While Sledgehammer Games have not released the official patch notes just yet, they have told fans that Call of Duty WW2 update 1.06 is being deployed now.
“We’re beginning to roll out a COD WW2 Game Update to PS4 and XB1. Stay tuned for a full list of fixes coming soon,” they confirmed on Twitter.
More is expected to be announced in the coming hours on both Reddit and the official Activision support site.
The patch is reportedly around 388MB to download on consoles and includes frame-rate changes to the Headquarters.
Studio head Michael Condrey also shared news about the update, telling fans: “Thanksgiving weekend was an incredible time for everyone at Sledgehammer Games to play online with fans.
“We’ve also been working non-stop since launch to improve the online experience for everyone. Across all three feature rich modes, we continue to address opportunities and community feedback to make this game great. Thank you for your continued support, enthusiasm and patience.
“We plan to roll out a robust game update this morning beginning at 9am PST that includes a ton of updates and fixes. Please be sure to tune into @SHGames for info and game update patch notes coming soon.
“Also, please note that we have zero tolerance for toxic behaviors and players who exploit and cheat in-game.
“We’re aware of the prestige exploit in HQ, and have a fix ready to deploy. Fair warning: the BanSledgehammer is fair, swift, and merciless.
“There is so much coming in December, beginning with today’s update and the kick off of Ranked Play Season 1 starting December 1.
“Winter is coming... to Call of Duty:WWII. Grab your overcoat and ice pick, and get ready to hit the frontlines.”
As mentioned by Condrey, Activision and Sledgehammer have also announced plans to hit players who have been using existing exploits to Prestige unfairly in-game.
Last week saw Sledgehammer Games confirm new map exploit fixes, UI improvements, fixes to issues with Party, connectivity optimizations, and more being deployed in future patches.
There have also been changes made to the BAR (increased recoil), along with reducedflinch-reduction in the Primed Basic Training, as well as fixes made to the “snaking” exploit while crouching and proning repeatedly.
It follows new reports that suggest that game modes like Gun Game, Infected and Control are all making a comeback in Call of Duty WW2 multiplayer.
Leaked by MrJaRni (via MP1st), the video - which has since been removed - also features a look at some of the game's new weapons.
Activision is yet to make an official announcement, and it's unclear if the content will be available as a free update or as part of the season pass.
In Gun Game, players start with a basic pistol and unlock new weapons by making kills. The winner is the first person to cycle through the entire roster of weapons.
Control, meanwhile, sees players fight for control of different map zones, while Infected is a last person standing mode in which players attempt to stop becoming infected.

I was playing last night when it kicked me off and forced the update. I dont have much playtime in yet but for the first time ever after the update i was placed in the HQ with many other gamers which was cool. i noticed much less lag during gameplay and i played mostly domination. In my opinion it made the game much more enjoyable with smoother transitions from lobby to game then back to lobby.
