What is Clash mode in Warzone?

Warzone’s return to form in season four of Black Ops 6 includes a limited-time mode that hasn’t been seen since Black Ops Cold War: welcome back, Clash.

Clash is similar to modes like Plunder, where respawns are enabled in the battle royale game, and the mode is not a BR at all. It’s similar to Team Deathmatch, but there are a lot of extra wrinkles added in, too.

Here’s everything there is to know about Clash mode in Warzone.

Warzone Clash mode explained

Clash mode in Warzone is a limited-time mode based on Team Deathmatch, with specific scoring requirements. But basically, it’s a respawn-enabled mode where you can fight on specific locations in Verdansk in 52-vs.-52 battle.

“With no Circle Collapse, no last stand benefit for the Survivor Perk, and your Loadouts available immediately, the plan is simple; your side needs to acquire 500 points by the end of the 15-minute time limit,” Activision described. “These are mainly gained by slaying enemies (sometimes aided with power-ups you can acquire within a match), completing contracts, and participating in the in-game Public Events.”

How scoring works in Warzone Clash

• First team to 500 points wins
  • 1 point per elimination
  • 2 points per enemy elimination with “Double Down” Power Up
  • 5 points per Contract completed
  • 10 points for capturing a Domination Point (Flag)
  • 10 points for capturing a Bonus Crate or a Cash Crate

Warzone Clash maps

Clash is played on maps made from specific POIs within Verdansk:

• Quarry
• Boneyard
• Farmland
• Promenade (East)

Warzone Clash vehicles

A selection of vehicles can be found on each Clash map:

• Heli
• Cargo Truck
• LTV (Light Tactical Vehicle)
• Polaris RZR Pro R 4

Warzone Clash in-match events

During each match, events will take place that will reward points and help propel your team to victory:

• Domination Points
  • Capture Domination flags that appear on the map.
• Bonus Points Crates
  • Capture a crate dropped by an airship for 10 points.
• Clash Firesale
  • Buy Stations are dropped into each team’s backfield for two minutes.
• Cash Crates
  • Crates are dropped on the field full of cash, and can be captured for 10 points.
• Power Surge
  • Increased drop rate of Power Ups when you eliminate an enemy over a two-minute period.

Warzone Clash Power Ups

Clash has Power Ups that drop throughout the match, giving you specific abilities unlike anything in battle royale:

• Hunter (Red Aura): Highlights enemies and allies in red and blue, respectively. Allies are visible through walls. Applies Tracker and High Alert Perks.
• Speed Boost (Yellow Aura): Prevents fall damage and provides approximately 20 percent speed boost to your movement.
• Regeneration Aura (Green Aura): Refills your health and armor at roughly 20 percent per second. Allies within a small radius around you also receive this benefit. The effect does not stack.
• Double Down (Blue Aura): Grants you two points per enemy Operator elimination instead of one.
• Kill Mag (Purple Aura): Refills your active weapon magazine after a kill and quickens your reload.
