Season 1 Reloaded has arrived to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone, but game-breaking bugs and other critical issues have forced delays to major parts of content for this midseason update. Here’s everything you need to know.
As previously announced, Warzone’s big update includes some major bugs affecting the game’s playability. The developer is aware of multiple issues, including crashing, bugged loadout drops, an issue causing distorted geography, and the game’s Precision Airstrike killstreaks no longer giving an alert to targeted players.
In a more recent update, the developer has announced a delay to Warzone’s new Champion’s Quest nuke challenge while other performance-related issues are being investigated.

Warzone might be the biggest mess of the Season 1 Reloaded update, but Modern Warfare 3’s multiplayer content is also affected. The game’s competitive Ranked Play mode was scheduled to launch sometime today, but a new update from the developer announces a delay to the mode while an investigation is done on a “recently discovered critical issue.”

Some parts of the midseason update are still live and playable. Players can use superpowers in Modern Warfare 3’s limited-time Supe’d Up multiplayer mode inspired by The Boys TV show, and Zombies mode has a new Warlord boss to fight.
