Audio files for Warzone season-ending ‘Plague’ game mode reportedly leaked
Voice lines for an upcoming Warzone game mode believed to be called ‘Plague’ have been leaked, which indicates Verdansk being nuked.
Audio files for a Warzone game mode called ‘Plague’ apparently have been leaked, which appear to confirm Verdansk will be nuked after its overrun by Zombies.
It’s long been theorized that the Zombies which arrived on the cargo ship by Prison will overrun Verdansk, which will cause the map to nuked, taking players to the Ural Mountains.
Audio files leaked by ‘ZestyCODLeaks‘ appear to confirm this theory, with an upcoming game mode called ‘Plague’ potentially coming to Warzone. As revealed by these voice lines, Zombies have overrun the Warzone map and you must take it back. Announcers will try to keep you motivated, telling you, “this is our last chance to save Verdansk.”
Here are some of the voice lines that have been leaked:
- “This is the final hour. Avoid the infected at all costs.”
- “Don’t turn into a Zombie! For Verdansk!”
- “We can’t lose Verdansk, fight those damn Zombies!”
There will also be “Plague Zones,” which we presume you are tasked with clearing out as part of this new mode.
Like Black Ops Cold War Zombies, you will get the opportunity to exfil out of the map. As revealed in the audio files, if you fail to exfil in time, you will be nuked along with Verdansk. The audio files include the announcer stating: “Extraction canceled, nuke inbound for Verdansk.”
This confirms the long-running theory that Verdansk will be nuked to make way for a new map, which is all-but-confirmed to be the Ural Mountains. The appearance of Missile Silos in the Season 2 update further bolster this theory.
Also in these game files is a Sandbox mode taking place in the Warzone map, which will have “vehicle races, parachute races, and a shooting range.”
We’d like to say that these voice lines are taken out of context, and may not even make it to the game.
No further events have been confirmed but as Warzone Season 2 progresses, we will learn more about the future of Verdansk.

JGOD believes there’s no reason to use KBM instead of controller in Warzone
Warzone YouTuber JGOD has explained why there’s no reason to use mouse and keyboard instead of a controller.
With Call of Duty: Warzone using crossplay, the community is split between controller and mouse and keyboard. While a mouse typically offers more precision, YouTuber JGOD explained why he thinks controller is the better option.
Like almost any triple-A shooter on the market, Warzone pits both controller and mouse and keyboard players against each other. There’s long been a debate about which input is better, with each having its unique pros and cons.
Mouse and keyboard offers much more precision and fine-aim control, but a controller’s aim assist does a ton of the work for you, allowing you to snap on and track players with ease — especially at close-range.
In an August 10 stream, YouTuber JGOD explained why he feels controller players will always have the edge, and why there’s no reason to use a keyboard and mouse.
“I think it’s easy for any controller player to kill any keyboard and mouse player,” explained JGOD. “It’s literally what aim assist is for.”
“I don’t understand why people play on keyboard and mouse on CoD, it’s just asking for frustrations with the game,” he continued. “I would say even if you’re really good on keyboard and mouse, you probably feel really good, but you watch your killcam and you always feel cheated.”
JGOD is so confident in controller and aim assist’s power that he believes that if he put 100 controller and 100 keyboard and mouse players against each other at random, “the controller players would dominate the keyboard and mouse players on average.”
He did say that this probably wouldn’t be the case in Apex Legends, but in Warzone, “the controller players would dominate them.”
Whether aim assist will be tweaked in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 remains to be seen, but JGOD believes that nerfing aim assist wouldn’t work because the high-skilled players would continue to dominate and lower-skilled players would struggle even more.

Warzone players slam “awful” Terminator camo challenges
Warzone Pacific players are extremely frustrated with the challenges to unlock Terminator camos in Season 4 Reloaded.
Raven Software added new Terminator cosmetics at the start of Warzone Pacific Season 4 Reloaded, and players have expressed their frustration with the crossover’s challenges.
Warzone Pacific Season 4 Reloaded features a plethora of fun content for players to enjoy, including the Terminator crossover which brought new Operator skins and challenges to the game.
Successfully completing these in-game challenges will grant you access to numerous Terminator-themed rewards, but they are being heavily criticized by the Warzone community.
Reddit user ‘AceOfSpades90000000’ slammed these challenges in the Warzone Pacific subreddit, describing them as “awful” because of the abundance of lag and enemies using aimbots.
The Redditor claimed that these problems make it “practically impossible” to win 4 games and then expressed their admiration for those players that were able to successfully complete the Terminator challenges.
Many of the commenters agreed that the challenges are too difficult and frustrating to complete. However, not everyone agreed about aimbots being an issue, as users offered their own criticisms of the challenges.
A few players felt that the rewards being offered aren’t worth the effort required to unlock them. One user wrote: “The rewards are terrible. Am I seeing things or is the same calling card there 4 times with slightly different colors?”
The rewards also include new weapon camos that are inspired by the looks of different Terminators such as the T-800 and liquid metal T-1000 from the movies, but unlocking them is proving to be challenging.
One of the commenters claimed to have played all day without much success: “All I need is 2 wins for liquid metal but it’s impossible because everywhere I go, I get rolled and I’m not even bad at the game.”
Despite these criticisms, a few users in the thread defended the Terminator crossover and provided their fellow players with advice on how to get these challenges done quickly.
One player suggested trying the first challenges since they’re easy to complete in just a few games. You’ll have a better chance of winning 4 games if you hop into the challenges with a squad that’s comprised of your friends.
While some players have expressed their disappointment with Warzone’s Terminator crossover for being a huge missed opportunity, there are those that are able to have a good time and get these challenges done.
