Call Of Duty: WWII Multiplayer Update 1.06 Released On PS4 & Xbox One

Call Of Duty: WWII has a brand new patch on PS4 and Xbox One. As promised in a previous blog post, update 1.06 largely focuses on multiplayer issues like server disconnects, broken leaderboards and map exploits. As an added bonus, the Headquarters multiplayer lobby should populate as intended.

As for how the new Headquarters works, we’ve got a few helpful tips. To see what the lobby looks like, you must manually select Headquarters from the multiplayer menu to enter it. Unlike previous versions of the game, it appears the feature will be opt-in for now. This logic applies to opening Supply Drops as well. If you are not logged into Headquarters, Supply Drops will open inside the game lobby and will not kick you back to the hub area.

Should you experience any framerate drops during your time there, a temporary workaround is to head to the Theater section, watch a video and back out. After that, your sloppy performance should be reset.

Update 1.06 arrives in the nick of time for what has been an unquestionably rocky launch for Call Of Duty: WWII. While it's unlikely all the post-launch server issues and errors were fixed in this single patch, the changelog suggests it should go a long way toward making each match a bit more stable.

Call Of Duty: WWII is available now on PS4, Xbox One and PC. Update 1.06 is only available on console for now.
