Iconic Call of Duty map Shipment has made its highly anticipated Vanguard debut following the latest Preseason Patch.

Shipment’s origins can be traced back to one of the most beloved Call of Duty games of all time. Since appearing in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, fans have experienced several iterations of the classic map. Players enjoyed the most recent version in 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

This time, Shipment gets the World War II treatment. Of course, you can expect to encounter the natural chaos that is synonymous with the map. If you thought Das Haus was pure mayhem, just wait until you load into your first Vanguard Shipment match.

Shipment available in Public Matches

With the November 17 update now live, players can finally enjoy playing on the revamped Shipment Map. The map is playable in public matches.

The nonstop action quality of this map is what makes it so legendary. If Shipment is accessible through all Combat Pacing, keep an eye out for the flurry of bullets that will occur with Blitz.

You should also expect a 24/7 Shipment playlist consisting of multiple game modes. Sledgehammer often gives players the chance to fully experience newly introduced maps with 24/7 playlists. If you’re looking to grind some weapon levels, Shipment will certainly be a must-play.
