Is a new gulag coming to Call of Duty: Warzone in Season 3?

Will you duke it out in a new location?

There are a lot of things changing in Call of Duty: Warzone for Season 3. Before the new map was released, on April 21, players were given the chance to participate in a live event called Destruction of Verdansk Part 1 at 3 PM ET where anyone who died on the map turned into a zombie. Once everyone in the lobby had become a zombie, a cutscene played out, and a nuke went to the center of the Verdansk map, with what happens next being completely unknown. The next part of the live event is set to happen on April 22 at 3 PM ET, where a new map is set to release. With this altered map, players are curious if this location will feature a new gulag.

There have been many leaks coming out regarding the revamped map for Call of Duty: Warzone Season 3. A handful of players were able to create a private Warzone match to investigate the map. They could see that the map was still Verdansk, but it would be a ‘Flashback’ version of it from the 1980s, with a handful of new locations. Another player supposedly had the chance to check out the new gulag. We can now confirm that the new gulag for the map is a recreated version of Standoff, and you’ll be fighting against other players here after you die to try and win back your chance of returning to the fight.

In this version of the map, there are several obstacles and terrain for players to navigate through. You can expect to jump up on several levels to avoid fire and try to outmaneuver your opponent. It’ll take players plenty of matches for everyone to grow used to again. The weapons you receive for the gulag matches are also heavily modified, with unique attachments to make the combat much more interesting.
