The latest patch for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and the battle royale game Warzone is out now. The May 18 update introduces brand new maps for Modern Warfare, a new battle royale mode and the addition of an Armor Box item in Warzone, balance adjustments across both games, and a few other changes. The update is available now so if you own Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and/or Warzone on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, you should be able to download it the next time you load up the game, but be aware--it's a fairly large download size, weighing in at a massive 30.86 GB on Xbox One. Expect a similar size on PS4 and PC as well. However, if you only have Warzone installed, it should be smaller. Infinity Ward has posted the full patch notes for the update, which you can see below. For more Call of Duty, check out the latest news detailing the next Call of Duty game, reportedly titled Black Ops: Cold War.

　　Now Playing: New Call Of Duty Multiplayer Maps & Warzone Gulag Changes This Week - GS News Update

　　Additionally, a new DLC pack, "Fearless", is available for the Call of Duty Endowment charity, with all proceeds going towards helping veterans find work. Spec Ops also gets a new mode with "Modified" missions that include special variants like headshots-only and more.

　　The Warzone battle royale mode adds a number of new features with this update, including an Armor Box that players can find as loot or purchase through Buy Stations. This box resupplies your entire team's armor, so it could prove to be very useful on the battlefield. Additionally, Most Wanted contracts have returned, while there are now more Gulag loadouts including six different assault rifles and four SMGs. The update also appears to have opened the vaults, which are accessible through finding the right keycard. Once you find your way in, you can claim a treasure trove of loot.

　　The May 18 update also fixes a number of bugs, including exploits that could allow players to access points outside of the map. A rare bug in Warzone that traps players in the Gulag for the entire match has also been fixed with this update.

　　There are some weapon balance changes, too. The FAL and SCAR weapons now have decreased aim-down-sight times, while the penalty for holding your breath too long while using a sniper rifle has been reduced. The VLK Rogue sees its rate of fire increased, while the Holger 26's recoil has been reduced.

　　Since the patch first hit, Infinity Ward has also issued a subsequent playlist update to fix a few issues, including matches in Battle Royale's Trios not starting. You can see the complete patch notes below, as posted by Infinity Ward.
