If you want to sharpen your skills in Call of Duty: Warzone without the pressure of the sweaty lobbies, playing against bots will be a perfect way. It will allow you to practice gunfights, improve strategy, and learn the map. While the bot modes are not always obvious, Warzone does offer some ways to face the opponents. Here is how you can get started.

How to play against the bots in Warzone?

An easy way to fight the bots is through the Warzone Bootcamp. It’s a training mode that’s been designed for the new players. The mode drops the players in the Resurgence-style match, with a mix of AI enemies and real players. You can find it in the game's playlist options. Just look for the Bootcamp label.
One another option to fight is Battle Royale Casual. Released on March 3, 2025, it is the low-stakes mode with 120 bots and 28 real players. It is ideal for warming up and exploring Verdansk with no intense competition. Both the modes offer reduced XP compared to the regular matches. But they are great for the refinement of movement, aim, and map awareness.

Tips to dominate bot lobbies

The bots behave quite predictably. It makes them perfect to test the loadouts. Try different attachments and weapons to see what works best before you jump into ranked. The bots are also great for practicing the headshots, as the bots move in straight lines. So, aim for the precision.As the bots do not strategize like the humans, make sure to use the matches to experiment with the rotations and some high-risk plays. Push aggressively to simulate the real fights. You can even practice sniping from a certain distance. An important key here is to treat the bots as moving targets and not just mindless AI enemies.

Why are bot matches important?

Even the experienced players could benefit from the bot lobbies. They are important as they let you master some new mechanics, like quick-scoping or slide-cancelling, without punishment. Additionally, if you are returning after a break, the bots can ease you back with the pace of the game.If you want to have full experience of Warzone, once you warm up with the bot matches, switch to the Standard Battle Royale or Ranked Play. You will notice a difference, but all thanks to your practice against the bots, you will be ready. Just remember, the more you practice, the faster you will be able to dominate the real lobbies.
