After a rough launch, Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile developers have moved to address graphics, optimization, and device temperature concerns with a massive patch on April 2. This patch comes just a day before the new handheld season begins.

The details for the long-awaited update were explained by the CoD devs in a post on X (formerly Twitter) today. “The dev team rolled out an update addressing the most pressing issues affecting players,” the post from the design team read, with the devs adding more bug fixes also coming with the launch of the new season tomorrow. Further fixes and performance improvements “will [then] continue coming through the month.”

Today’s Warzone Mobile update specifically targets optimization on Android devices, which was a major pain point players suffered following the game’s high-profile launch last month. The team is also addressing concerns about device temperature, automatically dropping default FPS values, and letting players manually increase the setting instead.

The vehicle-filled Verdansk bug has also been fixed, and devs have implemented a rejoin feature which was in high demand as players struggled to remain engaged after getting kicked from a game due to issues out of their control.

Here are the patch notes for CoD: Warzone Mobile‘s April 2 update.
