FEATURE UPDATES

• Resistance Event items

In simple terms, just about every major issue that existed in the WWII community was addressed by this patch. Your soldier’s health will regen faster, you shouldn’t spawn as a spectator anymore and announcer voiceovers won’t be deafeningly loud. The team at Sledgehammer promised an extensive list of fixes for update 1.09 and they definitely weren’t kidding.

As for the Resistance event, be sure to read our full post on the subject. We’ll recap its most notable additions here. From Jan. 23 through Feb. 27, players will have the chance to take on special Orders that unlock brand-new guns like the Volkssturmgewehr rifle, Orso SMG and Combat Knife melee weapon. Limited-time modes, like Prop Hunt and Demolition, will also make its return to the WWII roster.

Possibly the most impactful new feature is the permanent stealth-focused Resistance Division that offers a new way to play. Basic Training skills for the class include the ability to scramble opponent mini-maps and a silent-but-deadly pistol and knife weapon combo.

Call Of Duty: WWII is available now on PS4, Xbox One and PC. The 1.09 update should be live across all platforms with Prop Hunt as this week’s featured mode.
