Players may encounter several A.I. combatants or bots in the new map of Call of Duty: Warzone 2. These A.I. soldiers don’t spawn everywhere and can only be found guarding special structures known as Strongholds. You can gain access to these POIs to obtain yourloadout, high-tier loot items, and huge sums of cash to spend at theBuy Stations.
How do Strongholds work in Call of Duty Warzone 2?
Strongholds open sometime after the match begins, and the operators have landed in Al Mazrah, generally during the initial few minutes of the game. These structures can be found on every player’s tac map and are marked with a castle icon, as shown in the image above. Once you receive the message confirming Strongholds' activation, feel free to navigate to these sectors.

Once you’ve completed the assigned Stronghold objective, a special chest will pop up from which you can get various high-tier loot items, cash, and most importantly your custom loadout. If you’ve completed the bomb defusal objective by being the first squad to visit a Stronghold, you’ll also receive a Black Site key that you can visit for even better rewards.
