Activision has announced a later-than-expected release date for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone’s upcoming Season 3.

The tweet confirms a Season 3 launch date of April 3rd, with further details promised next week. This is a delay from the March 20th date suggested by the current Battle Pass countdown.

Anticipation for Season 3 is high, fueled by ongoing teases of the Verdansk map's return this spring. A recent Call of Duty shop pop-up hinted at "The Verdansk Collection" arriving March 10th, strongly suggesting the map's comeback.

More information is expected next week, likely coinciding with "The Verdansk Collection" release on the 10th. Until then, players can enjoy Season 2's offerings: five new multiplayer maps, the return of Gun Game, new weapons and operators, and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover event.
