Call of Duty: Season 3 Reloaded Ignites Verdansk with Nostalgia and New Features
Call of Duty fans, prepare for a blast from the past! Season 3 Reloaded is set to drop, bringing a wave of exciting updates to both Black Ops 6 and Warzone. The update promises to reignite the thrill of Verdansk with returning features and fresh content. But what's new, and why should you be excited? Let's dive in.
Verdansk's Nostalgic Revival
The return of Verdansk in Season 3 was already a massive hit, tapping into the nostalgia of long-time Warzone players. Now, Raven Software is dialing up the excitement by reintroducing iconic elements that made the map so beloved. Get ready for the return of the Verdansk train! This mobile hotdrop, loaded with loot, is sure to spark intense early-game battles and offer a unique way to traverse the map.
Two more classic contracts are making a comeback: Big Game Bounty, targeting the player with the highest kill count, and the Train Recon contract, challenging players to secure an objective on the moving train. Additionally, High Value Loot Zones will designate specific areas on the map with increased top-tier loot, creating high-risk, high-reward scenarios.
And for those craving speed and agility, the Triumph TF 250-X dirt bike from Rebirth Island is now available in Verdansk.
Ranked Play Finally Arrives in Verdansk
In a move celebrated by competitive players, Season 3 Reloaded introduces Ranked Play for Verdansk. The original Verdansk never had a ranked experience, making this a long-awaited and significant addition.
To maintain a balanced ranked ecosystem, SR values are being re-tuned to better reflect the larger map, gameplay changes, and overall game economy. There are also restrictions. Alertness has been removed from the restricted perk list, and the Trophy System is added to the buystation to enable planning for a safer vehicle rotation.
New Weapon, New Event
A new weapon is joining the fray: the Ladra SMG. This full-auto submachine gun boasts an extreme rate of fire, excellent range, and low recoil, making it a formidable addition to any player's arsenal. The Ladra SMG can be earned as a reward in the new High Art event, a collaboration with Seth Rogen featuring a distinctly "stoner-themed" reward track. Expect wild cosmetics and other goodies.
Black Ops 6 Updates
Weapon Balancing: The Kilo 141 AR is getting a small reduction to its max damage range, while the CR-56 AMAX AR receives a damage reduction and will now take one more headshot. The HDR sniper rifle is getting a buff to the maximum damage and it receives a slightly lower maximum damage range.
Game mode fixes: The patch notes address issues where players were not correctly receiving the proper score in matches. This includes one where all players would not receive score points for capturing a Headquarter and another that caused only the first player on a Control zone to receive proper score and stats. The update reduces the amount of score points earned from Chopper Gunner eliminations from 50 down to 25.
The Season 3 Reloaded update is packed with content designed to rekindle the magic of classic Warzone while introducing fresh challenges and rewards. Will you be jumping in to ride the train, dominate Ranked Play, or unlock the new Ladra SMG? Let us know in the comments below!
