Can Vanguard Ranked Play rewards be used in Warzone?

Yes, all of Vanguard’s Ranked Play rewards can be equipped in Warzone, so feel free to show off your multiplayer prowess in Caldera, Rebirth Island, and Fortune’s Keep. You can also earn Black Ops Cold War’s League Play rewards, which are available in Warzone.

However, you cannot carry over your inventory to Warzone 2 as the developers have confirmed that it will be a completely separate game from the first one. It will feature its own level, weapons, Operators, and skins.
