Season 5 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s popular battle royale game, Warzone, re-introduced a visual flaw that had been fixed in previous seasons and has reported a health risk for some players.
The break is a texture glitch that appears and can take over an entire screen with polygon shapes. It was not mentioned as a problem in any of the recent patch notes. It ‘was sometimes called the’ Demon Glitch ‘, only when it comes to a weapon texture, but it can increase in size causing flashing lights and colors.
Popular streamers including Timothy “TimtheTatman” John Betar, Dennis “Cloakzy” Lepore and Nick “NICKMERCS” Kolcheff also addressed the break in a few recent streams and the fact that Warzone’s recent patch notes did not include any mention of the break.
Ashton Williams, senior communications manager for game developer Infinity Ward, fixed the glitch on Twitter, saying Infinity Ward was working on a fix, but there was no timetable for its implementation.
The second fixes the graphical corruption issue with weapons, the ‘Play Again’ option does not work, and more. I do not have an ETA yet, but we will share more details when we are all ready.

Streamer Tim “Darkness429” Havlock said he was stopping streaming Warzone because of the breakup because he did not want it to take over for his viewers and viewers.
“I’ve already said I’m not streaming well with this bug because it’s such a rapid flash of light that ‘it could give someone a hit’ on top of a lot of things like it can not ADS (point down) as even see players because they are a massive blob, “the streamer wrote on his Facebook page.
He added that one of his viewers claimed that a friend had received a small seizure while assigning Warzone.
Activision and Infinity Ward did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
