February 8, 2023: Want easier lobbies ahead of Season Two? Follow these tips and tricks to give you the upper hand.

The Warzone 2 cycle is well underway and players are looking at how to get Warzone 2 bot lobbies. Skill-based matchmaking (SBMM) is present in the battle royale leaving some looking for ways to enter matches containing easier players.

Bot lobbies are filled with players with a low K/D ratio and those that haven't spent a lot of time playing the game. Joining bot lobbies might not be a fair tactic but there are plenty of high K/D players wanting to score plenty of kills over the course of a match.

Before we take a closer look at Warzone 2 bot lobbies, check out our guides showcasing our early thoughts on the Warzone 2 meta and a closer look at the Warzone 2 map.

Warzone 2 bot lobbies explained

Little is known about Warzone 2 bot lobbies but there's plenty of information on how they work from the first iteration of the game. Perhaps the most familiar way of accessing a bot lobby involves reverse boosting.

Several players deliberately bring their game to an early end to change their K/D ratio in order to enter the bot lobbies. It's a simple process but frowned upon by the majority of the community.

Warzone 2 VPN lobbies

Another way players attempt to access bot lobbies is through a VPN. Using a VPN allows players to select their location meaning they can avoid encountering high-skilled players based in Europe and North America.

Like reverse boosting, using a VPN is frowned upon by the community but it means you may find yourself scoring a huge number of kills worthy of a world record.

Is it worth using a Warzone 2 VPN?

Some may want to use a VPN in a bid to gain an advantage over the opposition but beating players with ease is far less enjoyable than managing to be the last one standing in a lobby full of skilled shooters.

If you're really struggling to score wins, it might be worth using a VPN but if you're more than capable of taking a trip to the winner's circle, it's best to avoid them and carry on playing the game as intended.

Warzone 2 season 1 start date

The first season of Warzone 2 begins as soon as the game launches on November 16. This means you can get your hands on the battle pass, new weapons, and much more as soon as you load in.
