A recent Call of Duty: Warzone leak hints at the possible return of the beloved Verdansk map in Season 3. Since Warzone's launch, Verdansk has remained a fan favorite, and its potential reappearance is generating considerable buzz.
Initially, Verdansk was the sole map in Call of Duty: Warzone, launched alongside Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Iconic locations like City Center, Airport, Boneyard, and the Suburbs defined the Verdansk experience. While it later appeared in Warzone Mobile, limiting its accessibility to console and PC players, its absence from the main Warzone title has been keenly felt. Verdansk has since been replaced by maps like Pacific Caldera, Al Mazrah, Urzikstan, Vondel, and Verdansk '84. Although Verdansk '84 shared some similarities, it differed aesthetically and lacked key landmarks like the Gora Dam. This leak could reignite the excitement surrounding the battle royale for many players eagerly awaiting Verdansk's comeback.
Gaming news outlet Charlie Intel reported on the leak, citing information from user TheGhostofHope. While a screenshot of the Verdansk map accompanied the tweet, its origin—datamined Season 3 assets or a copy of the original map—remains unclear. Unlike the significantly altered Verdansk '84 (based on Black Ops: Cold War), the teased location appears closer to the original. Similar to Black Ops 6 Season 1, Warzone's Season 3 will likely overlap with the main game, potentially attracting a surge of players. Black Ops 6, since its release, has seen a player decline, a trend not significantly reversed by Season 1 or the recent Squid Game collaboration.
Call of Duty: Warzone Leak Suggests Verdansk Returns in Season 3
Warzone and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2 launch across all platforms on January 28th at 9:00 AM Pacific Time. This suggests a 54-day Season 1, potentially setting a precedent for Season 2 and future content releases. Season 2 is expected to include Ricochet anti-cheat improvements and may introduce new modes and events. While a release date for Season 3 is unconfirmed, a Spring release is anticipated. Therefore, if the leak proves accurate, Verdansk could return to Warzone in March.
It's crucial to remember that this Verdansk return is based on a leak, and confirmation from Activision or Treyarch is needed. Activision's ongoing updates to Black Ops 6 and Warzone guarantee new content regardless of Verdansk's potential comeback.
