Verdansk is confirmed to be back to Call of Duty Warzone

The launch of Warzone was a phenomenon. Verdansk offered something other battle royale games 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 dropped a nostalgic teaser trailer hinting at Verdansk's comeback. The description confirms its return to celebrate Call of Duty: Warzone's fifth anniversary, slated for Black Ops 6 Season 3's launch on April 3rd.

The teaser evokes a sense of warmth and nostalgia, showcasing Verdansk's beauty with a classic military aesthetic—a refreshing change from the current game's frequent collaborations and fantastical cosmetics. The calm melody accompanying shots of military planes, jeeps, and operators perfectly captures the original Verdansk vibe.

However, player expectations go beyond just the map itself. Many yearn for the original Warzone experience—the mechanics, movement, sounds, and even the graphics. While calls for the original servers' return are widespread, Activision's compliance remains uncertain. Considering the original Warzone, launched in March 2020, boasts over 125 million players, the stakes are undeniably high.
