Call of Duty: Warzone has officially arrived on Nintendo Switch 2 and is available as a free-to-play download from the Nintendo eShop.
The move brings Activision’s battle royale offering to Nintendo’s latest hardware for the first time, while launching concurrently with Season 1 content for Modern Warfare 4 and Warzone.
The Switch 2 release is the free-to-play Warzone battle royale experience only; it is distributed separately from Modern Warfare 4’s single-player campaign, multiplayer suite, and DMZ mode.
Players must download Warzone from the eShop and sign in with an Activision account to access online play.
Reported file size on our end is approximately 122GB, so users should plan for adequate storage on Nintendo Switch 2 hardware.
In journalistic terms, Activision has positioned the start of Season 1 as the official launch window for Call of Duty: Warzone on Nintendo Switch 2, highlighting that players can now access maps such as Hajin and Zodiac along with the usual playlists and rotations expected in a live-service battle royale.
Season 1 for Modern Warfare 4 and Warzone brings additional content across both titles.
In Modern Warfare 4’s multiplayer, the seasonal update introduces new maps — including Backstab, Canyon, and Shoot House — as well as fresh modes, in-game events, and progression rewards that span multiplayer and DMZ.
These additions are part of Activision’s standard seasonal cadence designed to refresh playlists and player engagement across the Call of Duty ecosystem.
For players interested in installing Warzone on Nintendo Switch 2, the game is accessible through the Nintendo eShop and requires an Activision account to play online.
For official patch notes, map rotations, and detailed Season 1 information, refer to Call of Duty’s official website.
Coverage and impressions of the Switch 2 release and Season 1 rollout are also available via Nintendo Life, which initially reported the availability and included hands-on details.
This launch marks a significant step for Call of Duty on Nintendo hardware, expanding Warzone’s platform footprint to Nintendo Switch 2 and aligning its seasonal content with Modern Warfare 4’s ongoing updates.
