Exciting news for *Call of Duty: Warzone* enthusiasts—the iconic Verdansk map is set to make a triumphant return on March 10, 2025. Initially announced by Activision last August with a nebulous "spring 2025" release window, the anticipation has been building, and now we have a definitive date. A visit to the Call of Duty shop reveals a pop-up titled "The Verdansk Collection," complete with a countdown timer set to expire on March 10, 2025, as reported by InsiderGaming.
Accompanying this announcement is an evocative tri-color sketch featuring an alpine landscape with snow, pine trees, a dam, and a crashed plane—elements that will instantly resonate with fans who've navigated Warzone's original sandbox. These iconic landmarks were part of the Verdansk experience before it evolved into Verdansk '84 in Season 3 and was eventually replaced by Caldera in 2021. Currently, the only way to revisit this beloved map is through Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.
This news comes as a surprise to many, especially after the 2021 announcement that "current-day Verdansk is gone and it's not coming back." The return of Verdansk is sure to reignite the passion of Warzone players who have been eagerly awaiting its comeback.
In related news, *Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2* is now live, bringing a wealth of new content to the multiplayer scene. Players can enjoy five new maps: Bounty, Dealership, Lifeline, Bullet, and Grind, alongside the return of the beloved Gun Game mode, new weapons, and operators. There's also a special Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover event, though it comes with a hefty price tag.
Meanwhile, *Warzone* has seen a lighter content update than anticipated as the development team focuses on crucial gameplay tuning, bug fixes, and quality-of-life improvements to enhance the overall gaming experience.
