The launch of Warzone was a phenomenon. Verdansk offered something other battle royales couldn't match, captivating millions. Now, with Black Ops 6 facing challenges, the return of this iconic map could revitalize the player base.
Activision has released a nostalgic teaser trailer hinting at Verdansk's comeback, timed perfectly for Call of Duty: Warzone's five-year anniversary. The trailer, set to a soothing melody, showcases Verdansk's charm—military aircraft, jeeps, and operators in a classic military style, a refreshing change from the current game's abundance of collaborations and fantastical cosmetics. The official return is slated for Black Ops 6 Season 3, launching April 3rd.
But there's a crucial point: players crave more than just the familiar Verdansk streets. They yearn for the original game's mechanics, movement, sounds, and even its graphics. Many are calling for the resurrection of the original Warzone servers, a request unlikely to be met by Activision. Since its March 2020 launch, over 125 million players have experienced the original Warzone.
