Call of Duty: Warzone 2 has had a challenging few months. While it is far from dead, some popular streamers are ditching the game and player numbers are slowly falling. However, a brand new season is sure to give Warzone a shot in the arm and pique player interest. And, thankfully, the release date of Warzone 2 Season 3 is right around the corner.
New seasons offer the chance of a fresh start and the opportunity to address lingering issues. That’s exactly what players want right now, in addition to a one-shot sniper rifle of course.
So, what do we know about the launch of Season 3?
Warzone 2 Season 3 release date
Call of Duty: Warzone 2 Season 3 will be released on 12 April 2023. The official Call of Duty and Infinity Ward Twitter accounts have confirmed this date.
It also aligns with the end of the Season 2 battle pass which is due to conclude on 11 April 2023.
FJX Imperium
The FJX Imperium sniper will feature in the upcoming Season 3 battle pass. And yes – the FJX Imperium is the Intervention from 2009’s Modern Warfare 2.
It was revealed during a surprise Season 3 playtest featuring FaZe Dirty. The beloved weapon is sure to be a welcome addition and looks like it could be the one-shot sniper players are desperate for.
Pelayo’s Lighthouse map
In addition to the Intervention (sorry, FJX Imperium) and away from Warzone, a brand new multiplayer map is coming in Season 3.
Pelayo’s Lighthouse is a 6v6 map featuring heavy rain. Curious players can see it for themselves in the clip of FaZe Dirty showing off the FJX Imperium.
