Black Ops Cold War March 4 Update Released Alongside New Playlists

While Treyarch usually brings out a new playlist update to Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War on Thursday, the studio has today not only done that but an actual (server-side) patch, too! The Black Ops Cold War March 4 update list of changes include playlist refreshes (as expected), but also a few gameplay fixes for Outbreak!

Note that this is a server-side update and shouldn’t need a download. Players will get the new patch once they connect to the servers.
