Call of Duty sees boost on Twitch thanks to Verdansk map
The streaming space saw a relatively quiet April, according to StreamElement's latest State of the Stream report. Twitch saw fewer hours watched than in March, which the report attributes at least in part to a lack of 'major' game releases — games like South of Midnight and Oblivion Remastered not being enough to move the needle on viewers at least. The most notable thing about the month is the precipitous spike in viewership for Call of Duty: Warzone, which saw 45 million hours watched in April, a 146% increase. According to StreamElement's report, which was done in partnership with Twitch saw a total of 1.573 billion hours watched in April, less than even February despite have two more days. For daily hours watched, Rainmaker's data shows viewers watched about 52 million hours total per day, lower than any other month in April. Or Perry, StreamElements CEO, attributed the viewership spike to the re-launch of the much-beloved Verdansk map. 'The highlight of April was Call of Duty: Warzone experiencing a whopping 146% surge in viewership on Twitch, driven by the return of an updated version of the fan favorite Verdansk map. Nostalgia is a powerful tool because it makes things feel instantly familiar, with Warzone's latest release standing out by reestablishing that emotional connection while upgrading rather than simply recycling old content.' The rest of the report covers the list of the top 10 streamers on Twitch. Caedrel remains at the top of the list, thanks to his League of Legends commentary streams — he covered the LCK Spring Split in April, and also received the EMEA Masters Trophy his team, Los Ratones, won at the winter event. It's his third month

Call of Duty reveals everything new coming to Warzone Season 4
Image via Treyarch The countdown to Season 4 of Call of Duty: Warzone is nearly over, and the new content drop is shaping up to be one of the most impactful updates yet. From massive changes to Verdansk's skyline to the return of fan-favorite modes and inventive gameplay tweaks, there's a lot packed into this season. A Towering New Landmark: The Overlook Verdansk has changed again, and it's hard to miss. The Overlook, a gigantic skyscraper, is now the highest point on the map—easily dwarfing anything else in the city. Replacing several older POIs like Burger Town, the SKN Comm tower, and surrounding tenement buildings, The Overlook adds a vertical twist to combat. Expect rooftop battles, crane climbs, and fast-paced movement using ziplines. Inside the building, players can navigate multiple floors filled with both tactical potential and loot. The ground floor also introduces new areas like a sushi bar and a relocated Burger Town, helping freshen up familiar locations. Clash Mode Is Back With a Twist Clash Mode makes its return in Season 4, offering 52v52 team deathmatch chaos across Verdansk. But this isn't just a copy-paste from previous seasons. This time, Clash comes with new features including: Search and Destroy Contracts UAV Towers and SAM Turrets for added intel and anti-air capabilities Door Barricades for defensive plays New power-ups like Speed Boost and Double Down Add in rotating POIs, in-match events, and accessible loadouts from the start, and Clash becomes the ultimate arena for large-scale action. Mid-Season Surprise: Havoc Royale Later in Season 4, players can dive into Havoc Royale—a limited-time mode that introduces dynamic modifiers to gas circles. Each new circle alters gameplay in real-time, forcing squads to adapt their strategy as the match evolves. It's chaotic, unpredictable, and designed specifically for Quads. This mode will keep even seasoned players guessing. Casual-Friendly Resurgence Mode Another big addition is Resurgence Casual , a more accessible version of the popular mode. It features bot opponents, making it easier for new or returning players to get up to speed without the high stakes. Importantly, it doesn't impact your progression, so it's a stress-free way to practice and warm up. WARZONE: Major SEASON 4 UPDATE FULLY REVEALED! New WEAPONS, Full Roadmap, & More! (BO6 Season 4) New Killstreaks, Contracts, and Perks Drops Season 4 also delivers a variety of gameplay enhancements, including: The Care Package Killstreak : Drops a crate full of rare loot mid-match Loot Master Perk : Increases loot quality from caches Return of the Hand Cannon : High-damage, limited-use firepower Expanded Search and Destroy Contracts : Now available in standard Battle Royale, Resurgence, and Plunder These changes are designed to reward exploration, aggressive play, and smart objective focus.
