The nostalgic landscape of Verdansk makes a grand re-entry, setting the stage for an unforgettable event that’s sure to excite long-time fans. Get ready to dive back into this iconic Battle Royale map with an exciting celebration that combines the beloved classic elements with the latest fan-favorite mechanics. There’s a host of features and surprises awaiting players this time around.
Mark your calendars for April 2, when Season 3 kicks off for PS4 and PS5 with fresh Multiplayer and Zombies content in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. A day later, at 9AM PT on April 3, you can gear up for Verdansk’s thrilling return in Call of Duty: Warzone.
Playing on fond memories, Verdansk has been rebuilt from scratch for a true blast from the past experience. Picture this: 150 players, the original announcer’s voice echoing through the air, the rush of shooting while freefalling, and those cinematic intros — all before you even land.
You’ll notice the original game mechanics are back in full swing, with familiar elements like Supply Boxes, Floating Loot, and Armor Satchels. These are blended seamlessly with current Loadouts and Perks across High Value Loot Zones — where the best gear is stashed.
On top of that, expect some handy quality-of-life updates for Call of Duty: Warzone. These include Squad Redeploys available at Buy Stations, more detailed Attachment descriptions during Weapon Inspects, comprehensive death recaps, and a convenient HUD flag for spotting when your Loadout is ready for purchase.
Explore various game modes that blend trusty classics with fresh experiences, ensuring there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Alongside modes like Battle Royale and Plunder Quads, the new Battle Royale Casual playlist — featuring 28 players and up to 120 bots — offers a perfect spot to practice before diving into the main action.
Gather your team for the Return to Verdansk Event, a thrilling reunion that challenges you to unravel a series of tasks across 12 unique zones. Successfully crack all safes and walk away with the much-coveted Kali Sticks melee weapon.
As a nod to the past, the returning Kilo 141 Assault Rifle stands ready for action as soon as you log into Call of Duty: Warzone after the launch of Season 3. This isn’t the only resurrection; expect to see the CR-56 AMAX Assault Rifle and HDR Sniper Rifle also make a comeback, earnable through the Season 3 Battle Pass.
Don’t miss diving into the new content debuting on April 2 in Black Ops 6, which includes reimagined classic multiplayer maps like Firing Range and game modes such as Demolition and Sharpshooter. Also, test your skills in the eerie new Zombies map, Shattered Veil.
The excitement kicks off early with Black Ops 6 content dropping on April 2 at 9AM PT, and the Warzone content following suit 24 hours later across all platforms. To sweeten the deal, a 24-hour free trial of Black Ops 6 lets you access the entire Season 3 content, allowing you to earn goodies like the Kilo 141, CR-56 AMAX, and HDR before its official launch.
