That includes the release of nine post-launch patches, which added six new modes, 15 multiplayer maps, extra REQ items and more.

As a way of helping everyone celebrate, if you log into the game today, you'll receive the Greatest Hits customisation REQ Pack for free.

The post also teased some of the features coming to the game soon that're in development now, such as the ability to browse and join live custom games on Xbox One and Windows 10, the addition of more maps into the Warzone Firefight rotation, a better spectator experience, new Forage canvases, and more.

The studio is also working on matchmaking and server improvements, and promised to talk about them in the near future.
