How to play The Haunting: Zombie Royale in Warzone 2

Zombie Royale is set to take over the lands of Al-Mazrah and Vondel upon its release into the game. Within this mode, the dead shall walk the battlefield and haunt those who remain alive.

Players who succumb in this event will find that they have been reanimated as corpses to walk the earth. With the traditional route to the Gulag closed, the zombified players have been offered a single task of eliminating, or at least ensuring a painful death to all remaining Operators on the battlefield.

For those looking to rejoin the battle as humans, special syringes have been distributed across the map. They need to be collected by these corpses to be animated as human Operators.

Players who can survive the undead onslaught while fighting against the living foes will be crowned victors of the match. This upcoming event will undoubtedly bring many veteran Call of Duty players back to experience the nostalgic throwback it should provide.

Despite initially sounding like a self-centered mode, Warzone 2's upcoming Zombie Royale will require players to have dedicated and continuing communication and support from their teams and accordingly develop tactics to emerge as the victors of every match.
