Warzone Season 6 patch notes were released Tuesday alongside the season itself. They include details about the underground trains now running around Verdansk, plus two new operators and two new guns.

Warzone Season 6 Patch Notes: Metro

The subway system, known in-game as the Metro, allows players to fast-travel around Verdansk. Metro stops are divided between existing points of interest and new locations added specifically to function as Metro stops. Players enter the Metro via staircases, and can find item spawns along station platforms.

The subway cannot travel anywhere outside of the safe zone, and won't move if players are fighting on the train.

Warzone Season 6 Patch Notes: Nikolai and Farah Join as Operators

Nikolai and Farah are the two operators arriving in Warzone Season 6. Farah, a Chimera operator and newcomer to the Call of Duty franchise, is unlocked at level 1 of the battle pass. Nikolai has appeared in several Modern Warfare games and is the leader of the Chimera faction; he can be unlocked at level 100 of the battle pass.

Each operator has three skins players can unlock.

Warzone Season 6 New Guns: SP-R 208 and AS VAL

The SP-R 208 sniper rifle and the AS VAL assault rifle are now available in-game for all Modern Warfare multiplayer game modes. The AS VAL features a built-in suppressor.

Warzone Season 6 Playlist Update Adds Armored Royale

Season 6 brings several changes to Modern Warfare and Warzone's playlists, including adding a new game mode to Warzone. Armored Royale gives every squad an armored Cargo Truck with a built-in turret. Squad members can respawn as long as their truck is still functional. Once it's destroyed, squad members can no longer return to the fight. The last team standing wins.
