Warzone Season 04 adds Fortune’s Keep refresh, Clash, ranked play

Season 04 arrived with a hard split between the players who can jump straight into the full Warzone pool and the ones who cannot. Raven Software’s June 3 patch notes said Microsoft Azure Attestation now routes failing players into a separate matchmaking pool, while PC users who do not complete attestation are limited to Nuketown 24/7 in Black Ops 7 and Battle Royale Casual in Warzone. Full compliance requires TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, and Raven noted that some AMD TPM software versions in the 3.x.0.x range may need a BIOS or firmware update.

For most players, though, the bigger immediate draw was the map work. Fortune’s Keep returned with a refresh that put fresh weight on Terraces, Keep, and Gatehouse, and the official map guide filled out the island’s full slate of landmarks with Overlook, Town, Graveyard, Bay, Winery, Pier, Lighthouse, Smuggler’s Cove, Grotto, and Research Vessel. That matters because Fortune’s Keep first debuted in Warzone in 2022 as a featured Resurgence experience, and the new layout is built to do the same job now: force faster rotations, tighter fights, and more decisions per minute than the larger battle royale map.

If you want progression first, Resurgence Ranked Play is the cleanest place to start. If you want variety, Fortune’s Keep is the obvious first stop because the refresh changes how the whole island plays. If you want pure chaos, Verdansk Clash is the answer. Alongside Shadowlink Contracts, the new Clash limited-time mode widened the season’s playlist changes and gave Verdansk players a more explosive alternative to standard Warzone pacing. Resurgence Ranked Play also marked another intermittent return for the competitive side of the mode, after it came back in a 2025 Season 04 Reloaded update.

The broader Season 04 content drop stretched across Warzone, multiplayer, Zombies, and Endgame, with Raven framing it as a major cross-mode rollout rather than a single playlist tweak. Fortune’s Keep is still the headline attraction, but the season’s real shape came from how it stacked that refreshed island, Verdansk Clash, Shadowlink Contracts, and ranked Resurgence into one update. If the season had to be measured by what players felt first, it was the island they dropped into, the lobby they fought in, and the rank they could finally chase again.
