When is Warzone Season 3? Verdansk leaks & everything we know

Based on leaks, Warzone fans have much to be excited about in Season 3, including a long-awaited return to the battle royale’s first map.

In Season 2, Raven Software delayed new content in favor of improving quality of life, balancing changes, and fixing bugs. The mid-season update, for example, finally fixed the Mountaineer Perk, revived a Combat Record and stamina bar, and added a new Perk.

Not all of these adjustments went over smoothly, as the devs quickly backtracked on a change that would have prevented players from re-using the same loadout drop after respawning. With all the back-end maintenance out of the way, Season 3 is set to introduce a full slate of content.

Let’s take a look at everything fans can look forward to, including leaks and the expected start date.

Does Warzone Season 3 have an official start date?

There isn’t an official start date for the next season, but based on the Battle Pass timer, we expect Season 3 to start on March 20.

From 2020 to 2021, Verdansk was the primary map for Warzone before being replaced by Caldera. For the first time in four years, the former map is returning.

Initially, rumors claimed Black Ops 6 would launch with Verdansk as its primary battle royale environment. However, on June 27, a leak suggested the iconic map would launch in the middle of the title’s lifecycle instead, pointing toward Season 3.

Additional leaks revealed the map will feature Resurgence as a game mode and closely resembles the original 2020 version. Still, the Train Station POI interior and Stadium roof will be closed but the interior will be open.

While the train will also be available, players shouldn’t count on a fast-travel subway system. Despite the excitement, there is some fear about the remake as Warzone pro-DiazBiffle argued that the devs won’t have time to address the cheating problem before Verdansk launches.
