Warzone devs forced to remove Rebirth Island after glitch-filled launch

As a dedicated Call of Duty fan with countless hours under my belt, I’ve seen it all – the glorious victories, the crushing defeats, and everything in between. But this latest turn of events with Rebirth Island has left me scratching my head.


The thrill about Rebirth Island’s comeback didn’t persist for long, as it was prematurely taken out of Warzone due to game-stopping bugs just a few hours following its debut.

In the integration of Warzone with Black Ops Cold War, players have encountered numerous problems following the release of Season 1. Some users criticized that the battle royale mode is “more problematic than ever,” as it fell short of expectations. Unsmooth character movement, uneven audio quality, an excessive array of weapons, and a weaker Perk system are among the pressing concerns raised by some gamers.

Fortunately, the developers assured they would enhance the sound clarity and tackled other player concerns. Yet, a rocky debut left some gamers wondering if the integration was necessary at all, which isn’t a positive sign for the game’s future in the battle royale genre.

Instead of alleviating tension, the recent update to the playlist unfortunately didn’t live up to expectations, as game-halting bugs marred the eagerly awaited comeback of Rebirth Island.

Raven Software announced that they’re temporarily taking Rebirth Island out of rotation as they look into certain problems associated with the map. The other maps and game modes continue to be available as usual.

Despite being a letdown, various content developers posted videos showing the map wasn’t quite ready for launch in its present condition.

As a gamer and streamer like Zyro, I recently shared a video where I voiced my frustrations over some technical hiccups during gameplay. The lighting was atrocious, the game froze up on me, the audio was so loud it felt deafening, and to top it all off, there were invisible guns that I couldn’t even loot! It’s tough to enjoy Call of Duty when these issues pop up.

It seems like Rebirth has just returned for two minutes, and it’s already riddled with issues! Here are some of the problems:

In a similar vein, FaZe Swagg found himself in a predicament that felt like being trapped inside a tumbling washing machine. The audio quality was so poor that he could hardly make out enemy footsteps, gunshots, or his teammate’s voice due to overwhelming background noises while navigating the prison section of the map.

As a gamer, I couldn’t help but shout out to Treyarch, questioning what on earth was happening with the audio in Rebirth Island! It seems like something has gone awry, because now I can even pick up the sound of the air as my enemies are parachuting in. Quite unusual, don’t you think?

Suffice to say, all of these issues were enough to force the development team’s hand.

WHAT IS THIS AUDIOOOOOOO LMAOOOOOOO @Treyarch
