Summary
- Activision will reportedly continue to update Verdansk post Season 3.
- The map will return on April 3 and will be “pretty much” the original version released in 2020, according to leakers.
- Verdansk map updates are supposedly being planned “throughout Black Ops 6 seasons and beyond.”
A Call of Duty: Warzone insider has claimed that Activision intends to continue updating Verdansk post Season 3, with both new and returning elements. Verdansk was the very first large-scale Battle Royale map to launch alongside Call of Duty: Warzone back in 2020, with its return now officially set for early next month. Although it’s unclear how long the map will be sticking around for, a new leak suggests it could be longer than just a single season.
Back in 2024, Activision surprised fans by confirming that Verdansk will return to Warzone in Spring 2025. While there have been a plethora of leaks and rumors surrounding the map’s return ever since the announcement, Activision celebrated Warzone‘s fifth anniversary on March 10 by confirming that Verdansk will officially return on April 3 with the launch of Season 3. Details on the map’s iconic comeback are currently unknown, but reliable insiders have claimed that it will be the original 2020 version returning next month, with some minor quality-of-life improvements that were introduced in later versions of the map.

Verdansk May Continue to Evolve After Warzone Season 3
Activision has already teased the return of Verdansk’s bunkers in Call of Duty: Warzone, but it looks like the map could be set to receive even more updates and features “throughout Black Ops 6 seasons and beyond,” according to insider TheGhostOfHope. In a new post on Twitter, the Call of Duty leaker said the map will receive new updates in order to “keep people interested.” Hope also stated that Activision doesn’t intend to keep Verdansk as its original 2020 version forever, suggesting that the map will evolve over time as it did during its original release. It’s unclear what kind of map updates fans can expect to see, but the insider claims that they will be both “new and returning.”
The return of Verdansk is shaping up to be a monumental moment for Warzone players, as it appears as though it won’t just be the iconic map making a comeback. A recent leak from the same insider stated that a handful of original Warzone features will be returning with Season 3, including floating loot and red doors, the latter of which teleported players to a different location, usually to a room filled with loot. TheGhostOfHope has also revealed that while Verdansk will return with its original 2020 version, there will be some adjustments. Although the roof of Stadium will remain closed, the leaker claims that its interior will be fully accessible. It was also revealed that the train that once circled Verdansk would also be returning.
Unfortunately, there are still a few weeks left to go until the map’s return, as Activision recently announced that Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops 6 Season 3 has been delayed. The major content update was originally due to launch on March 20, but was pushed back to April 3 as the studio said it was “taking the time to deliver a great experience” as the new season is set to be a “big moment” for both Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops 6.
