Activision Backtracks On Controversial New Call Of Duty: Warzone Feature After Backlash

Activision has announced that a major change to Call of Duty: Warzone is not moving ahead as planned. The "Covert Exfil" feature for the battle royale game, which would allow players to "win" a match by taking a helicopter ride out of the battlefield, is not coming to Warzone as part of the Season 1 Reloaded update.

The developer was planning to allow players to purchase covert exfils from buy stations before the gulag closes, with only five available per match.

This wouldn't be counted as a traditional "win," however, but it was planned to be another way to make it out of the match alive beyond becoming the final player or team left standing.

Additionally, Activision was planning to introduce a new high-value weapon case to Warzone tied to covert exfil. The idea was that players would fight to obtain this case and call in a covert exfil prior to the traditional end of a match as another way to have fun in Warzone without being the last player or team alive.
