Warzone's Area 99 map: First look revealed
Call of Duty has revealed an image of the map, and now we have a basic idea of how it would look like. Previously there were Area 99 codenames hidden in the game data files, and leakers had claimed that Warzone might receive a brand new Resurgence map with the Black Ops 6 release.
While the developers have yet to announce whether the map would be the traditional battle royale or resurgence type, popular COD leaker @TheGhostofHope states it's the latter. He also claims the map will launch alongside Urzikstan updates in Season 1.
