The long-awaited April 28 update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare/Warzone has arrived, and it introduces some notable changes across the standard multiplayer and the battle royale game.

The update is a big one, as it clocks in at 13 GB on Xbox One and 10 GB on PS4. The file size of the PC edition depends on other factors. You can start download it right now.

While you wait, you can check out the full patch notes posted below.

One of the biggest new additions for Warzone is a new item called the Armor Satchel, which allows you to carry up to 8 armor plates (up from 5). These satchels can be found in loot crates and they drop after taking down an enemy player. The Satchels do not themselves contain any armor plates; they only expand the number you can carry.

Additionally, the speed and size of the gas circle has been adjusted with the new update. On top of that, Warzone’s cargo truck has been brought back into the Solos mode, though its turning speed, acceleration, and top speed have been nerfed.

The playlists have been updated as well, with Modern Warfare getting a playlist called “Shoot the Ship 24/7,” which includes Cranked and Grind. Warzone has Solos, Trios, and Quads, as well as a Trios mode for Plunder. There is also a new “Most Wanted” contract in Warzone that offers a unique twist in that you become the bounty.
