Console gaming performance
Finally ! After weeks of complaints from console players who were affected by numerous issues in Warzone, the first specific improvements have finally been rolled out.
While PC gamers face their fair share of challenges as well, Xbox and PlayStation gamers have seen much worse.
Regular crashes, graphical bugs, and general performance issues have plagued Warzone since the Season 1 update. This mid-season patch should therefore begin to address “a number” of these console issues.
These fixes are the first in a series and will not address all concerns at once.
We appreciate your patience as we work on providing everyone with a fun, uninterrupted time in Caldera.
