Reddit user iamDEVANS shared an image of a map allegedly taken from aCall of DutyFacebook group. The map charts a horn-shaped island with a number of nautical-themed landmarks. Places like “beach club” and “shipwreck” dot the landscape, festooned in the center by “castle,” which is sure to be the map’s most hotly contested region. Resurgence mode inCall of Duty: Warzone 2is a smaller-scale, faster-paced version of the typical battle royale, where slain players can get back into the action on a timer (supposing their teammate survives long enough), so the smaller map size seems to be a perfect fit. A bullet-point list in the top corner suggests the map will support 50 players and will be cross-utilized inCall of Duty’sGround Warand DMZ modes.
While possibly fan-made, there is a level of credibility to the assumed leak. Punctilious Reddit user Davzone commented that the silhouette of an island that fits the description, with a castle at its center, appears to be visible while looking off the southern coast ofWarzone 2’sAl-Mazrah map. Other users went on to speculate that the posted image is actually a map of the gulag island, where players duke it out to get back into the action after their first time dying each match. Some skeptical users posted their theories on the image’s lack of credibility, citing several spelling errors and the fact that the image has not been DMCA’d yet.
Whether legitimate or not, the ensuing clamor for a Resurgence mode inCall of Duty: Warzone 2makes it likely to arrive sometime in the near future. This should be welcome news for those who takeissue with traditionalWarzone 2being too slow-paced and meandering. With any luck, their preferred way to play should be out early in 2023.
Call of Duty: Warzone 2is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
