Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 3 Will Arrive Later Than Expected in Early April

Activision has announced a later-than-expected release date for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Warzone’s upcoming Season 3. The official announcement, shared via Twitter, states:

Season 03 is a big moment for Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops 6, and we’re taking the time to deliver a great experience starting on April 3.

Season 3 will launch on April 3rd, with further details promised next week. This is a departure from the March 20th launch date suggested by the current Battle Pass countdown.

Anticipation for Season 3 is high, fueled by ongoing teases of the Verdansk map's return. Activision has hinted at a spring release, and a recent in-game shop popup hinted at "The Verdansk Collection" arriving March 10th, strongly suggesting the map's comeback.

More comprehensive details regarding Season 3 are expected next week, likely coinciding with the March 10th "Verdansk Collection" release. Until then, players can enjoy Season 2's offerings: five new multiplayer maps, the return of Gun Game, new weapons and operators, and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover event.
