As previously shown in leaks, Warzone 2.0 releases on November 16, 2022, and will remain free to play.
However, contrary to previous rumours, the new game will also be released on the last-gen consoles, PS4 and Xbox One.
These two releases will work alongside the current-gen releases on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
The new game will also receive a fresh setting, a fictional region of Western Asia called Al Mazrah.
The new mode, DMZ, has been confirmed, and it will be coming to the game day one.
This is a new sandbox experience, apparently from the ‘extraction shooter’ genre, which houses games such as Hunt: Showdown and Escape from Tarkov.
Warzone 2.0 also features a new AI-controlled faction, with higher stakes and more realistic combat scenarios.
Circles will also appear more often, with several showing up at the same time to shake up end-game play.
