The leaks continue to mount forCall of Duty: Warzone,the upcoming but yet to be confirmed battle royale forCall of Duty: Modern Warfare. Fans are searching everywhere for details they can find onWarzone,a treasure hunt with an added urgency since arecent teaser from Infinity Ward. In searching for hints, YouTuber IceManIsaac recently made a rather intriguing discovery while playing the game.
Modern Warfareallows for various custom game settings, some of which provide gameplay that isn’t available in normal playlists. Apparently, one of those settings is a last-man-standing ability that is unlike anything that a coreCall of Dutyhas implemented for its standard multiplayer. On top of that, dozens of unseen animations that point toWarzoneapplication have been uncovered as well.

In the past, when last-man-standing is in core multiplayer, the player usually pulls out a pistol and has the ability to take a few shots before bleeding out. In the case of this discoveredModern Warfaresetting, players only have their fists out, but they can swing to punch and down enemies who are nearby. Additionally, instead of simply bleeding out, theoretically, the downed player could be picked up by a teammate just like any battle royale,or likeBlack Out, the battle royale forCall of Duty: Black Ops 4.
Just like in multiplayer, where executions are used for added flair (and possibly comical failure), there are executions that are specific to downed enemies who are in last-man-standing mode. Each operator inModern Warfarehas its own execution, and the video highlights each of the brand new last-man-standing executions–and they are brutal. This is certainly exciting because not only have these executions not been seen, they point out yet more evidence thatWarzonespecific data is hiding in the game and just waiting to be released.
TheseWarzonefindings have been seemingly leaked or discovered daily. So much so that Activision hastaken action against some of the leakers, much to the dismay of some of the fanbase. Perhaps Activation and Infinity Ward have been attempting to keep a tight lid on Warzone information, but the longer the “classified” section of the main menu remains, the more players will wonder just what is hiding behind the curtain.
Fans may not have to wait much longer, as a prominent leaker has revealed what he believes to be therelease date for the game. In the meantime, players will continue to seek out details on this exciting new battle royale, which is only proof that the hype level is high forWarzone, but also that Infinity Ward has high expectations that they are going to need to meet.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
