Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded patch notes: All changes in the Battle Royale
The Boys crossover and Temp V Field Upgrades
Trending
Secure the W with superpowers while in the Warzone. Upon consuming the new Temp V Field Upgrade, Players are granted one of four random superpowers. These powers don’t act like a usual Field Upgrade, though… Once you use Temp V, you’re then free to activate this power whenever you wish. But if you’re eliminated from combat before activating the power, then like a normal Field Upgrade, it is lost upon death.
The four different superpowers you can get from Temp V:
- Charge Jump - This ability propels the Player across the map without suffering any fall damage and dealing splash damage in a radius when they land.
- Electric Shockwave - This shockwave sends a powerful electrical explosion that injures Operators and AI Combatants, as well as destroys Vehicles and Equipment.
- Laser Vision - This ability levitates the Player and fires an aimed laser beam that sears through enemy targets.
- Teleport - This ability warps the Player straight up into the air.
Temp V is accessible in all Warzone Playlists, including DMZ, except Ranked Play. Temp V is limited in DMZ by effect (such as no Charge Jump) and scarcity.

Adjustments
All Maps | All Modes
- Armor/Ammunition Boxes Quality of Life
- Lethal and Tactical Equipment refill behavior will now match Ammunition.
- Armor and Ammunition Boxes will now drop additional items that do not fit into the active Loadout slots to the ground - leaving Players to choose whether or not to stow them in the Backpack.
- Redeployment Elevation
- The elevation at which Players redeploy to the field will now reduce by 9% of the initial elevation each circle.
- This reduction stops at Circle 8 and remains constant for the remainder of the match.
- The total difference in height from the start of the match until the last adjustment is approximately 60%.
Speaking about the Redeployment Elevation, the developers had this to say;
"We have seen an increase in players staying in an airborne state to exploit the aerial advantage in order to obtain a better final placement. We feel this goes against the spirit of a Battle Royale experience, so by lowering the redeployment height with each circle closure, we will see a better representation of fairness between being airborne vs. being on the ground."
- Gas Mask Quality of Life
- The Gas Mask animation that automatically starts while Players are airborne will be interrupted if a Player decides to pull their parachute.
- Birdseye Perk
- When using a UAV in combination with Birdseye, Players under the effect of Ghost are now revealed to that Player. Regarding this change, here's what the developers said:
"We want to provide a hard counter to Ghost to offer more variety in the rock-paper-scissors encounters of Battle Royale and open up more play styles."
- Medicine Cabinets
- Reduced the number of Stims that spawn from Medicine Cabinets to 1, down from 2.
Vondel | All Modes
- Cash Increase
- The minimum amount of Cash that Players will find has been increased to $500, up from $100.
