Since launching to resounding success last year, Activision’s battle royaleCall of Duty: Warzonehas received constant updates to keep its content fresh. In December, those updates took a whole new direction whenCall of Duty: Warzoneintegrated withBlack Ops Cold War, the newly released title from Treyarch and Raven Software. The first season following that integration is expected to end February 24, according to Dexerto, and now fans are finding teasers for what new features may be coming to the game soon.
A newCall of Duty: Warzoneupdate was released February 12by Raven Software, one that fixed some problems like hit markers not registering properly and weapon XP not being awarded via multiplayer matches inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare. This update also prepared for the franchise’s Valentine’s Day celebration, which includes a new mode called Kiss Confirmed inBlack Ops Cold War. However, fans began to notice teasers around the open-world map of Verdansk shortly after it released.

The most notable teaser, seemingly first documented byCall of Duty: Warzoneplayer SavageSesh on Reddit, is distant storm clouds that occasionally let off flashes of lightning. That video first uploaded to the r/CODWarzone subreddit Friday has been shared across the Internet, and many fans believe it could point to a dynamic weather system in Season 2.
While this is speculative for now, meaning it’s unclear exactly what dynamic weather over Verdansk would entail,Warzonewould not be the first battle royale to toy with such a concept.PlayerUnknown’s BattlegroundsSeason 9 featured a dynamic mapthat had an active volcano in the center, ensuring players would not know where lava flows were headed whenever they dropped in.
OtherCall of Dutyplayers have noted the storm clouds, with Redditor HuckleberryFinn7777 pointing to them appearing over the Downtown/Park area. However, they and other users have also noted a mysterious boat is headed toward Verdansk that could contain something entirely different to kick off Season 2 - perhaps having to do with theBlack Opsseries' staple Zombies.
Whatever developers are teasing forCall of Duty: WarzoneSeason 2, players will likely only have to wait a few weeks before finding out exactly what it will entail. The battle royale continues to be popular, with even sports stars likeKansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes talking aboutWarzoneprior to the recent Super Bowl, so whatever is coming next should offer more fun to keep those fans invested.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
