With the launch ofModern Warfare 3came an appreciated surprise forWarzoneplayers: A new map inspired by the original 2019 Battle Royale Drop Zone. Even better, the developers confirmed that this fresh location will feature numerous Points of Interest, each serving to intensify the combat and movement. The following is acomplete list of these POIs, along with tactical descriptions for each.
List of All Points of Interest in the Urzikstan Map
In total, there are 11 Points of Interest inWarzone’s new map, Urzikstan. These include the Old and New Towns, Popov Power, Levin Resort, Seaport District, Urzikstan Cargo, Hadiqa Farms, Zaravan City, Zaravan District, Shahin Manor, and the Orlov Military Base.
Here’s an overview of this map:
Old Town
Located at the center of the map, the Old Town is home to many abandoned and ruined buildings. This particular district will beessential in ambushing rotating enemies, as it is one of the strategically centralized Points of Interest.
Low Town
Near the Old Town, there’s a shantytown called the Low Town. Players should expect close-quarters confrontations and tactical battles in this area because of the dense buildings. They must alsobe prepared for high-ground attacksas the Low Town is exposed to nearby vantage points.
Seaport District
Hosting the most in-water combats, the Seaport District is surrounded by maritime buildings. Thanks to these structures,players can resupply in the areaor push enemies near waterways.
Urzikstan Cargo
Serving as one ofthe best vantage points in the map’s center, the Urzikstan Cargo gives control over the Seaport District, Old Town, and Popov Power. However, the compound itself necessitatesclose-range combatas it’s packed with industrial machinery.
Hadiqa Farms
As the only major POI of eastern Urzikstan, Hadiqa Farms are a collection of wide and open lands. This location isideal for long-range horizontal combatas the high-ground vantage points are limited.
Shahin Manor
Located on the south-east of the map,Shahin Manor is a mansion. The building is strategic as it boastslucrative loot itemsand will probably become one of the most crowded areas after the initial drop.
Zaravan City
Zaravan City is comparable to Al Mazrah City in the previous Warzone map. The location is dense, crammed with skyscrapers, andperfect for close to long-range tactical battles. However, sharpshooters will likely dominate this district as the tall buildings offer a broad view of the city.
Zaravan Suburbs
An access point to the city, Zaravan Suburbs isa low-risk way to ambush crowded parts of the mapin the southern regions. Suburbs are also a tactical choice for players looking to avoid waterways when approaching Zaravan City.
Orlov Military Base
Reminiscing the Countdown map forCoD4: Moden Warfare, the Orlov Military Base is located in the mountainous regions of northern Urzikstan. This geographical advantage makes this POIone of the most critical strongholds.
Popov Power
Popov Power is a deserted part of the map, where most teams willcamp, resupply, and plan their rotation strategy. However, similar to the Orlov Military Base, Popov Power is a high-ground POI that could change the course of the game—especially during the final circles in the upper districts.
Levin Resort
A jam-packed location with low buildings, Levin Resort, is the touristic area of Urzikstan. Players can rely on this POI as anearly-game vantage point and a stronghold.
