April 29, 2024 by Lauren Sayles

A new way to play Rebirth Island.

We are almost half way through Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 3 which means a mid-season content drop is on the horizon. Rebirth Island in particular is set to get an array of updates, including a Lockdown mode. If you want to know what this mode entails, we’ve got all the details you need to know ahead of time.

Those who enjoy Call of Duty multiplayer modes and perhaps Ground War may want to give Lockdown a whirl. It puts a spin on the Rebirth Island map which hasn’t been done before, moving away from traditional battle royale gameplay.

What is the Lockdown mode in Warzone?

The objective is to capture and control zones across the map, scoring points for each zone successfully held. Activision describe the mode as a “large-scale Battle Royale version of Hardpoint.” However, compared to battle royale modes, Lockdown has a reduced player count, with just 28 total players deploying on the battlefield.

Respawning is enabled and you can use a custom loadout to fight over each zone and ensure you’re securing points for your team. Towards the end of the match, High-Value Zones will spawn in that offer the chance to rack up a greater number of points.

Although the mode removes the objective of being the last squad standing, you still have to work as a team to take out your opponents and defend the designated zones and come out victorious. In addition, Lockdown in an ideal playlist to level up guns, as there’s plenty of gunfights to be had and opportunities to earn XP.

The Lockdown mode is sure to bring a new pace to Warzone when it launches during Season 3 Reloaded, which is scheduled to kick off on May 1, 2024.
