Right before the launch of Season 2 this February, Call of Duty Vanguard has received a new update introducing Perk Changes, alongside new and adjusted spawns on Paradise. The update is currently live on all platforms. Not only the multiplayer counterpart gets amends, but Vanguard Zombies is also getting a couple of changes as well.
Furthermore, weapons and weapon attachments bugs are being addressed, such as the weapon icons not showing on interactable objects as doors. These changes are considered to be quite vital just before the release of Season 2. For the complete January 27 patch notes, make sure you check the segment below:
