Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Launch Maps Leave Its Seasons With a Big Void to Fill
There were high hopes for the plentiful multiplayer launch maps of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, but they leave a lot of work for future seasons to do.
Recently, Call of Duty news outlet Charlie INTEL pointed out in a tweet that players discovered that by entering spectating mode in Theater Mode on the multiplayer map “Lowtown,” they could fly out of bounds and explore what appears to be the Avalon map. Fans have taken advantage of this to examine various points of interest (POIs), including familiar locations like Firing Range from Black Ops 1 and Hacienda from Black Ops 4, as well as the Black Ops 6 map Skyline.
Reddit user “Dull-Caterpillar3153” created a detailed map of Avalon, assigning names to each location based on their appearance or resemblance to previous multiplayer maps. While the discovered version lacks the detailed textures expected in a final release, it provides significant insight into the map’s scale and layout. Some players have conducted full fly-throughs of the area, noting its expansive size, numerous large POIs, and substantial water regions that could influence gameplay dynamics in future CoD Warzone matches.
Fans Theorize Timing of Warzone’s Major Map Updates
The discovery of the Avalon map has garnered mixed reactions within the Call of Duty community, particularly among players eager for the return of the classic Verdansk map in Warzone. Verdansk holds a nostalgic place for many fans, and while there have been reports that the original map might make a comeback in early 2025, the focus on Avalon raises questions about those plans. Some players worry that the development of a new map could delay or even replace the anticipated return of Verdansk, shifting the game’s trajectory away from what longtime fans have been asking for.
Some players speculate that Avalon could be introduced as a non-ranked play map in Season 1 or perhaps in Season 2, allowing Verdansk to make a comeback in the meantime. Overall, the timing of these major map releases will be crucial in meeting player expectations and maintaining engagement within the Warzone community.
