The well-known CoD leaker “TheGamingRevolution” received some new information from dataminers about the Battle Royale of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. This time it’s about the leveling system, details on the “Free to Play,” and a crazy game mode.
What kind of information is this? The YouTuber “TheGamingRevolution” has once again received fresh information from his dataminer friends. The well-known Warzone leaker has already brought several “secret” details to light, and it will be exciting to see what ultimately turns out to be true.
This time it’s about:
- Warzone leveling system
- Details on the “Free to Play“
- a special game mode
That the Battle Royale “Warzone” of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is starting soon seems to be becoming increasingly certain, but there is still no official information. Therefore, we continue to rely on the wisdom of the data and take a look at how the mechanics of “Warzone” could work.
Please keep in mind: Everything presented here is interpretations of data and not certain information. A healthy dose of skepticism is warranted.
Call of Duty: Modern Warzone – The wait continues
How is the leveling system supposed to work? The YouTuber reads from the available data that the leveling and progression system of “Warzone” is the same as in Modern Warfare. This includes:
- The rank
- The weapon levels
- The Battle Pass progress
This trinity of current CoD progress will likely also apply to the Battle Royale. So we can take our unlocked items from multiplayer or even the challenging co-op mode “SpecOps” into Warzone, such as operators or cosmetics.
This also means that soldiers who already have the Battle Pass and their weapons at maximum might find themselves underemployed in the “Warzone.”
For “TheGamingRevolution” this is reason enough to speculate that the Warzone release will coincide with the start of a season. This would mean that we might have to wait another month for the CoD-BR until Season 3 starts – or even longer.
What is there to know about the “Free to Play”? The data suggest that the F2P version of “Warzone” might come with some restrictions.
It looks like players of the free version may not be able to reach the maximum rank or use special operators. “TheGamingRevolution” thinks that while it’s great if the BR comes as F2P, he finds it inappropriate to impose such restrictions to make players more inclined to purchase the full game.
How the free version will look or whether “Warzone” will even come as a free version remains to be seen.
What game mode has been found? The data have indicated for some time that there will be a “Plunder System” in the Battle Royale. We can collect the in-game currency “Plunder” during rounds and use it to request equipment or deposit it at banks scattered throughout the map to earn XP.
This feature likely also plays an important role in varying the gameplay experience. “TheGamingRevolution” mentions a game mode called “Blood Money.” He can only speculate what it entails, but it seems to be a mode where collecting Plunder is the focus rather than eliminating opponents.
There have been previous hints that we might be able to enter and exit the Warzone map in various ways. With this mode, the Battle Royale could be structured very differently, perhaps resembling the raids in “Escape from Tarkov“. We then have a specific objective, need to accomplish it, and defend ourselves against enemy players that we encounter by chance while they are on their own mission.

Players are going nuts and so am I
When is Warzone finally coming? There is still no official information. Many players believed March 3rd would be a safe date for the release. There are a ton of Easter eggs and in-game information that are associated with this date. Instead of the Battle Royale, we got the Tomogunchi. Nice, but not a substitute for solid information about “Warzone”.

When is the next date? The next possible release date, and currently also the last leaked date in circulation, which is set before the start of Season 3, is March 10th. This date has been circulating for a while and thus remains current.
Whether the mode will come on March 10th, whether it will be “Free to Play,” and whether I will survive the next date if the BR does not come again remains to be seen. But the hype is slowly dying down, and the developers should seriously consider if it is not time to bring the first official nuggets of information to the people.
