Call of Duty: Warzone has today launched its April 19 update, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. One thing worth noting before we get into this is that one big change has come in that isn’t listed below. The fan-favorite Snoop Dogg is dropping into Warzone, letting players equip his fancy skin and gun down foes to the beat of his tunes if they so desire. As for the update itself, the final step of the mode merger is here with events coming into the usual BR rotation and a host of bug fixes being made. We’ll let you read the nitty-gritty on that from the patch notes though. Without further adieu, here’s everything new with Call of Duty: Warzone in its April 19 update!
