Introducing *Warzone*, a new, massive combat arena within *Call of DutyⓇ: Modern WarfareⓇ*, that’s completely free for players on all platforms. It’s available to download from [Battle.net](https://www.blizzard.com/)Ⓡ right now, and we’ve released an accompanying [*Call of DutyⓇ: Warzone*](https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/news/call-of-duty-warzone-game-ready-driver.md) [Game Ready Driver](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/call-of-duty-warzone-game-ready-driver.md) that’ll deliver optimised performance to reach 144+ FPS for competitive play.

In Battle Royale, you and a group of friends can drop into a massive firefight to be the last squad standing. Drop in, armor up, loot for rewards, and battle your way to the top. Additionally, *Warzone* introduces Plunder, where players drop in with their teammates to grab the most cash to win. Players earn in-game cash by eliminating opponents, completing Contracts, and controlling key cash deposit locations.

With plenty of new features and mechanics, *Call of Duty: Warzone* brings new and unique gameplay to the ever-popular Battle Royale arena. To experience it at its very best, play on PC where [GeForce RTX graphics cards](https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/20-series.md) deliver 144+ FPS, giving you a better chance of hitting your target, and giving you a faster, clearer experience when paired with a high refresh rate G-SYNC monitor. As we [demonstrated recently](https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/news/what-is-fps-and-how-it-helps-you-win-games.md), running at high framerates [can give you an edge in competitive multiplayer shooters](https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/news/what-is-fps-and-how-it-helps-you-win-games.md), making the difference between winning a chicken dinner, or going home with a doggy bag.
