Warzone component kicked off its Season 1 multiplayer today, marking its first major update since launch. The former gets three new maps as part of its 24/7 playlist, in addition to a 6v6 arena set in Rio, which will be available later in the season. As usual, there are some rewards for racking up kills without dying, granting players an EMP upon getting a 13 killstreak and the ability to summon mosquito swarms as cover on a 15 killstreak. There's also a new perk called the Assassin Vest, which makes players immune to UAV scans and doesn't pop skulls on the minimap upon performing an execution.

The three new maps take you to a coastal town in ‘Greece', a blood-drenched close-quarters slaughterhouse called ‘Meat', and a ‘Training Facility' set in a warehouse that enables 2v2 gunfights. Building on that, Dune 2.
