Customize Your Loadout (Optional)

Customize Attachments
You can tweak the custom loadout from the Weapons tab before starting the match, especially if you're planning on getting and using them to win. Customize your loadout to bring out the best gun possible on Battle Royale.

Default loadouts are somehow reliable, and you can use them as is if you don't want to spend time experimenting with your weapons.

Battle Royale Main Objectives

Loot to Get Stronger Weapons

Warzone 2.0 - Loot the Best Weapons
You should prioritize looting items early in the match rather than seeking engagements and looking for kills. It is a safe, optimal move as you will have better chances of getting the best items as long as you're alive.

You can find these items inside houses, buildings, crates, and more, and they're all over the map!

Stay Inside the Safe Zone

Modern Warfare 2 - Merge
As time goes on, the Safe Zone or the Circle will start shrinking and collapsing, which limits the playing area for all the Operators on the field. Make sure to get inside the Safe Zones before the deadly smoke reaches you to avoid getting damaged and dying.

Engage Enemies

Sooner or later, you will have to face enemies in a shootout as the deadly gas will start covering the whole Al Mazrah map. However, it is best to engage with enemies mid to endgame to secure a higher ranking at the end.

Play on Gulag After Dying to Respawn

Warzone 2.0 - Gulag
If you die, assuming that is your first one, you will be sent to Gulag to battle against other players in a 2v2 match. The winning team will respawn back to Al Mazrah to fight with their team again!

Be the Last Man Standing to Win

Warzone 2.0 - Battle Royale 5th Place

Try your best to survive both the deadly gas and other teams to win in the Battle Royale. Use everything on your loadout and get on the best spot to kill enemies to become victorious!

Battle Royale Side Objectives

Complete Contracts

Warzone 2.0 - Contracts
There will be tons of contract phones that you can get to do special missions. Some contracts will net you some cash, which you can use on Buy Stations to get your customized loadout and other unique equipment.

Clear Stronghold Areas

After the starting circle collapses, three Strongholds will appear on the map. You can clear one with your team to get better items as you progress into the match. However, it's risky as there will be tons of enemies, including other players clearing them for the rewards.

Battle Royale Tips


Stick to your Teammates

Warzone 2.0 - Stick to Your Teammates
Battle Royale is a game mode that requires good coordination with your teammates to win the battle, which you can only do if you're sticking close to your teammates. There are several benefits when you're with your teammates, such as getting rescued if you fall in battle or receiving cover fire if you ever run into an enemy.

Invite Others or Play with Random Players

Modern Warfare 2 - Invite to Channel
Play with your friends or match with random players to increase your chances of winning in Battle Royale, especially on Trios or Quads queues. Communicate with them using the Chat or Ping System for better gameplay on the battlefield.

Unfortunately, there is a bug affecting the party invitation on the game, but you can bypass this by using the Channel feature to get and play on the same team.

Use the Ping System

Warzone 2.0 - Use Ping System
The Ping system is a very useful tool for communicating on the battlefield. If you prefer not to use text chat or voice chat, you can rely on the Ping system to show your intentions to your teammates. Pinging an enemy also tracks it down for a couple of seconds, providing solid info on the enemy's whereabouts, even if it's only for a short time.

How to Ping Enemies

Loot the Best Weapons and Equipment

RPK LMG
Battle Royale favors players with good loadout and equipment setup to win the match. Search the map for those items or you can steal them from your enemies by eliminating them.
