Call of Duty: Warzone (buy now ) 2.0 takes place in the fictional Republic of Adal in West Asia, which lies on a coast and is not only strategically but also materially of great interest for international affairs because of its rich deposits of raw materials. Accordingly, the capital of Adal, namely Al Marazh, is the focus of the battles of Warzone 2.0.

The game’s new battle zone has various strategic points, including an oasis, an oil refinery, a quarry, the city of Al Mazrah itself, an observatory, a swamp area with caves, an airport, several villages and a shipping port. The developers have already published images of these locations in an official blog post about the game, and more information about their role in Warzone 2.0 is to follow.

Finally, Activision has also announced when exactly Warzone 2.0 will appear. The release of the battle royale title is set to come shortly after the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, which will be released on October 28, 2022. Warzone 2.0 will launch a short time later in conjunction with Modern Warfare 2 Season 1, on November 16, 2022.
