Overview[]
Call of Duty: Warzone[]
In Plunder, squads race to collect one million in cash. Each match only lasts 30 minutes. Unlike Battle Royale, players have unlimited respawns and redeployments and can spawn with their own loadouts and Field Upgrades.
In order to accumulate the most amount of cash before time runs out, squads can open Supply Boxes, taking and completing Contracts or eliminating players who will drop a percentage of the cash they were holding before dying. Cash Drops containing $100,000 can also appear around the map. The squads with the most money are marked on the Tac Map of all players by a red bag icon and a red crown icon for the squad with the most cash.
To prevent losing the cash, players can deposit it using a Cash Deposit Balloon, acting as a Field Upgrade, which can be found in Supply Boxes or bought from Buy Stations for $30,000 allowing players to deposit up to $150,000. Players can also deposit all their cash by calling a Deposit Helicopter at fixed Cash Deposit Points marked on the Tac Map with Piggy Bank icons. Once a squad has called the helicopter, other squads are notified and the active Deposit Point is highlighted on their Tac Map.
Once a squad has reached $1,000,000, an overtime timer appears with a 4-minute countdown and all the cash collected afterward is automatically deposited. In addition, all the cash collected by every squad during the overtime is multiplied by 1.5x. The match ends after the standard 30 minutes or after the 4-minute timer.
