Call of Duty: Warzone Season 4 - The Overlook and New Gameplay Features

2025-05-30 12:22:15

The launch of Call of Duty: Warzone Season 4 has captivated the battle royale community with the introduction of The Overlook, a towering new Point of Interest (POI) in Verdansk. Activision recently confirmed that the season would begin on May 29, followed by a detailed breakdown of patch notes outlining the new content, modes, and gameplay adjustments arriving with the Warzone update.

Among the major gameplay additions is the return of Clash Mode, a 52v52 team deathmatch set across familiar POIs like Quarry and Promenade. Later in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 4, players will also experience Havoc Royale, a limited-time mode for quads featuring shifting gas circle modifiers that force squads to adapt their strategies. Additionally, new gear and systems are being introduced, including the Care Package Killstreak for rare loot, the Loot Master Perk for enhanced cache rewards, and an update to Search and Destroy Contracts—now available in Battle Royale, Resurgence, and Plunder modes.

The standout feature of Season 4 is The Overlook. This colossal structure now stands as the tallest building in Call of Duty: Warzone's Verdansk, more than doubling the height of any other landmark on the map. It replaces previous icons like Burger Town and introduces a fresh layer of vertical gameplay. Players will discover ziplines, operational cranes, a skydeck, and a penthouse within the tower. Since the Season 4 update went live, players have flocked to The Overlook, as highlighted in a CharlieINTEL post on Twitter captioned, "Entire lobbies are landing on the new Overlook." Accompanying footage shows numerous players parachuting onto the skyscraper, with midair skirmishes erupting as everyone races to land first.

Many players in the comment section expressed excitement about the changes, with one saying, "Can't wait to play this evening!" and another calling the new POI "interesting." However, some also voiced concerns that the location might attract campers due to its layout. Still, the strong player response isn't surprising - The Overlook was widely expected to be one of Warzone's most action-packed additions yet.

Still, not everything has gone smoothly. Warzone's Ranked Play didn't launch on time due to performance issues the developers are currently looking into, which caused frustration among players, especially after past problems with the mode. Raven Software also removed Solos from the Battle Royale playlist, a decision that didn't sit well with fans. The developers say they're paying close attention to community feedback. So, while Season 4 has brought some exciting changes, there are still a few things players hope will be addressed soon.
