Call of Duty: Warzone is a free battle royale that will receive new content alongside the current paid titles of CoD. However, according to an insider report, this will only last until 2023: That year, Warzone 2 is expected to be released. What is currently known about it will be shown to you on MeinMMO.
Two regularly well-informed individuals have made first statements regarding a successor to Call of Duty: Warzone:
The sequel to the successful battle royale is expected to be released in 2023 and will only run on current consoles and PC. Furthermore, old content that Warzone has accumulated since its release will disappear: “Completely new game for better hardware,” says Henderson on Twitter.
Schreier shows plans for Call of Duty
What does Schreier say? In the report, Schreier confirms that Call of Duty will appear on PlayStation at least this year and in 2023. He claims to have learned this from anonymous sources involved in the deal.
Additionally, the journalist revealed further details about the developers of the next CoD releases:
- CoD 2022 is being developed by Infinity Ward
- CoD 2023 is being developed by Treyarch
- Warzone 2 is coming in 2023 from an unknown studio
The statements from the renowned gaming expert are consistent with the leaks that have already emerged. However, he does not confirm the expected setting “Modern Warfare II” for 2022.
According to leaks, “Modern Warfare II” is coming in 2022 and a reboot of the “Black Ops” series is expected in 2023. The now confirmed development studios also point to this leak.
What does Henderson say? The well-informed leaker has shared a few more details about Warzone 2 following Schreier’s statements.
The game is supposed to be a completely new Warzone, developed exclusively for the current console generation and PC.
Weapons, cosmetics, maps, engine – nothing will remain as it is, and the battle royale will be completely revamped. A “real” Warzone 2.
Recently on MeinMMO, we discussed other major shooter releases in our podcast. Here you can find our current podcast.
Not much is known yet about the possible sequel to Warzone. A similar release timing in the year as with Warzone 1 is possible – that one came out in March 2020. So it could be that close in a year.
However, if CoD follows the same announcement strategy as it did for the first release of the battle royale, there will be no prior information about the game. Warzone was only known through leaks and then hit the market somewhat suddenly.
By the way: What the MeinMMO community thinks about a restart of Warzone, we wanted to know from you a few days ago. And the result is clear.
