Call of Duty Vanguard and Warzone Season Two – 30+ Improvements, Bug Fixes, and Our Thanks to the Community

• In addition to the recent RICOCHET Anti-Cheat PC kernel-level driver rollout in Warzone, over 30 improvements and bug fixes are coming at Season Two’s launch that will make Warzone more accessible and enjoyable for our community.
• All Vanguard and Warzone players can enjoy a Max 2XP Weekend, plus a free bundle and additional giveaways, as thanks from all of us at Call of Duty.

In December 2021, we launched the global rollout of the RICOCHET Anti-Cheat kernel-level driver on PC. This is one element of a multi-faceted anti-cheat security initiative, which also includes game monitoring, server security updates, account authentication updates, and more.

Since its launch, we have seen a significant drop in in-game cheat reporting, according to internal data. #TeamRICOCHET was able to catch and disable accounts quickly, bringing cheating within Warzone to an all-time low during the holiday break. We will share more information in a RICOCHET Anti-Cheat Progress Report in the Call of Duty blog dropping this weekend, which will include an overview of data collection and in-game mitigations, changes to our Security and Enforcement Policyand a reaffirmation of our commitment to prevent and combat cheating wherever possible.

Recently, we delayed the release of Season Two of Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone. This delay gave us time to include fixes and quality of life updates as outlined in our second status report on February 11along with official patch notes from Raven Software other Sledgehammer Games.

The entire Call of Duty team appreciates your patience over this past month and beyond – to show our thanks, we are excited to kick off the season with a weekend full of Double XP and free gifts for the community:
