Call of Duty Season 3 update – when is it?

Call of Duty is due another season very soon.

These seasons are major events, introducing new storylines, as well as maps, weapons, modes and more.

The latest is 2021 Season 2, and arrived on Thursday, February 25.

And that means Season 3 will begin very soon.

In terms of the main Cold War game, we can expect new guns, maps and Operators.

We’ll also get a brand new Battle Pass that has fresh rewards for you to earn as the season progresses.

The big news relates to Warzone, where huge changes are rumoured.

R.I.P Verdansk?

Multiple leaks have suggested that a new Warzone map is on the way.

It’s meant to be set in the Ural Mountains in Russia, totally replacing the current Verdansk setting.

Several maps that exist in the game (Apline, Ruka and Sanatorium) are already set in the Ural Mountains.

These maps are very large, and are currently used for Fireteam: Dirty Bomb.

But they could be repurposed for Warzone next season.

Of course, Call of Duty’s creators haven’t confirmed any such changes.

But as Warzone is now more than a year old, it could be ripe for a change.

We’re expecting Season 2 to end sometime in April, marking two months from its February 24 debut.

Call of Duty Season 2 – mid-season update

Of course, we’re still waiting for Season 2 to wrap up.

Call of Duty released an infographic showing the roadmap for Season 2, and not all of the new content has been added yet.

For a start, we’re still waiting for two new maps: Golova and Mansion.

The former is a multiplayer map, while the latter is Gunfight-only.

Call of Duty is also getting a revamped version of the Cold War Miami map, which will take place in the daytime.

The R1 Shadowhunter crossbow is still incoming, as well as the ZRG sniper rifle.

There’s more Zombies content, with a new map for the Outbreak mode.

And finally, two of the Operators revealed for Season 2 will shortly arrive: Karla Rivas and Terrell Wolf.

The Season 2 update went live on February 24 between 9pm and 11pm PT, or between 5am and 7am on February 25 in the UK.

Sadly, Call of Duty bigwigs haven’t confirmed when the mid-season update will take place.

But each season typically lasts around two months.

That means a mid-season update could be just days away, given that we’re approaching the one-month mark since Season 2 launched.

We’ll update you as we know more.
