If you’re unable to access the Plunder mode in Warzone, don’t worry; you’re not alone.

The mode’s disappearance is not due to a temporary bug or glitch. Instead, the developers have disabled it on purpose.

Plunder on Warzone is one of the most popular modes to play, mainly because it provides unlimited respawns.

In it, you don’t have to worry about always staying in a safe spot, as you can take risks and use aggressive strategies.

However, it seems like you will have to opt for other game modes for the time being, as Infinity Ward has decided to temporarily remove Plunder from Warzone.

The announcement comes directly from Call of Duty Updates, which is the official X account where the developers share updates regarding the game.



The post mentioned that Plunder has been disabled due to performance-related issues. The developers are investigating the source of the problem, but for now, they’ve decided to remove Plunder from Warzone. 

When is Plunder on Warzone coming back? 

At the moment, the developers have not shared any details about when the mode will be back. However, they will most likely release a fix for the issue soon through a patch.

Once that happens, you can expect to jump into Plunder again. However, do keep in mind that it can be removed instantly if the performance issues are still there.

This isn’t the first time Plunder has been removed from Warzone. The developers occasionally remove it from the weekly playlist and bring it back after some time. 

But this time, the issue is serious, as performance issues can ruin the entire gameplay experience. 

When Warzone Plunder is back, we’ll make sure to update this article and let you know.
