Warzone 2 features a ton of fun content for Call of Duty fans to check out, and the devs have finally revealed the official Season 3 release date for the classic Plunder game mode.

The heartbeat of Warzone 2 is its battle royale mode that sees up to 150 players competing against each other to be the last man standing, but players also have the option to experience everything DMZ has to offer.

Different Call of Duty game modes give players more entertainment, and one mode that has been beloved by players is Plunder. However, with the devs announcing that Warzone 2 Season 3 brings the mode, many players are wondering when Plunder will arrive.

A release date for Plunder has finally been confirmed, so here’s when the fan-favorite mode arrives in Warzone 2.

Warzone 2 Plunder release date

Plunder will be coming to Warzone 2 on Wednesday, April 26, 2023. While the time hasn’t been confirmed yet, updates usually arrive at 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST, and this is also when Modern Warfare 2’s free trial ends.

The devs revealed the official release date via a trailer on April 25 which said: “Get ready to take the money and run. Complete contracts, grab bags of money, take advantage of brand new public events, and hunt down cash-leaders in a race to earn the largest stash.”

Previously, it was officially confirmed to arrive in Season 3 by the developers in the Warzone 2 Season 3 trailer.

Players had been wondering when the fan-favorite game mode would be arriving after it was confirmed for Warzone 2 in an announcement back in February. The devs were careful with their wording and stated that it would arrive in “Season 03 and beyond.”

Due to this wording, many players were expecting to see Plunder arrive with the Warzone 2 Season 3 Reloaded update. Luckily, they won’t have to wait that long to jump into Plunder, following the announcement of its imminent arrival on April 26.

Plunder was added to the first Warzone in March 2020, and in this mode, the goal is to try and loot the land and reach a certain monetary milestone to be declared the victor. If you want to find out more, check out our guide to all of the changes coming to Plunder in Warzone 2.

In Plunder, players enjoy infinite respawns that allow them to immediately hop back into the battle after getting killed. It was a fast way to level up guns and instantly became a fan favorite.
