Summary
- A leak suggests Verdansk may return to Call of Duty: Warzone in Season 3, reigniting excitement among fans.
- The hinted return could resemble the original map, stirring anticipation.
- Season 3 is expected to coincide with Black Ops 6, promising fresh content even without Verdansk's return.
A thrilling leak has surfaced indicating that Verdansk, the beloved map from Call of Duty: Warzone, might make a comeback in Season 3. Since its debut alongside Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Verdansk has captured the hearts of gamers with its iconic locations like the City Center, Airport, Boneyard, and Suburbs. Although Verdansk made a reappearance in Warzone Mobile, it was exclusive to mobile platforms, leaving console and PC players longing for its return. Over time, Verdansk has been succeeded by various maps including Pacific Caldera, Al Mazrah, Urzikstan, Vondel, and Verdansk '84. While Verdansk '84 retained some similarities, it introduced a distinct aesthetic and omitted landmarks such as the Gora Dam. With the community eagerly awaiting its return, this recent leak has sparked renewed enthusiasm.
The leak, shared by Call of Duty news source Charlie Intel, originated from user TheGhostofHope. The accompanying tweet displayed a screenshot of the Verdansk map, though it remains ambiguous whether it's a datamined image from Season 3 or simply a replica of the original. Unlike Verdansk '84, which was influenced by Black Ops: Cold War, the teased location aligns more closely with the classic Verdansk. As Season 3 is set to overlap with Black Ops 6, this could attract a surge of players, especially considering the steady decline in Black Ops 6's player base post-launch, which wasn't significantly revived by Season 1 or the Squid Game collaboration.
Call of Duty: Warzone Leak Suggests Verdansk Returns in Season 3
Warzone and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2 are slated to kick off on January 28 at 9:00 A.M. Pacific Time across all platforms. This follows a 54-day run for Season 1, potentially setting a precedent for future seasons. Season 2 promises enhancements to the Ricochet anti-cheat system, along with new modes and events. While an exact release date for Season 3 remains unannounced, fans are hopeful for a Spring release, possibly bringing Verdansk back into the fold in March.
Given that this information stems from a leak, it's wise to approach the news with cautious optimism until confirmed by Activision or Treyarch. Nonetheless, Activision's ongoing updates to both Black Ops 6 and Warzone guarantee a steady stream of new content, regardless of Verdansk's fate.
