With Verdansk set to return to Warzone, many data miners have shared leaks regarding this map. First released in 2020, it quickly became a fan favorite. However, it was replaced by Caldera in December 2021, a change that many gamers did not appreciate.
Recently, an X post by @TheGhostOfHope — a verified profile on X — indicated that the map is reportedly getting some major changes, returning to its original state from 2020. This article covers leaks regarding the highly-awaited map, Verdansk.
Note: This article is based on leaks and speculations. Readers are advised to take all the information with a pinch of salt until official confirmation.
Warzone’s Verdansk is reportedly arriving with the Season 3 update
Previously, the large Season 2 Reloaded update size raised concerns among players. This is because the update's content did not justify its size, which ranged between 50 and 80 GB. As such, many data miners claimed that the map might have been hidden in Warzone Season 2 Reloaded update files.
Now, some leaks have hinted at its arrival. Based on information shared by @TheGhostOfHope on X, players might get the map with the Black Ops 6's Season 3 update in March 2025. Here are all the rumored changes that players might witness with the return of Verdansk with the S3 update:
Reconstruction of Verdansk and return of the Train
The map is rumored to be undergoing reconstruction so it looks like the old Verdansk from 2020. @TheGhostOfHope highlighted some crucial changes that might be incorporated into the map. According to the leaked information, the interior of Verdansk's Train Station will be closed; some speculate that an improved version may be unveiled in the future.
Additionally, the roof of the Stadium could be closed, but the previously inaccessible interior will reportedly "be open." Most importantly, the Train is expected to make a comeback with the map's return. The leak also suggested players may no longer be able to fast-travel through the map’s subway system, as it might be shut down.

Three classic weapons are reportedly returning with the map
The CR-56 AMAX, Kilo 141, and HDR are reportedly returning to the map. Veteran Call of Duty players are familiar with these weapons, as they were once part of the meta and could easily eliminate enemies with just a few shots. The CR-56 AMAX and Kilo 141 are both automatic assault rifles, while the HDR is a bolt-action sniper rifle known for its effectiveness in long-range fights.
While Verdansk's return is officially confirmed for spring 2025, leaked information suggests it may arrive sooner than anticipated. If the rumors prove true, players will witness the old Verdansk in March 2025.
