How to change Operator Skin in lobby with Warzone 2 Season 5 update?

The latest patch for Season 5 will go live at 9 pm PST on August 2, 2023. With this patch, players will be able to change their operator skin directly from the lobby as they queue up for a game.

Previously, players had to redirect to the Operator tab on the in-game menu to actually make any cosmetic changes to their operators. However, though a minor addition, this little quality-of-life change goes a long way in having a more convenient approach to the whole issue.

According to the patch notes, two new vehicles have been added to this action-packed battle royale game, namely, the Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected, a.k.a, the MRAP and the Dirt Bike.

With the approximate size and shape of the Cargo Truck, equipped for heavy combat with additional armor plating and turrets, the MRAP is a slow, yet effective vehicle for attack or defense. According to the patch notes for Season 5, the MRAP showcases the following features within the game:

  • Grenade turret in the front, a machine gun turret at the back
  • MRAP drivers can launch smoke grenades
  • Spawns locked in Battle Royale and DMZ; key can be purchased at Buy Stations

Whereas, the Dirt Bike is a far more nimble means of transportation, capable of making hairpin turns and traversing across the map with great style and dexterity. Players rocking the Dirt Bike can perform approximately 9 tricks, which can yield them bonuses upon execution.
