The release date of recently released Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile with the patch. Every so often, Warzone gets massive updates that not only add more playable content but even reshape the maps on which players fight each other.

The battle royale game’s update schedule soft-resets after the release of new mainline titles in the series, meaning this is not the first Season 3 that Warzone has seen. It is, however, the Season 3 that is directly linked to the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 back in November 2023. The new update will further establish the connection between the battle royale and the game, bringing a load of new content for several of the products in the series, including Call of Duty: Warzone itself.

Call Of Duty: Warzone Season 3 - Release Date

The release date of the highly anticipated update has been officially announced by Activision in a release to the press. According to the company, the Season 3 update for Call of Duty: Warzone is set to arrive on April 3. This is the date when all the major changes across most of the Call of Duty games will occur. On this day, changes will take place in Warzone, Modern Warfare 3’s multiplayer modes, the Zombies mode, and even Warzone Mobile. This is also the day when limited-time content from Season 2 will permanently leave the games.

Call Of Duty: Warzone Season 3 - Rebirth Island & Game Modes

The most notable aspect of the Season 3 update for Warzone itself is the return of Rebirth Island as the main combat destination for the battle royale. The map, which was first released as Alcatraz in Call of Duty: Blackout, is a fan-favorite, and its return is very anticipated. The arrival of Rebirth Island also brings forth the update to the Ranked Resurgence season, which will occur on this specific map. For Ranked Play, players will have to master the new version of Rebirth Island using the Resurges rules they’ve grown accustomed to.

Additionally, Season 3 of Call of Duty: Warzone comes accompanied by several smaller updates, including biometric scanners, smart displays, weapon trade stations, and even a new Resurgence Champion’s quest, set on Rebirth Island. The iconic map will also be affected by varying times of day, which can significantly alter a player’s approach to strategy. Infils will also occur on landmarks, such as the Lighthouse, the Prison’s roof, and the Watch Tower. Activision has mentioned there will be “optimized combat” for Season 3’s Rebirth Island, though it has not gone into detail about what that entails, specifically.

Call Of Duty: Warzone Season 3 - Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer & Zombies Updates

Aside from the battle royale mode, the Season 3 update will also affect Modern Warfare 3’s multiplayer modes. In fact, the game will get six new 6v6 maps for players to battle in. Activision mentions that three of them are brand-new, while one of them is a remaster, and the remaining two are “repurposed” points of interest from Vondel and Rebirth Island – this means these last two are likely smaller portions of these maps adapted for the 6v6 encounters that take place outside of Call of Duty: Warzone’s battle royale genre.

Multiplayer in Modern Warfare 3 is also getting a treat with four game modes, and the publisher teasing even more. So far, the announced modes include Capture the Flag, One in the Chamber, Escort, and Minefield. The two latter modes will not arrive when the Season 3 update for Call of Duty: Warzone drops and, instead, will be incorporated later in the season. Sledgehammer Games also crafted three new Perk Vests, new Boots, and new Gear for players to equip in multiplayer, alongside a new Tactical EMD Mine and Enhanced Vision Goggles, which should be added later on.

The exact date Escort and Minefield arrive has not yet been announced.

In addition to its multiplayer modes, the Zombies mode in Modern Warfare 3 is also getting revamped with the Season 3 update. The main campaign storyline, revolving around the Dark Aether saga, is set to continue with the opening of a third Rift.

Players will have to embark on a rescue mission in which they must find and recover Ava Jansen from a new menacing area with the help of Sergei Ravenov. Among the threats of the new Rift is a new Disiciple variant Zombies will also have a new Warlord with Call of Duty: Warzone - Season 3, called Rainmaker, as well as three new Schematics.

Call Of Duty: Warzone Season 3 - Integration With Warzone Mobile

Another important aspect of the Season 3 update is that Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile is now getting full integration with the rest of the games, following its release in late March. With it, players can link the mobile game and share level progress across titles. With the arrival of Season 3, Warzone Mobile will give players access to free new Base Weapons and eight Aftermarket Parts.

They will also be able to unlock new Operators and get over 100 pieces of content with BlackCell and the game’s Battle . The mobile title will see the addition of the map Rust with Season 3, as well as two new battle royale modes: Plunder and Buy Back. Warzone Mobile will have several events following the release of Season 3 of Call of Duty: Warzone, including a few that grant free Operator Skins and Weapon Blueprints.

When it comes to Operators, players will get three, Banshee, Hush, and Snoop Dogg, via the Battle , as well as Stasis via the BlackCell mode. Call of Duty: Warzone’s update also brings in new Perks, such as the ones mentioned for the Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer updates.

There will be a few events following the release of Season 3, including Vortex: Vi.Rus’ Mainframe and, further down the season, Call of Duty Endowment: U Assist Veterans. Another event is a crossover with Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, which will see the addition of four new skins, based on the legendary kaiju franchise. Later, on April 20, Warzone will see the release of Cheech & Chong skins through an event called Blaze Up.
