Now Playing: CoD: Warzone – Operation Monarch Launch Trailer feat. Godzilla vs. Kong
The Operation Monarch mode will be available as a quads playlist. It will be a 60-player match with Warzone’s Resurgence ruleset, which means players will get to respawn as long as another squadmate is still alive. In addition to the lower player count, this playlist will also condense the matches by marking a smaller area of Caldera as the first safe zone. Despite the inclusion of Godzilla and King Kong, Activision says Operation Monarch’s overall objective is the same as all Warzone matches, and the last team standing will win.
On the ground, players will find Monarch Intel by opening supply boxes, special drops, and collecting from fallen enemies. Collecting the intel will be used to charge a special meter that unlocks items such as killstreaks and loadout drops, along with a unique Operation Monarch reward for filling the meter up completely. This intel meter works similarly to Warzone’s power meter from the Power Grab limited-time mode on Verdansk.
While collecting the Monarch Intel and eliminating enemies, players will also need to watch out for Kong and Godzilla. Dealing damage to the titans will award additional Monarch Intel, and while Activision says they shouldn’t get too aggressive, they will still be dangerous to players during a Titan Frenzy.
A Titan Frenzy is when Godzilla or Kong become enraged and recklessly attack, which is an action that can occur twice in an Operation Monarch match. After receiving a Titan Frenzy alert, players will have two options: flee the area or attempt to suppress them by dealing direct damage.
Of course, it could be worth the risk to fight the titans. The squad who inflicts the most damage to either Kong or Godzilla during a Titan Frenzy will automatically receive Monarch’s special S.C.R.E.A.M. Device. Runners-up will still earn Monarch Intel to count toward their special intel meter, whose final reward is a S.C.R.E.A.M. Device.
The Titan S.C.R.E.A.M. Device is a prototype device that lets players use Godzilla and Kong’s abilities in battle. In Operation Monarch, the S.C.R.E.A.M. Device works like a killstreak that grants its user one of two powers: Heat ray breath from Godzilla or a ground pound from King Kong.
Event rewards
Like most seasonal events, Operation Monarch has a series of challenges to complete within the limited-time playlist. Completing each of these eight challenges will unlock a unique cosmetic reward, and completing all of them will reward the Ancient Rivalry marksman rifle weapon blueprint.
