What’s new in the Warzone Haunting event?

Here is everything that is coming to Warzone as part of the new Haunting event:

LAPA SMG

During The Haunting event, there will be two sets of challenges. Each set has 9 challenges each, for Warzone and Black Ops Cold War, with 19 items of the likes of Weapon Blueprints and more to earn. In addition to rewards earned for completing each challenge players will unlock the new LAPA SMG. The challenges will be based around the new game mode coming to Warzone.

Ghosts of Verdansk

Ghosts of Verdansk is a unique take on battle royale in Warzone where players will not be sent to the gulag if they get taken down. Instead, they will turn into ghosts as long as one party member is alive. Ghosts will not have access to weapons but they will be able to super jump, teleport and stun enemies.

There is also a fear meter that builds up and players will start experiencing hallucinations at 50% or higher. As a surprise for players Raven Software has not revealed what happens if you let the bar go all the way up to a 100%.
