One of Call of Duty: WWII’s most hyped features is the new Headquarters social space, where up to 48 players can hang out and engage in various friendly competitions. Or, at least, that was the promise. Headquarters were beset with issues at launch, forcing developer Sledgehammer Games to make them single-player only. Things have improved in fits and starts since then, but now, with this new update, Headquarters have finally been fully restored (almost a month after launch).

　　In addition to Headquarters actually working now, the new Call of Duty: WWII patch nerfs the popular BAR automatic rifle, and includes the usual array of tweaks, improvements, and fixes. Get the full patch notes, below:

　　Headquarters Status Update
