fixing bugs and improving overall quality of life. Despite the improvements from Season 2, fans have expressed ongoing dissatisfaction regarding cheating and various bugs that plague both titles. Developers recognize the need for continued enhancements.
To address these concerns, Treyarch Studios and Raven Software have collaborated on a new update impacting all game modes: Multiplayer, Zombies, and Warzone. While the update does not include additional content, it encompasses crucial fixes, such as rectifying the Ranked Play cross-play feature that was improperly resetting upon game relaunch. Additionally, the much-requested vote to forfeit feature has been added to Ranked Play, allowing players to exit challenging matches more efficiently.
This latest patch also enhances the Zombies experience on the new map, The Tomb, and introduces general improvements. According to the official patch notes, accessible later in this article, the update fixes an issue with the Aether Lantern that could become unbreakable when frozen during a Constellation puzzle. Furthermore, an exploit related to the Hand Cannon has been resolved, ensuring more balanced gameplay.
For Warzone enthusiasts, the update brings a fresh wave of bug fixes and weapon balancing adjustments. Raven Software has notably modified several weapons, including the Model L, Jackal PDW, KSV, and Feng 82 from the Black Ops 6 and Warzone Season 2 Battle Pass. The details of these adjustments are elaborated upon below.

Ranked Play Enhancements
Vote to Forfeit has been a feature we aimed to integrate into Ranked Play, and we are thrilled to finally introduce it with Season 2. It can be incredibly frustrating to play out a match when a teammate disconnects, or when the match simply does not favor your team. Vote to Forfeit empowers players to end a match early and transition smoothly to the next game.

- Players can initiate a vote with their team to end a match if they find themselves in a difficult situation.
- Forfeit Votes are triggered through the in-game Options Menu, with each player allowed one vote per match.
- To participate in a Forfeit Vote initiated by a teammate, hold the designated button/key.
- Matches that end in forfeit will be counted as standard Ranked losses, with no penalties imposed.
- Forfeited matches will not incur SR losses if a teammate previously quit the game.
Zombies Improvements
Maps
- The Tomb
- Fixed an issue with an Aether Lantern that could become unbreakable if frozen before starting a Constellation puzzle.
Support Notes
We are dedicated to enhancing player experience in Zombies without compromising enjoyment through creative strategies or speedrunning tactics. This recent update addressed an unintentional exploit that undermined the designed challenge of the mode, ensuring that achievements in reaching high rounds or completing the Main Quest remains rewarding. Players should expect a consistent level of challenge that our designers intended.
To clarify, this is not a complaint from the zombies themselves.🙂
