‘Call Of Duty: Warzone’ — When Does The New Season 3 Map Go Live?

Following
This article is more than 2 years old.

Big changes are coming to Call Of Duty: Warzone today.

Yesterday we saw the destruction of Verdansk. The original Warzone map went kaput after being nuked into oblivion.

Now, only Rebirth Island—the smaller map introduced in Season 1 of the Black Ops Cold War era—remains, and it’s gone full night mode.

What this means is that as Season 3 kicks off, it will do so alongside a brand new battle royale map.

What this map will be remains to be seen, though leaks and teasers have offered us some clues.

Whatever the new map ends up being, it will be a nice change from same-old same-old Verdansk. While I think Warzone is great fun, I find the map itself to be one of its weaker points. It’s just so colorless and lifeless compared to games like Fortnite or Apex Legends or even Black Ops Cold War. I’m ready for a change.

The new map should go live after the Destruction Of Verdansk Part 2. That event kicks off today at noon PT and should last for around 2 hours. At the end of the event, presumably the new map will go live though I’m unclear if this will be the sort of event where the new map will go live throughout the event, or at the end of the event.

Unlike Fortnite live events, this Season 3 rollout has been staggered. In other words, you could play the first nuke event multiple times, it didn’t just happen all at once. We shall see. Basically starting at noon, the final stage of this transition event will take place and at some point after that the new map will go live.

We’ll have more coverage of all that, of course, including just what exactly this new map entails.

More on that soon, so stay tuned to my blog where I’ll be posting updates throughout the day.
