Warzone is Activision’s free battle royale inside the Call of Duty franchise. Large squads drop into a big map, loot weapons and cash, earn money in contracts and try to be the last team alive. It uses the series’ fast, polished gunplay, which is the main reason people choose it over slower alternatives such as PUBG: Battlegrounds.

How it plays

  • Battle royale: The core mode, with squads of various sizes and a shrinking circle.
  • Gulag and respawns: Fallen players can often fight for a second chance rather than being out immediately.
  • Loadouts: You can drop in with custom weapon builds in many modes.
  • Seasonal updates: Maps, weapons and events rotate through the year.

Installing on PC

  1. Warzone is delivered through the Call of Duty app. On Steam, search for “Call of Duty”; on Battle.net, the same title appears in its game list.
  2. Open the official Warzone page from the Download button below for the current launcher options.
  3. Install the free app, sign in with an Activision account and pick Warzone from its menu.

System requirements

According to Steam’s listing for Call of Duty, the minimum is 64-bit Windows 10, an AMD Ryzen 5 1400 or Intel Core i5-6600, 8 GB of RAM, a Radeon RX 470, GeForce GTX 970 or 1060, or Intel Arc A580, and about 115 GB of storage. The app is large, so plan the disk space first.

Costs and cautions

Warzone is free; skins and Battle Passes are optional purchases. The Call of Duty app also bundles paid campaign and multiplayer releases, which you do not need for Warzone. Download only from the official stores listed on callofduty.com.
