Cold War July 16 update patch notes

Treyarch Studios have released the July 16 update following the launch of Season 4 Reloaded, and we have all of the patch notes covered for you.

Season 4 Reloaded is officially underway in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and it has brought plenty of exciting things for players to experience.

From the new Mauer der Toten Zombies map, the powerful Ots 9 SMG, and a new Nuke killstreak, Season 4 Reloaded has plenty for players to enjoy.

However, this has not stopped Treyarch from working on fixing issues, which the studio addressed in the Cold War July 16 update, and we have all of the patch notes for the Cold War July 16 update covered for you.

MP + ZOMBIES GAMEPLAY IMPROVEMENTS

This update also includes some new bug fixes and gameplay improvements in Multiplayer and Zombies. In MP, we’ve addressed an issue preventing players from respawning after a Nuke Scorestreak while a teammate was controlling a remote Scorestreak, and fixed an issue with the “Nothing but the Hits” Season Four Challenge.

In “Mauer der Toten,” we’ve got fixes for stability issues related to The Disciple and the CRBR-S, an exploit related to Tombstone Soda, and an issue that could occur during one of the Main Quest steps (no spoilers!).

Later today, we’re planning on deploying an update to address an issue where some Xbox Series X players could encounter missing textures, objects, or audio in “Mauer der Toten.” Keep an eye on our Trello board for updates on this and other known issues we’re tracking.
