A tweet from the game’s developers, Treyarch, suggests the Outbreak Zone will get even bigger. So, it is likely that as time progresses, the developers will continue to work on this game mode and add new maps. A lot of new Outbreak maps such as Golova were part of the next Warzone map tease, but along with it, FireTeam maps such as Alpine and Ruka were also present.

The tweet also added a GIF of the Outbreak portal spreading to a map that looked similar to the Sanatorium FireTeam map. So this was the long-awaited revelation that many more FireTeam maps will join Outbreak.

But with no teaser suggesting the map’s release, fans believe the map might not launch during Season 2 Reloaded. So, it may be disheartening for fans to know that the next big Survival map might not even arrive till Season 3.

But some fans are optimistic about the DLC launching a few days after the Reloaded update. Fans might remember the launch of Firebase Z is to be a few weeks after the release of the Season 1 Reloaded update. So, there’s a possibility that the developers might show the new DLC after the update’s launch, just as they did with Firebase Z.
