Call of Duty: Warzone fans have made several requests over the years, with some granted and others still being asked for. The latest feedback from Call of Duty: Warzone players is tied to the battle pass, as gamers want it to be reworked to resemble the passes of Apex Legends or Halo Infinite.
Apex Legends' battle pass rework is seemingly set to come in Season 11, with its arrival going against one of the core mechanics of the battle pass system. Once the rework comes, players will be able to unlock old battle pass items from expired passes. While there are some people who dislike this change, as part of what makes battle passes interesting is that older items become rarer as time goes on, most are happy with the change. As such, they would like to see it in Call of Duty: Warzone as well.

With Halo Infinite’s battle passes also being praised for allowing players to work on them in the Seasons after they debut, Call of Duty: Warzone’s format is quickly becoming outdated. As such, Redditors like PlantainZealousideal are hoping that more old rewards will be added to the store – or entire battle passes – as they missed out on the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare era of Warzone. For gamers who want the default version of characters like Roze, as well as skins like shirtless Yegor, they are unfortunately out of luck.

With Call of Duty: Warzone’s Season 5 battle pass already coming under fire, it seems like players are more than a bit frustrated with the current system. Letting players purchase and progress through old battle passes could be a great way to work around this, and it could give those who finish a Season’s pass early something to do. Unfortunately, while MadAshx does point out Halo: Infinite’s system, that is not something that is in place for Call of Duty.

As shown by Redditor Classic_Ghost, certain battle pass rewards like Mara are being re-sold in new store bundles. While this is good to an extent, as it allows players to get some of the older cosmetics they missed out on, it comes with some downsides. For starters, each bundle is significantly more expensive than the entire battle pass was when the character released. Worse, only specific items go on sale in the store, meaning that some battle pass unlocks that fans may have wanted could never return.
On the bright side, the upcoming release of Call of Duty: Vanguard gives Activision and Sledgehammer Games the chance to refine the battle pass system. While it is unclear if something like Apex Legends or Halo Infinite’s battle passes will ever come to Call of Duty, most fans clearly prefer the formats of those games' passes.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
