He then went one step further to say that Modern Warfare 2 Remastered will come THIS YEAR.
New Map Posted In r/CODWarzone 15:30 GMT
A new image of the full Modern Warfare Battle Royale map has been posted by Reddit user u/Senescallo into the CODWarzone Subreddit!

Dr. Disrespect Leaks Release Date? - 10.25 GMT
Dr. Disrespect may have leaked the BR date on his stream.
Apex Legends star Kraftyy asked when we may see the wingsuit make a return.
“I might bust it out next week", he replied "Just don’t forget this conversation gentlemen. Next week you’re going to see the wingsuit.”
This sent the chat into a frenzy thinking that he was referring to Warzone.
He clarified - “No, it’s not Warzone. No, it’s not confirmed. Jesus. That’s not what I’m saying, I didn’t mean that.”
Was it a slip of the tongue or an innocent joke? You can watch it here.
Warzone And Multiplayer Ranked Tied Together? - 4th March 10:20 GMT
According to Notorious leaker TheGamingRevolution, your "Warzone player rank is unified with your rank in Modern Warfare".
A strange decision as it meant to be a F2P standalone title and doesn't require the Modern Warfare game to play.
Have we gotten the rumours about it being F2P wrong? Is this outdated news? Or is it just for Modern Warfare players?

Casual Friendly? - 12:00 GMT
Notorious Call of Duty leaker TheGamingRevolution is at it again, now hinting that automatic health regeneration is coming to the Battle Royale - a strange addition as no battle royale offers this and there are health packs within the game. Perhaps you only regenerate a certain amount of health or it could be a perk?
He also went on to say that the game, despite having an element of tactics, it is also quite casual friendly. This was reinforced by mentions that you can see gunfire on the mini-map, UAV swipes for the final circle as well as objective markers when completing bounty challenges/contracts.
He also stated that those that lose the 1v1 Gulag can be bought back into the game by their teammates!
In his most recent video he also listed two new teasers. The first is a Privet Blueprint, that says "Send them to the gulag with the Privet Pistol".
There's also a new gas mask charm.
You can see his new video here.
BR Easter Egg On Bazaar? - 26th February 10:00 GMT
In other news, @BattleRoyaleCOD are convinced that the Bazaar map has come with a new easter egg for the BR mode.

New Battle Royale Twitter Account - 11:15 GMT
A Twitter account just tweeted for the first time, concerning Warzone, and they are followed by a LARGE number of IW devs.
This potentially means that the teaser campaign is beginning, what do the 3 sirens mean? March 3rd? 3 days until content drop? 3 hours? Only time will tell!
Updated Main Menu Message - 25th February 11:00 GMT
After yesterday's update, a new piece of text can be found behind the 'Classified' menu that says "Transmission Incoming".
Although notorious leaker TheGamingRevolution is convinced the mode will launch on the 10th March, we could see an announcement arrive soon!
Gas Ring - 19th February 10:00 GMT
With the Battle Royale apparently not coming until March, there's still more info leaking.
With the "blue ring" of other Battle Royales being replaced by a green gas cloud and referenced in the Season 2 intro cinematic, the game's store has now been updated with bundles discussing a "Toxic Event".
The Hazardous bundle is now in the store for 1,500 COD Points and includes weapon blueprints, a charm, and a Toxic Event emblem that looks an awful lot like what we've seen of the Battle Royale so far.
