First Call of Duty Update of 2025 Ushers in Squid Game Crossover, Increases Mantle Speeds, and Adds a New Wildcard
Call of Duty’s 1.065.000 is now installable, setting the Squid Game crossover for Black Ops 6 and Warzone live.
While the Squid Game crossover, alongside its controversial Event Pass, is the highlight of this update, it also makes a number of changes to the first-person shooter, as detailed in the patch notes on Activision's website.
Conspicuous by its absence is mention of anti-cheat after a troubling period for Call of Duty that's seen its hardcore community call on Activision to do more to prevent cheaters from impacting both Black Ops 6 and Warzone. Expect anti-cheat improvements from Season 2.
The 2.699GB patch (PS5) for the Call of Duty app, which must be downloaded whether you own Black Ops 6 or not, adds new Multiplayer and Zombies modes, the new High Roller Wildcard, and makes various balance changes to Scorestreaks. The patch notes in full are below.
NOTE: Some players may see their Operator selections and Operator customizations reset after this update.
