Get ready, Call of Duty: Warzone players! The highly anticipated return of the beloved Verdansk map is almost here. Activision, after initially hinting at a spring 2025 release last August, has now narrowed it down: March 10th, 2025. A countdown timer on the official Call of Duty shop confirms this exciting news (thanks to InsiderGaming for the heads-up).
A teaser image accompanying the countdown depicts a classic Verdansk scene: snow-capped mountains, pine trees, a dam, and a crashed plane—a nostalgic trip down memory lane for veteran players. This evocative imagery brings back memories of the original Verdansk map, before its replacement by Verdansk '84 and then Caldera. Currently, the only way to experience this version is through Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.
This announcement is especially thrilling for fans who were previously told that the original Verdansk was gone for good. The return is set to be a major event for the game.

Meanwhile, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2 has launched, bringing five new multiplayer maps (Bounty, Dealership, Lifeline, Bullet, and Grind), the return of Gun Game mode, new weapons, operators, and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover event. Warzone, however, has received less new content than initially planned as the team focuses on bug fixes, gameplay tuning, and quality-of-life improvements.
