Warzone 2 players are reporting a bug that sees them get shadowbanned and disconnected from a match when they get 10 kills.

Warzone 2 is certainly not immune to bugs and glitches, with players reporting issues with not just the battle royale, but also DMZ ever since its release.

Now, in Season 1 Reloaded, Warzone 2 players are reporting a bug that sees players getting disconnected from games and shadowbanned after reaching 10 kills.

Jake Lucky put a post up on Twitter highlighting this new Warzone 2 bug, showing a clip of a player reaching 10 kills, then suddenly being disconnected from the game and apparently shadowbanned.

Others have weighed in on the comments too, so it’s not just a one-off and looks to be a bug that is impacting many players. One comment says that the bug has been “happening for a while,” and another says “I go through this literally everyday & can’t wait for 5 days at a time, they need to fix this ASAP.”

Even top Warzone streamer and content creator IceManIsaac has reported the issue, showing a clip of them getting disconnected from a game in which they had 10 kills.

This is obviously extremely frustrating, as getting 10 kills isn’t the easiest achievement for everyone, and so the fact that there is a chance you will be disconnected from a potentially great game and even shadowbanned afterward is truly devastating.

Hopefully, the devs are able to fix this bug as soon as possible, especially as players will have to wait some time until the Season 2 update arrives.
