**Santa Monica, CA –** Call of Duty: Warzone’s Season 03 has arrived, bringing back the beloved Verdansk map alongside a host of updates focusing on anti-cheat measures, gameplay refinements, and new content.

The highly anticipated return of Verdansk features adjusted loot distribution to recapture the feel of the original map, alongside improvements to vehicle handling and countermeasures. Players can earn up to 20 rewards, including exclusive skins and weapons, by logging in between April 3rd and 15th. The Battle Pass includes over 110 unlockable items, featuring two new base weapons, new Operators (Hudson and Mace), and the Monolithic Suppressor attachment.

Season 03 also introduces granular console settings, separating Ranked Play options for Multiplayer and Warzone. A new Unranked Multiplayer setting is added for Quickplay, Featured, and Party Games. Ranked Play will be temporarily offline for the first half of the season, undergoing a full rank reset to Bronze before resuming with the Season 03 Reloaded update.

Significant gameplay changes include weapon damage buffs, primarily focusing on Black Ops 6 weapons initially, and adjustments to the omni-movement system for improved balance. The developers have also stated a continued commitment to combatting cheaters, with details on recent anti-cheat progress detailed in a separate report.
