Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 update version 1.53 is out now on consoles and PC, and this is a small download that’s for the Black Ops 6 beta that starts today for early access!

Sledgehammer Games has not revealed any patch notes for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone for today, and we suspect none will be released given the patch is for the Black Ops 6 beta, For reference, we did list the known issues for both MW3 and Warzone below (via the official Trello boards of both games).

Modern Warfare 3 Known Issues:

Multiplayer:

• The “Change to Loadout #” keybinds do not function as intended
• Reactive Operator Skins, Reactive Blueprints, and Operators stolen with the “Identity Theft” Finishing Move, lose their visual effects upon round change in round-based playlists
• Players are encountering instances of manned killstreak UI persisting or reappearing after exiting the streak

Zombies:

• Switching weapons while possessing the “Numb Foot” Passive Item in the 3rd Aether Rift removes its movement speed boost
• Players are unable to interact with certain prompts while using the “Prioritize Interact” Interact/Reload Behavior setting
• Exfilling from Urzikstan to any Dark Aether Rift counts as a Loss in the player’s Combat Record

Warzone:

Global:

• [PC] Crashing and Stability Reports: Submit a PC Crash Report to help us identify, investigate, and resolve game crashes.
• [PC] RAM Usage: We’re investigating reports of higher-than-usual memory (RAM) usage on PC platforms following a recent game update.

Battle Royale, Resurgence, Plunder, Lockdown:

• [All Platforms] Bunker Buster: We’ve temporarily disabled Bunker Busters while we investigate a related issue.
• Torque 35: We’re aware of an issue causing incorrect ammo type to be displayed on the HUD while using the Torque 35 (new bow).
• [All Platforms] Match ID: We’re aware of an issue causing the match ID in the lower left corner of the screen to appear larger than usual.
• [All Platforms] Sky Piercer Parachute: This customization has been disabled until further notice.

Ranked Play:

• [All Platforms] Matchmaking: Some players that meet the Party SR Restrictions requirements are unable to matchmake with each other.

Outside of the known issues, the patch should prep the data released earlier this week for the Black Ops 6 beta, which kicks off today for early access at 1 pm ET/10 am PT/1 am HKT! For those that redeemed a platform code but seeing a “pre-order” required when accessing the title, it’s a known issue Activision is aware of.

If any notes are released, we’ll update the article.
