Whereas theBlack Ops 4Blackout map used locations from Treyarch-developedCall of Dutygames, theModern WarfareWarzone map will apparently use locations from Infinity Ward-developedCall of Dutygames. According to the video, maps that will be used on the Warzone map include Broadcast, Overgrown, Scrapyard, and thefan favoriteModern Warfare 2map Terminal. It’s unclear if other popular map locations from Infinity WardCall of Dutygames will be used as well.
Besides touching on theModern WarfareWarzone map, the Chaos leak also revealed some other interesting details about the game. According to the leak,Modern Warfare’s Warzone mode will be free-to-playwith cross-play support, and it will feature solos, duos, and trios. Additionally,Modern Warfare’s Warzone mode will also apparently have two different game modes for players to try.
The first is a standard battle royale mode, but the other is Plunder, which has some interesting rules. In Plunder, players collect cash that can be used to purchase things like killstreaks and revive tokens. When using revive tokens, players are thrown into a 1v1 match on theGulag Gunfight map, and if they win, they can rejoin the game. Apparently, this feature will be turned off in the later stages of a match.
Theseleaked Warzone detailssound interesting, and luckily, it seems fans won’t have to wait long to find out more. A countdown timer has appeared inModern Warfareitself, teasing that either a reveal or a launch will be happening within the next 24 hours.
