While fans are excited about Warzone 2, there’s plenty on offer for the more traditional multiplayer modes. Such as new maps, a new Raid co-op mode, and Call of Duty League Moshpit to name but a few.

What’s new with Call of Duty Warzone 2?

  • The huge Al Mazrah Warzone map with 18 points of interest.
  • The DMZ mode is Call of Duty’s take on Escape from Tarkov. In case you didn’t know, Escape from Tarkov is a popular narrative PC military shooter with “hardcore and realistic” gameplay action. I suppose we can think of DMZ as a hardcore version of Warzone.
  • There will be a new Gulag as players will battle it out to earn a place back into the Warzone 2 map if they’re eliminated.
  • Two new vehicles include the Heavy Chopper and Hummer EV.
  • There will also be new gameplay features, including Aquatic Combat, circle collapse in which various areas of the map will close, new Buy Stations, player interrogation for valuable Intel, a third-person playlist as well as Proximity Chat.

  • Two news maps, Shoothouse and Shipment, both 6v6.
  • New three-player co-op Raid mode.
  • New two-player co-op mission, High Ground.
  • Call of Duty League Moshpit.

What else is new in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone?
