The Recent Call of Duty Update Throws Multiplayer Matchmaking into Disarray

The most recent Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has entirely disrupted matchmaking, with gamers indicating that they are unable to enter the game.

As of this writing, Activision has not provided any updates or patch notes for either Black Ops 6 or Warzone, and at present, it appears that no one is able to enjoy the game.

However, there’s no need for concern; the Call of Duty store is functioning properly if you intend to spend some of your hard-earned money.

According to the official Call of Duty Updates X account, the ongoing problems are attributed to the update being rolled out to everyone.

This latest patch is the first update for Call of Duty Black Ops 6 and Warzone since the development teams of Call of Duty left for the holiday break. What precisely the patch included is still uncertain.

Call of Duty has faced heavy criticism in recent weeks due to a substantial number of glitches, erroneous bans, and hacking incidents, leading to a significant loss of players during the holiday season. According to SteamDB, the game lost 38.9% of its Steam player base in December, marking the highest loss percentage in recent years during this time frame.

As of this writing, SteamDB indicates an additional 20.8% decrease in the last 30 days. Today’s updates for Call of Duty continue to worsen, as earlier today, a leaker revealed that Verdansk will be reintroduced in Season 3 instead of Season 2.
