Call of Duty: Warzone: Verdansk's Return Delayed to 2025

The iconic Verdansk map from Call of Duty: Warzone is set to return in early 2025. Activision took inspiration from the success of Fortnite OG.

A new report has provided significant details about the return of Call of Duty: Warzone's iconic map, Verdansk. Initially announced in late 2023, Verdansk was expected to return in 2024. However, it appears these plans have changed.



Return Date and Reasons for Delay
According to a report published on Insider Gaming, Verdansk is now scheduled to be released for Call of Duty: Warzone in "early 2025." Activision initially targeted December 2024, but it seems this date will no longer be met. The reasons for the delay in Verdansk's return are unknown, but it is speculated that Activision wants to align the map's return with a time when more players can participate.

The report also indicates that Activision was inspired by the success of Fortnite OG. Released in late 2023, Fortnite OG featured a limited-time game mode that included the original Fortnite map and weapons, achieving significant popularity. Epic Games' mode reached the highest concurrent player numbers ever. Activision hopes to replicate this success by adding Verdansk to Warzone, creating a similar wave of nostalgia.

What Call of Duty: Warzone will offer for the remainder of 2024 remains uncertain. Last week, the Season 4 Reloaded update brought new content and meta changes to the game. Warzone's Season 5 is on the horizon and is expected to pave the way for the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, anticipated in October. When BO6 arrives, major changes are expected in Warzone, but details on these changes are not yet clear.

The lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic likely contributed to a sense of nostalgia, as people were confined to their homes and unable to participate in their usual activities and social interactions. Everyone at the time were at home playing Warzone.

Just hope that when Verdansk does come back, it lives up to the hype. But, I'm very dissapointed about the delay

Agreed, the delay is disappointing, but if it gives them more time to polish Verdansk and make it a memorable experience, it might be worth the wait...

Yeah, Verdansk really was the peak of Warzone for a lot of players. The wait is frustrating, but if Activision nails the timing and polish, it could bring back that old hype in a big way. Fingers crossed it’s worth it.
