Activision is unveiling the next stage of Verdansk, initially introduced in March 2020 as the initial map for Call of Duty: Warzone. In a matter of days, it’ll be reintroduced, and while most fans are thrilled… there’s a fair amount of anticipation too.

In a freshly released video online, Activision’s developers have revealed the details behind recreating Verdansk once more, explaining the technological enhancements implemented to give it a fresh, almost new game feel while still maintaining the iconic atmosphere of Warzone. Naturally, the updated movement system will provide a different gaming experience compared to five years ago.

The anticipation is palpable!
