Loadout, AI and Looting Changes Seemingly Coming to Warzone 2 Before Launch

It appears Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 could be a much different game on day one than the version Activision showed off during its Next showcase.

As revealed initially during the event, Warzone 2 was perhaps much more of a stark break-off from the original Warzone than most of the community expected. Loadouts were completely ousted, Fortnite-esque NPCs were scattered throughout the map and the looting UI was expanded to that of PUBG: Battlegrounds.

According to a new leak, however, it appears Infinity Ward just might be turning its back on a lot of these new features ahead of the game's launch.

The apparent leak was tweeted Tuesday evening by Warzone content creator Metaphor, and simply included four sequences of cryptic emojis.

Before long, however, many in the COD community seemingly cracked the code.

In less than 10 minutes, @zotroza replied with the following:

  • No AI on map
  • AI still in Strongholds
  • Loadout and Perks
  • Old Looting? No menu when looting?

Metaphor then replied with just a bell emoji, seemingly confirming that they were right on the money.

As such, it appears Warzone 2 could be pretty similar to the original Warzone experience after all.

Ultimately, it is hard to argue which direction Infinity Ward should be going in with its new flagship battle royale experience, but it should certainly try to appeal to as many players as it can considering the original Warzone will seemingly be all but gone once its sequel launches.

Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 is scheduled to release for PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (via Battle.net and Steam) on Nov. 16, 2022.
