CoD: Warzone’s New Purgatory LTM Can’t Be Won, And That’s Why It’s Great
Season 6 of Warzone includes Call of Duty’s annual The Haunting event, and the spooky theme brings one of the battle royale’s most interesting limited-time modes. Purgatory isn’t your typical Warzone experience, but it’s a fun sandbox-style mode that feels like the perfect send-off for this final season of Modern Warfare 3. It’s also a refreshingly chill mode that should stick around long-term.
Purgatory is played with 10 squads of four battling on Season 6’s Hellspawn variant of Rebirth Island. The map’s hellish makeover includes an eerie sky, blood-red water, zombified NPC creatures, and flesh-covered walls, providing enough atmospheric changes here to get you in the Halloween spirit.
At first glance, it’s unclear what you’re supposed to do with your time in Purgatory. This is a sandbox mode with custom loadouts and infinite respawns, so there’s no real objective dictating how you play. This makes the mode great to play with friends while just chatting and completing challenges. Purgatory is perfect for finishing up your camo grind, completing daily or weekly challenges, or knocking out the seasonal Warzone Rewards objectives.
