Call Of Duty Warzone December 15 Patch Notes: New Map Caldera's First Bugs Squashed

The latest weekly patch for Call of Duty: Warzone has gone live, the first involving the game's newest map Caldera, and there are a few big changes coming.

Among the major fixes are the removal of areas where players could see and shoot through certain obstacles on the field, creating an unfair advantage. Another fix will prevent players from using an exploit that allowed players to duplicate weapons.

Another big change from this patch involves the Automaton Assault Rifle, which is seeing its recoil increased and move speed decreased for its 6.5mm Sakura 75 Round Drums attachment, making players slower when using it.

This is the first weekly patch for Call of Duty Warzone since the new Caldera map launched on December 9. Caldera is Warzone's second-ever map, following Verdansk and its multiple iterations that launched with Warzone on March 10, 2020.

The full patch notes for the Warzone December 15 patch are below.
