Want to master the mechanics before dropping into other game modes, the Warzone Bootcamp mode is what you're looking for.

Season 3 of the Call of Duty battle royale introduces a wealth of brand-new content ranging from the battle pass to the return of Snoop Dogg as a playable Operator. Alongside new characters and weaponry, Raven Software has unveiled a new game mode that's significantly different from standard battle royale matches.

What is the Warzone Bootcamp mode?

Warzone Bootcamp is a brand-new training mode for players to familiarise themselves with all the mechanics on offer. The mode also features a mixture of real players and bots with 20 players loading into the match and 24 bots joining them to take the total to 44.

With the mode featuring fewer players than a usual battle royale match, each game takes place on a small slice of the Urzikstan map.

In a blog post, Raven Software has shared more about the decision to introduce a mode designed to help newcomers master Warzone. Bootcamp is “designed to help new players build confidence for their first official drop-in," and will feature reduced XP earn rates.

Does Warzone have bots?

Yes, Warzone does feature bots but they only appear in the Bootcamp mode. All other battle royale and Resurgence modes do not contain any bots.
