Call of Duty is a series that is currently in a turbulent state. It seems that the recent iteration of the series, Call of Duty Vanguard, just can’t catch a break. After the overwhelming criticism with regard to bugs, the title will see a delay in the arrival of its second season. The second season is a part of the game’s live service, while the first season of the title saw the release of the brand new map, Warzone Caldera.

Call of Duty Vanguard still unstable with Season 2 delayed

The franchise’s official Twitter account posted a tweet informing fans and players about this sad news.

While there was no official announcement regarding Season 2, nor a release date revealed, the community was expecting this season to drop soon. The Season One Battle Pass expires on February 1. Typically, Call of Duty titles launches the next season a day after the Battle Pass ends. If Call of Duty Vanguard followed suit, the next season should’ve ideally dropped by February 2. However, as the Tweet says, this is not the case.

Citing that more time is required to work on the game, the developers are pushing back the release date of Season 2 of Vanguard.

While fans are dismayed, this might actually be healthy for the title. Time and again Activision has been criticized for its annual releases. This leaves games in an unfinished and unpolished state. However, with the Season getting delayed, this might indicate that the developers are truly passionate and committed to offering something flawless.

However, it is interesting to know that Season 1 was delayed as well. However, as the community has quietly witnessed, the Season was completely broken. Flame weapons were ridiculously overpowered, Battle Pass skins were invisible, and crashes on consoles are common.

Only time will tell whether Sledgehammer Games will be rewarded by this delay.
