The badass trailer for the battle royale game, trending at No. 5 on YouTube as of this writing, sends viewers on a wild visual adventure through a city dubbed Verdansk.

There are two game modes in Warzone: traditional battle royale and plunder. The 150-player battle royal mode will support solo, duo and three-person teams as a menacing cloud of gas chases fighters to tighten the combat circle. The objective is simple: be the last squad standing.
In plunder mode, capped at 30 minutes, players will get to satisfy their inner pillager by looting cash; collect more cash than the opposing teams and you'll be victorious. Plunder also features contracts, which are objective-oriented tasks players can find throughout Verdansk that offers cash rewards for completion.
One unique feature of Warzone is its Gulag battle feature, which allows eliminated players to earn their spot back into the match through 1-vs-1 combat with other eliminated players. If one of your team members are a part of the Gulag queue, you can watch the fight from a balcony.
