Comments

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare's next patch is now live, alongside a couple of new weapons and camos. The update, announced by developer Infinity Ward on Reddit, includes a lot of bug fixes and tweaks but also a few substantial content additions. You can see the full patch notes at the bottom of this article.

Headlining the patch is the addition of Scorestreak Variants, which change the look and behavior of scorestreaks in the game. There are now Rare, Legendary, and Epic variants of scorestreaks, but you can only get the variants through crafting. They're essentially modifications for existing scorestreaks: for example, the Rare UAV variant is painted blue and lasts longer than the normal UAV, but it also has lower health, according to Reddit user xKevinn.

In addition, the patch includes a new voiceover pack from Ozzy Man Reviews, a popular YouTube personality. This is the latest pack to be added to Infinite Warfare; recently, Infinity Ward added a Method Man voiceover pack.

Finally, Infinity Ward also updated the Quartermaster with two new guns. The Auger is a chaingun-style LMG, while the Trencher is an SMG fitted with an under-barrel grenade launcher. There are also a number of new weapon camos and accessories available. You can check out the trailer for the Quartermaster update above.

In other Call of Duty news, Activision and developer Sledgehammer Games recently announced Call of Duty: WWII, which will launch on November 3. You can read more about the upcoming game here.
