The "Call of Duty: Warzone" map will return to the 80s, a leaked trailer has revealed The footage appears to have leaked from an unfinished trailer and shows a new look for Verdansk This may be more of a makeover than completely new content

Earlier reports said that this season would be the last for the Verdansk map The plan was always to make Warzone more in line with Black Ops rather than associate it with Modern Warfare, with the game moving to an 80s theme in February, the existing map was updated, with zombie terminals in missile hangars and shipwrecks hinting at the change were added

The promotional trailer was originally posted on a Twitter account called On Thin Ice The account posted an apology today and removed the video after Activision spewed copyright infringement over the unfinished footage The video appears to still be live on Reddit's Warzone sub Another Twitter user shared a compilation of several key locations for the new Warzone map, but these appear to remain up

However, Activision seems to have confirmed that the leak is real In fact, VGC and its writer, Andy Robinson, had their Twitter accounts locked after posting about the leak Robinson noted that Activision did the same thing last year when it tweeted about an upcoming update that had not been officially announced Activision is apparently happy with the "Barbra Streisand" (an internet term meaning that attempts at online censorship only serve to broadcast more messages by doing these fake DMCA takedowns of journalists who report information) itself

Activision's copyright shenanigans aside, some players have reacted with incredulity to the leak and seem quite frustrated that the game will not be adding any new maps at all this season, which begins on April 22

Professional salt miners on Reddit asked, "Not only do we not get a second BR map, but all we get is Verdansk 20 with less stuff?" I said Part of this disappointment may be related to an earlier leak suggesting that the updated arena will be a pieced together Fireteam map from Black Ops Cold War
