The latest battle royale game from Activision, Warzone 2, was released on November 16, 2023, and has gained a massive player base since then. It is a free-to-play title and players won't have to own a copy of Modern Warfare 2 to access this game. Not only does the game come with traditional battle royale modes, but it also has an extraction-based mode called DMZ.

The free battle royale title was released simultaneously worldwide and it became available to all players at the same time, unlike the release of Modern Warfare 2, which was first made available to players in New Zealand and other timezones subsequently.
