Warzone received a brand-new playlist update on March 31, which seems to have gifted players with a pleasant surprise.

Warzone players have been enjoying the major changes to Rebirth Island since the Season 2 Reloaded update. Along with map changes, players also received an interesting Rebirth Reinforced Event.

The event provides a ton of fun Community Challenges for players to complete across the revamped island. Players are still getting acquainted with Weapon Trade Stations and Communications Towers but the third challenge has opened the door for a well-received playlist update.

The third Community Challenge of Rebirth Reinforced states that “Operators must secure a combined 130 Million Payloads on Rebirth Island to unlock the Armored Truck Deployment Public Event and earn 75k XP.”

In order to complete the challenge, the devs have added a brand-new Rebirth Payload mode to the active playlist options and players are absolutely loving the new addition.

Players should remember Payload from Verdansk as the respawn enabled game mode splits players into teams and tasks players with either escorting or destroying an Armored Truck.

A post from the Warzone subreddit by Nintendo_Pro_03 which praises the March 31 playlist update, is earning a lot of love from the Warzone community. The post is full of comments agreeing with the positive statement, “Payload is actually dope AF.”

While the objective play of Payload is quite entertaining, it’s also great for leveling up weapons. One user asks how it compares to the Clash mode, “is payload as good as clash in terms of leveling up weapons?” to which the simple response of “Better. Way more kills” is given.

The only concern is how players are expected to get a massive vehicle across the miniature-sized map of Rebirth Island.

To find out if the Armored Vehicles suit the prison island, you’ll have to test out Rebirth Payload and contribute to the Community Challenge.
