Call of Duty Warzone Season 2: Reloaded will tweak the Rebirth Island map and several modes as part of a mid-season update coming Wednesday, March 23.

A new post on the Call of Duty blog outlined the big update, which will also make some sizable additions and changes to Call of Duty Vanguard itself, including a new 12v12 mode, more vehicles, another division for ranked play, and some Vanguard Zombies niceties. 

Warzone, meanwhile, is focusing on Rebirth Island Reinforced, a "facelift" for the map said to "significantly alter" points of interest such as the Stronghold, which has been expanded with new sightlines and added verticality, while adding a new one simply called the Dock. GamesRadar's Josh West reckons Rebirth Island Reinforced will be a make-or-break moment for his enjoyment of the game, and he's certainly not the only one hoping to see the map shake things up in a meaningful way. 

Shared updates between Warzone and Vanguard include the free gun Armaguerra 43 and – checks notes – a Snoop Dogg skin. The famous rapper hasn't appeared in a Call of Duty game since the Snoop Dogg voice pack released for Call of Duty: Ghosts, and this time he's a full-fledged Operator arriving in Warzone and Vanguard on April 19, and in Call of Duty Mobile beginning April 1.
