Exclusive Sneak Peek: Call of Duty: Warzone Unveils Epic, Game-Changing New Map!

Highlights

Call of Duty fans were given a tantalizing hint by Activision as they teased the upcoming unveiling of a new Warzone map. Scheduled to be revealed on October 5 during the Call of Duty Next event, speculation is buzzing that this highly anticipated map may be a thrilling revamp of the beloved Verdansk.

The next mainline installment of Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 3, will bring about changes to the free-to-play battle royale game. Additionally, the livestream event will showcase multiplayer modes from Modern Warfare 3 and offer a sneak peek at updates for Call of Duty: Mobile.

Activision has released a sneak peek of a new map for Call of Duty: Warzone, which will be released alongside Modern Warfare 3 in November. This teaser serves as a prelude to the Call of Duty Next event on October 5, where the map's full reveal will take place, along with other exciting announcements.

Warzone, initially launched in early 2020, was the flagship battle royale game in the Call of Duty series until its sequel was released in late 2022. In September, Activision shut down the original game's servers and rebranded the sequel as Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0. While Modern Warfare 3 will not have a separate Warzone game, the free-to-play battle royale title will undergo some changes to coincide with the launch of the next mainline Call of Duty game.

Activision recently teased a brand-new map on social media, sparking excitement among fans. The teaser image featured a port on a wide canal leading up to a city. The publisher announced that the full reveal of the map, along with live gameplay footage and a breakdown of new game features, will be showcased during the October 5 Call of Duty Next broadcast. Raven Software, the subsidiary co-developing Call of Duty: Warzone with Infinity Ward, will provide insights on the game. While no further details were provided by the publisher, some fans believe that the teaser alludes to the return of the original Call of Duty: Warzone Verdansk map. The bend in the canal at the newly unveiled port resembles the topography of Verdansk, leading to speculation about the map's comeback.

Activision has dropped subtle hints suggesting Verdansk's presence in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. However, this is the first indication that a new version of the map may also be included in an upcoming season of Warzone. In addition to addressing this matter, the upcoming Call of Duty Next livestream will feature multiplayer modes from Modern Warfare 3 and offer a sneak peek at what's to come for Call of Duty: Mobile. The livestream is scheduled to start on October 5 at 9 AM PT. Currently, Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
