It is no secret that the launch of Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone Pacific Season 1<\/a> didn’t exactly sit well with fans. Some believe that not even Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard<\/a> can save Warzone, and others hope for a completely fresh, new start, on a better engine, focusing on new hardware for a true next-gen battle royale experience. That’s where the rumours of COD Warzone 2<\/a> come into play, and they are from some credible sources.<\/p>\n

Getting all excited about the possibility of a brand-new battle royale in the Call of Duty universe, we provide you with speculation on Warzone 2’s release date, platforms, weapons, maps and more.<\/p>\n

Please note that we will endeavour to update this article once more information about Warzone 2 and its content becomes available. No images inside this article are from Warzone 2, as it has not been officially revealed.<\/em><\/p>\n

What is Warzone 2’s release date?<\/h2>\n

At the time of writing, there’s no official release date for Warzone 2. While Activision has yet to even announce the next battle royale experience, we can speculate a bit.<\/p>\n

Warzone released in March 2020, and players really shouldn’t expect Warzone 2 to release this year. Instead, the earliest release date window we can estimate for Warzone 2 is late 2023, and this estimation is based on a tidbit of platform information.<\/p>\n

Warzone 2: Expected platforms<\/h2>\n

Warzone 2 is expected to be a current-gen experience. To be clear, this means Warzone 2 might only be available on PS5, Xbox Series X\/S, and PC.<\/p>\n

According to industry insider Tom Henderson on Twitter<\/a>: “Warzone 2 is literally that… Warzone 2. Current gen and PC only…No past weapon integrations etc.  A completely new game for the better hardware.”<\/p>\n

Mr Henderson went on to explain the current-gen situation, and mentioned next year’s COD title as well: “I think Xbox and Sony are producing 20-25 million current-gen consoles combined now. There’s 20 million or so already in circulation, so 60 million minimum by the time it releases. COD 23 is also current-gen only as well last I heard. All just depends on COVID.”<\/p>\n

Therefore, the expected platforms for COD Warzone 2 is PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S, with PS4 and Xbox One consoles being left behind.<\/p>\n

Warzone 2 weapons and map<\/h2>\n

Industry insider Tom Henderson explained that there will be “No past weapon integrations” in Warzone Season 2.<\/p>\n

For a lot of players, the number of weapons in Warzone Pacific is just too high, as multiple COD titles’ guns have been integrated, even from different eras. A smaller, more focused list of weapons could be exactly what Warzone 2 needs, and if the game wants to be successful, Activision will surely have to ramp up their anti-cheat efforts even more.<\/p>\n

\"Call
Could Warzone 2 have a futuristic setting? (Picture: Activision)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

With Warzone 2 being a completely new game, we expect a completely new map as well, and multiple game modes to go along with it. Speculation is that Warzone 2 could feature a modern or even futuristic map, depending on the setting and timeline of Call of Duty 2023.<\/p>\n

Remember to take information such as this with a grain of salt until Warzone 2’s content details are officially revealed to the world. The information inside this article will be updated once we know more.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, it is based on speculation and recent rumours from an industry insider.<\/p>\n
