Warzone players have discovered a glitch that lets you play in third-person, offering major advantages during a match.

Winning a match in Warzone is no easy task, so you need to use any means necessary to be the last one standing. This means running the meta guns and ensuring that your controller and PC settings are up to scratch.

But, sometimes, players can gain an upper hand using techniques that the devs didn’t intend. Now, players have uncovered a new glitch that changes your perspective from first-person to third-person.

How to do third-person glitch in Warzone

As discovered by streamer HunterTV, the glitch is done by adjusting your camera settings while parachuting. Here’s a step-by-step guide on what to do:

  1. Head to Quick Settings and remove all your favorites. This will make life easier later.
  2. Then, go into Graphics Settings and find Parachute Camera Perspective.
  3. Make sure it’s set to “3rd Person (Infill Only).”
  4. Add it to the favorites.
  5. Load into a match on any Warzone mode.
  6. Land on a building or ledge high enough for you to deploy your parachute.
  7. Jump off, pull your parachute, and open the settings while gliding.
  8. Switch from “3rd Person (Infill Only)” to “3rd Person.”
  9. Then quickly switch back to “3rd Person (Infill Only).”
  10. When you leave the menus and touch ground, you’ll be in third-person for the rest of the match.
  11. Don’t pull your parachute again for the rest of the match, as this resets the camera.

This game-breaking glitch grants some serious advantages over the rest of the lobby, the main one being extra visibility. From the over-the-shoulder perspective, you can peek around corners without actually having to leave cover, so you’ll know enemies are there long before they spot you.

Those who have pulled off this trick also claim that it buffs the aim assist in every fight, to make up for the lack of iron sights. So, while it doesn’t offer the same level of accuracy as first person, you’re given extra help to stay on target.

It’s already causing issues in-game, as fans have even reported coming up against players using this exploit in Ranked Play.

There are some drawbacks, though, as pulling the parachuting again at any time in the match will reset the camera. To get around this, a Perk like Mountaineer is useful, as it reduces fall damage if you do find yourself on a roof with no other way out.
