Ever since its release in November 2022, Call of Duty Warzone 2 has become a very interesting title to look at. While its battle royale format has mostly received mixed reactions, the DMZ mode is a completely different story altogether. This new content has actually ended up attracting players’ attention. It might be due to the fact that they have never experienced something like this in the history of Activision’s franchise.

Simply put, many fans have gradually started to like it in the last two months. And now, DMZ is set to go through a big transition. It will happen in the upcoming Season 2 for Call of Duty Warzone 2. Few days back, a blog from the makers revealed several key changes coming to the game. Not to mention that the extraction-based mode will also get major refinements. However, it looks like the fans are not ready for the mode to have a refresh, especially when it comes to the faction missions and their overall progression.

In case anyone is not aware, CoD’s DMZ is highly inspired by the already popular Escape From Tarkov. Interestingly, the latter has got a format where it keeps wiping out player progression and resets it completely. Now this format will also be introduced to Warzone 2 when Season arrives next month.

Everything will be reset, while going back to the very beginning. Users will have to once again finish all the quests in order to gather their Contrabend weapons and keys.
