Call of Duty: Warzone merges with Vanguard Royale in latest update, adds new events — full patch notes

Warzone and Vanguard Royale are knee deep in Season Two: Reloaded, and today’s update finally brings the two modes together. Whichever you prefer playing, you’ll now be able to drop into both from the same place.

As Raven Software explains on its website, the team has intended to “merge the core and Vanguard Royale experiences into a single, coherent mode” since Season Two began. Today’s update is “the final step of the merger,” which adds Vanguard Royale’s public events to the general battle royale pool. That’s the main thrust of the update, although it also contains a number of fixes for collision, controls, and more. You can see the full patch note at the bottom of this article.

Next up for Warzone is Season Three, called Classified Arms. The start date is quite soon: Classified Arms kicks off on Wednesday, April 27. The latest trailer seemed like it was teasing a kaiju, so we only have about a week to go before King Kong or Godzilla potentially show up.
