Will there be a Warzone 3?

As Modern Warfare 2’s lifecycle nears its conclusion and the release of Modern Warfare 3 draws closer, many players are wondering if the upcoming game will introduce Warzone 3 and deliver seamless integration between both games, as seen in previous titles.

From the release of Modern Warfare 2019 through to the latest installment, Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty: Warzone has evolved by incorporating a lot of content from premium titles on an annual basis through integration.

Following Warzone 2’s debut in November 2022, players expect regular updates for the free-to-play title, including new content and a title change to align with the yearly franchise release. This has led many to question whether there will be a Warzone 3.

Here’s everything we know so far about the future of Warzone following the launch of Modern Warfare 3.

Is Warzone 3 in development?

No, Activision haven’t shared any plans or development for a Warzone 3 at the moment. However, Call of Duty has officially confirmed players can expect to learn details about the next chapter of Warzone for 2023 during the Call of Duty Next event on October 5.

Although Warzone 2 officially renamed itself alongside Modern Warfare 2 at its launch, earlier in June of this year, coinciding with the launch of Season 4 of Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone, Activision decided to drop the number two (originally referred to as “2.0”) from Warzone’s title.

In addition to this modification, the original iteration of Warzone also underwent a name change to “Warzone Caldera,” and has been officially confirmed to be shuttered this month, on September 21.

Despite “Warzone 3” being a plausible name in line with Modern Warfare 3, the permanent closure of the original game and recent name changes suggest that the next version coming alongside MW3 might not feature a numerical designation, and instead, retain its current name.

Keep in mind that Activision haven’t announced any details about the next chapter of the popular free-to-play title, but we will be sure to update this piece if they release any new information.
