2022’s Modern Warfare 2 to release new Warzone map with classic POIs
A new report claims to shed some new details on what to expect from Infinity Ward’s next title set to release in 2022, including first details on the potential new Warzone map for the game.
According to a report from Tom Henderson, shared via VGC News, Call of Duty 2022 will include a new Warzone map that will launch soon after the game, similar to Vanguard x Warzone’s integration.
Call of Duty 2022 is set to be called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, being a direct sequel to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019.
Per this new report in VGC News, the new Warzone map in development for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II will feature classic Modern Warfare 2 (2009) locations, including an expanded version of Favela, along with other classic maps from the game, like Afghan, Terminal, Quarry, and more.
These classic maps and areas will be stitched together to form the new Warzone map for Modern Warfare II.
Activision declined to comment on the report. No official information on Call of Duty 2022 is expected until mid Summer 2022.
Call of Duty: Warzone’s second massive map will be Caldera, launching on December 3, 2021 as part of the game’s integration with Call of Duty: Vanguard. This will be the first massive new map update for Warzone since its original launch back in March 2020.
The report from VGC also states that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II could feature a new third mode that is similar to Battlefield 2042’s Hazard Zone. Hazard Zone mode in Battlefield 2042 featured a mix of Escape From Tarkov, along with some Battle Royale elements, into a singular mode.
The campaign for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II will be a sequel to Modern Warfare 2019 and feature Task Force 141 taking on Colombian Drug Cartels.
CharlieIntel cannot confirm these above details in regards to the Warzone’s map locales, but we’ve been able to confirm the game will be a sequel to Modern Warfare 2019.
