While the document does appear to be legitimate, this is likely an internal release date that may change. Nevertheless, at the very least, we now have a rough estimate for the release window of the successor to the popular free to play battle royale first-person shooter from Activision.
Fans shouldn’t expect Warzone 2 to arrive alongside Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, which is slated for release on October 28, 2022. It’s unknown at this point whether Call of Duty Warzone 2 will be its own application or whether it will be a part of Modern Warfare 2, as was the case with the original. The latter is the sequel to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, which was released in 2019. On October 25, 2019, the latter was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It is the sixteenth installment in the Call of Duty series and a reboot of the Modern Warfare sub-series.
The previous game took place in a realistic modern-day setting. The campaign featured a CIA officer and British SAS soldiers as they fought Russian invaders and Al-Qatala terrorists alongside rebels from the fictitious country of Urzikstan. The game’s Special Ops mode provided cooperative play missions that followed the plot.
The multiplayer mode allowed for cross-platform multiplayer and cross-platform progression for the first time in the series. It was designed to make the gameplay more tactical, and it contained additional features such as a Realism mode that turned off the HUD and a 64-player version of the Ground War mode. As a post-launch upgrade, Warzone, a free-to-play battle royale mode, was also added to the game.
