New POI: Urzikstan Superstore Returns (Launch)

Welcome to the Atlas Superstore, inspired by the original Superstore in Verdansk, and home to all your Call of Duty: Warzone shopping needs. Whether it be a rare weapon, a new perk set, a fresh set of armor plates, or some other coveted item, the Superstore has what you need to secure the win. Stay tuned to your surroundings as other squads are bound to heed the same shopping impulse.

Just south of the Orlov Military Base, Superstore is located in the central-eastern side of Urzikstan. Landing on the large roof from the plane or via redeploy is the quickest way to get into the Superstore. It’s a large two-story building with a good amount of cover via the skylights and air A/C units, but your goal should be to get inside as quickly as possible.

From the roof there are four different entry points, so find them and get through as soon as you can. You can also enter from Al-Sada Village via a zipline. However, from the ground there are more than 10 different entrances, so there’s always another way in nearby.

Once inside, if you’ve used any of the main entrances, you may have a moment of peace as you loot because of how large the Superstore really is. It feels even larger due to the many aisles and staff and storage rooms there are that make up the Superstore. Check every corner and keep your head up as you venture through the building because enemy players can be hiding in one of many locations built into this incredible POI.

Entering from the ground floor, you’re positioned in one of the corners which can be used as cover to protect your squad’s six, but also to breach and clear one quadrant at a time. Entering from the second floor, you’ll encounter an office or break room that overlooks a portion of the main floor. Use these angles to call a cleanup on aisle 4 while you loot to your heart’s content.

Call of Duty: Warzone Modes, Features, and Public Events

Superstore Resurgence (Urzikstan, Launch)

Break in the new Superstore POI with a dedicated Resurgence mode. This is a custom-made experience focusing on the Superstore POI, dropping 28 players into a ten-minute match with the emphasis on who can control the roof and aisles and other chokepoints throughout the location.

Compact combat, vicious firefights, and rapid pacing make this an instantly satisfying mode you can drop into again and again. This is also the perfect training ground to explore the classic area whether you’ve battled across these aisles before or it’s your first time browsing.

Supreme Resurgence (Rebirth Island, Mid-Season)

Supreme Resurgence is back! In this mode, Rebirth Island is filled with exceptional ground loot. This includes powerful meta-inspired Weapon Blueprints with cool camos; there’s a premium price for Loadouts, so obtaining these weapons is recommended. Experience these and other changes to the Resurgence formula including additional health for all Operators.

Plus, players who win their first match in Supreme Resurgence will unlock the “Spilled Beans” Weapon Camo.

New Public Event: Bounty Contest (Resurgence Modes, Launch)

Prepare for heated battle when the Bounty Contest Public Event activates in Resurgence. When this occurs, every squad is instantly given a Bounty Contract to complete within the designated time. Eliminate the target to accrue kudos as well as some in-game cash, then move onto the next squad member, progressing until you’ve wiped out the whole squad. With every squad sent on a Bounty at once, expect fierce fighting to occur across the map. Squads going on a Bounty streak should also expect to rack up some serious money at a seriously quick pace!

New Feature: Redeploy Drone Beacon (R.D.B.) Field Upgrade (All Modes, Launch)

Throw out a line when you need it using the new portable R.D.B. Field Upgrade. Once deployed, it can be used by the whole squad to evade incoming dangers, seek out new looting areas, or to reposition for a stronger attack.

New Feature: Elite Contracts (All Modes, Mid-Season)

Complete Elite Contracts to earn a variety of rewards listed below. The Elite Contract is no easy task; the time given to complete one is reduced compared to a normal Contract. Providing you prove your mettle, an Elite cache drops into the AO, with Bonus XP, Cash, and one of the following:

Foresight Killstreak

Multiple Redacted Weapons

Specialist Perk Package

Advanced UAV

New Public Event: Recon Flyover (All Modes, Mid-Season)

There’s no place to hide during a Recon Flyover, so get out there and fight. When this event is activated, two waves of Advanced UAVs highlight scanned Operators as red player arrows – with the recon zone shown as a red circle in your mini-map – and fly towards them. If you’re caught in this Recon, you will be exposed to other players. Use the intel to reassess your plan, seeking the best ground to engage imminent danger.
