Since those rumours started circulating at the back end of 2023, new details about the game have been slipping through the cracks. This includes the return of Verdansk.<\/p>\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/insider-gaming.com\/warzone-map-verdansk-return-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Insider Gaming report<\/a> tells us that \u201cthe current plan is to follow the traditional Warzone \u2018main map\u2019 release schedule and have Verdansk return as a part of Black Ops Gulf Wars Season 1\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>If this is true, based on the series\u2019s \u201cannual trend of a late October \u2013 early November release, it suggests that Verdansk is set to return in December 2024\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Time will tell if this report is true.
