Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War and Warzone fans are being treated to a big new update this week.
Adding a whole batch of free content, the new Call of Duty update will be available across Cold War and Warzone.
Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War and Warzone update 1.11 has a February 4 release date for fans living in the UK and Europe.
For most people, the new update – which weighs in at around 9GB – will be available to download and install from 7am GMT UK time.
It’s better news for PS5 or PS4 owners, who can pre-load the update ahead of its official launch.
Sadly, however, this same function isn’t available on PC or Xbox, where the update isn’t available until launch.
As you can see from the update 1.11 patch notes below, the new download adds a brand new multiplayer map and Zombies stage.
The new update also makes a ton of bug fixes and gameplay tweaks in pretty much every map and game mode.
You can see the early update 1.11 patch notes below…
