The Battle Royale Preview is a limited-time mode that introduces players to experimental features potentially destined for integration into the standard Battle Royale mode, depending on evaluations and community feedback.

Currently, the mode incorporates the Covert Exfil and Weapon Case features, both introduced in the Warzone Season 1 Reloaded update.

Covert Exfil offers players a new method to escape early and win. With it, you can call in a helicopter that flies you and your squad out of the match.

However, it’s worth noting that only five exfils are available in buy stations per match before the Gulag closes, and they come at a hefty price of $30,000.

The main purpose of Covert Exfil is to provide an option for players to escape with a Weapon Case, another notable feature in Battle Royale Preview.

At the start of each match, a single weapon case spawns in a small search area. Finding and holding the case marks you for all enemies to see.
