Aside from being a nod to a memorable location from the originalBlack Opsand theCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warcampaign, Yamantau is one of severalleakedCall of Duty: Warzonelocations. Joining the Duga, Forest, Russia, and Ski Slopes locations in the game’s files, players have been expecting either fresh area or an entirely new map for some time now. According to TheGamingRevolution, it will be the latter, and the map will supposedly be about the same size as Verdansk.
Merging all of the Fireteam Dirty Bomb maps into one location, players will be able to travel from Mt. Yamantau to the Sanatorium location via bikes, helicopters, or through water — an interesting touch since boats and swimming are not available in Verdansk. According to TheGamingRevolution, who provides a drawn-up map as to what this “Ural Mountains” map will supposedly look like, iconicmultiplayer map remakessuch as Summit and Downhill are possible, fitting perfectly into the ski slopes area.
A swampy area will also supposedly be added to the map, as well as a Chernobyl-inspired location being seen in the Duga area of the map. Ural Mountains certainly sounds like it has the right amount of variety needed for a battle royale map to work, and it could be the breath of fresh air thatCall of Duty: Warzoneplayers need. Aside from the newRebirth Island easter egg, leaked code, and a reputable source sharing the information, this map would be made up of Fireteam maps in a similar way to how Verdansk is made of Ground War maps.
It certainly seems like a full new battle royale map is coming, and according to TheGamingRevolution, it will be out by March — coinciding with the release ofCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold WarSeason 2 andCall of Duty: Warzone’s anniversary. As such,fans ofCall of Duty: Warzoneshould not have to wait much longer for a change of scenery.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
