Warzone February 24 update patch notes: PPSh adjustments, Gulag changes, bug fixes
Activision A Warzone update was released on February 24, which was highlighted by some changes to the PPSh that was silently buffed. On top of that, the Gulag received some new equipment as well as a handful of bugs getting fixed. Here are the full patch notes from the Warzone update.
The first update since the release of Pacific Season 2 has finally arrived. Raven Software is hitting one of the biggest issues since the release of the season, which saw the PPSh become one of the strongest weapons of all time.
While this was not an intended buff, the devs have revealed that they fixed an issue on their end that gave the SMG higher damage values. But the gun still got a couple of buffs in its base stats to balance it out.
They also are adding some of Season 2’s new equipment to the Gulag such as Gas Grenades and Stims, while fixing some of the games current glitches. Here’s everything to know from the February 24 update.

The PPSh has been dominating Season 2 due to a secret buff, but devs promised a fix was on the way and it’s here. They resolved an issue that caused the gun to have higher damage values. However, the submachine gun had its neck damage multiplier increased from 1.1 to 1.3.
Pacific’s Gulag also got some mix ups early in the season. Stuns are no longer part of the 1v1 gunfight and instead Gas Grenades, Medical Syringes, and Thermites have been added into the equipment pool. To round out this patch, the devs fixed a numerous of bugs, which you can view below.
The full patch notes have been posted by Raven Software themselves.
