Call of Duty’s The Haunting event brings an interesting new sandbox-style LTM to Warzone.
It’s also a refreshingly chill mode that should stick around long-term.
Purgatory is played with 10 squads of four battling on Season 6’s Hellspawn variant of Rebirth Island.

This makes the mode great to play with friends while just chatting and completing challenges.
Yes, you literally pilot the Shipment map around the sky like a helicopter.
Plus, it’s hilarious to see someone making Shipment do loop-de-loops in the sky.
You earn more XP as your Torment level increases, but it also elevates the match difficulty.
The hardest part of Purgatory might just be convincing your friends to play a full match.
One of my biggest gripes about the mode is Purgatory’s two-hour match timer.
On the positive side, leaving early doesn’t seem to tax you with any penalties.
The mode would feel more satisfying if you could exfil early or have an optional game-ending objective.
Another minor complaint is that all of the contracts on the map are just the standard Warzone variety.
Even Zombies' giant Abomination enemy would be cool to see lurking around on Rebirth Island.
