The glitch is triggered by driving a vehicle into a specific out of bounds section on the Warzone map, according to Video Games Chronicle, citing multiple reports. Once done, all the players in the match are kicked out and returned to the lobby.

Infinity Ward has acknowledged the game-crashing glitch and is working on a fix for the issue. However, in the meantime, all vehicles in Warzone are temporarily removed.

Players do not gain any advantage by triggering the glitch, as they are also kicked out of the game like everyone else. However, this does not mean that it is not being exploited, just for the sake of frustrating other players.

Infinity Ward has not provided a timeframe for when the fix will be rolled out so that vehicles can finally return to Warzone. Digital Trends has reached out to publisher Activision for information, and we will update this article as soon as we hear back.

Warzone with Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War

Call of Duty: Warzone has served as one of the sources for information on Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, the next game in the series. Infinity Ward narrative director Taylor Kurosaki previously said that Warzone will continue after 2020, and will be the “one constant” across future Call of Duty games.

Black Ops Cold War will launch for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on November 13, and later on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is coming to Xbox Game Pass at launch

After days of speculation, Xbox confirmed that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will come to Xbox Game Pass at launch. Xbox has not specified which platforms it will come to, though.

When Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 was officially announced last week, fans immediately began speculating about its Game Pass status. It's the first Call of Duty title released since Microsoft successfully acquired Activision Blizzard, so a Game Pass launch seemed likely. While the announcement was initially leaked by a Game Pass notification, Xbox has now officially confirmed that the game is bound for the service.

Will Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 be on Xbox Game Pass?

Activision Blizzard, which is now owned by Microsoft, has just confirmed that the next Call of Duty game is titled Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. There's been one major point of contention ahead of this year's Call of Duty: Will it be on Xbox Game Pass at launch? A new report from The Wall Street Journal suggests that is the case.

Historically, Microsoft has added all its first-party games from Xbox Game Studios and Bethesda to Game Pass the day they launched. That applies to big AAA releases like Starfield, as well as more experimental titles like 2022's Pentiment and Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2, which came out this week. Microsoft's public messaging thus far has teased that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will come to the Xbox Game Pass. That said, Microsoft has not officially confirmed it, so there have been conflicting reports on this actually being the case.

Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile is out to eliminate mobile gaming’s stigma

Gameplay from Call of Duty: Warzone mobile

Activision may be under new ownership at Xbox, but that’s not slowing down its flagship series. After a few years in development, Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile is finally launching worldwide under the Microsoft banner. It’s a major moment for the shooter series that’s endured multiple industry changes over its long lineage. The new mobile game is the latest evolution for Call of Duty, bringing a high-quality battle royale experience to phones.

The importance of that evolution isn’t lost on Chris Plummer, the co-head of mobile at Activision. In an interview with Digital Trends ahead of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile’s launch, Plummer painted a picture of how much has changed in the game industry since Call of Duty Mobile launched in 2019. An industry-shifting war between Epic Games and Apple, an enormous acquisition that’s turned Xbox into a mobile king, and a gradual shift in the general attitude towards mobile games -- all of that has led to this moment. Plummer believes that the old days of players bemoaning cash-grab mobile games are coming to an end. The industry just needed its killer app; he believes Warzone Mobile could be that game.
