The Gas Mask animation, which players have criticized since Warzone's 2020 debut, will now fade in and out dynamically, resolving the vision obstruction issue during crucial moments in the game. Developer Raven Software detailed in the patch notes that this Quality of Life improvement allows players to use the gas mask without it disrupting their gameplay vision. Alongside this, Season 5 introduces significant weapon balance adjustments and user interface enhancements. This update arrives just ahead of the new Call of Duty mainline game, Black Ops 6, and its integration into Warzone.
