Another week, another update for Call of Duty Warzone. This week’s patch isn’t all that huge, but fans will be pleased to know that Iron Trials ‘84 is mentioned yet again, this time playable in Private Matches, while it has disappeared from the Playlist.
COD Warzone patch notes — Iron Trials ‘84 Private Matches
When Iron Trials ‘84 came to Warzone in September 2021, it quickly became a fan-favorite mode, forcing players to up their game in a more challenging version of the traditional Battle Royale.
The game has come and gone and come back again since its initial release, and this week leaves the Playlist once more. However, Iron Trials can now be played in Private Matches, in Solos, Duos, Trios and Squads, with a maximum of 132 players.
The good news is that Iron Trial’s ‘84 will once again return to the Playlist in the week of October 28th as a weekend exclusive. Between October 29th and November 1st, Iron Trials ‘84 will be enjoyed across the weekend, this time in Solos mode. The weekend exclusive will replace the normal Battle Royale Solos from 10am PST/1pm EST/6pm BST on the Friday, right through to the same time on the Monday.

Bug Fixes in Call of Duty Warzone
A number of bug fixes have also been made in this latest Warzone update. For example, players will no longer be able to exploit a bug that allowed access to out-of-bound areas in Rebirth Island. An issue that meant some players had a problem when purchasing the Gilded Agent Bundle has now also been patched.
