Warzone 3’s Fate May Depend on Verdansk Map

Call of Duty: Warzone’s beloved Verdansk map is set to meet players once again. However, according to a new leak, whether Warzone 3 will be developed will depend on whether the map can maintain its popularity. A reliable leaker named TheGhostOfHope has suggested that Warzone 3 could be canceled if Verdansk’s return doesn’t bring a steady increase in players.

Uncertainty Continues for Warzone 3

Verdansk received a great deal of attention when it was released alongside Call of Duty: Warzone in 2020, attracting millions of players. However, the game’s popularity has waned over the years, and Activision plans to bring Verdansk back to its original state in order to rekindle player interest. The map will return with Warzone’s Season 3 update on April 3, 2025.

This return is seen as a strategy similar to Fortnite’s popular “OG map” events. However, there is serious debate among players about whether this will be enough. Some players think that Verdansk may please players who will return for a nostalgic moment, but in the long run, the game’s fundamental problems need to be solved.

The future of Warzone 3 will depend on whether Activision can regain the player base it expects from Verdansk. The company has recently taken various measures to combat cheaters, but it is unclear whether these efforts will be enough to regain players’ trust.

According to leaks, Warzone 3 could come with the new Call of Duty game, which is scheduled to be released in 2026. However, Verdansk’s performance during this period will play a critical role in shaping this decision. In addition to the return of the nostalgic map, players are demanding more effective measures against cheaters and fixing the game’s technical issues. The return of Verdansk could be a turning point for Warzone. However, only time will tell what impact this transformation will have on the development of Warzone 3 and the future of the Call of Duty series.
