Throughout Call of Duty history, the shooter franchise has featured a number of iconic maps ranging from the chaos of Shipment to Warzone's iconic Verdansk. With attention turning towards the launch of Modern Warfare 3, many are asking the same question: Is Verdansk returning in Modern Warfare 3?

Verdansk made its debut in the first iteration of Warzone and since then, players have wanted it to return to the battle royale. Instead, it appears the map is returning in a different capacity.

Before we reveal whether Verdansk is returning in Modern Warfare 3? Take a look at our other guides showcasing the rumoured gun list and selection of Perks expected to appear in multiplayer.

Is Verdansk returning in Modern Warfare 3?

Yes, Verdansk is returning in Modern Warfare 3. At the time of writing, we know the map will feature as part of the single-player campaign. During the Makarov reveal trailer, the Verdansk football club's badge appears alongside the prison.

Alongside small snippets of the map, notable leaker 3rbbcod has uploaded a screenshot seemingly showcasing the entirety of Verdansk ablaze with a number of fighter jets flying above.

Is Verdansk returning to Warzone?

It's unclear if Verdansk is making its return to Warzone. However, there's still plenty of time for Raven Software and Sledgehammer Games to reveal their plans for the next chapter of the battle royale.

At the moment, rumours suggest a map set in the Las Almas region is expected to replace Al Mazrah. As always, take them with a pinch of salt until official confirmation emerges.
