Since its announcement, the Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War title has managed to impress the fans. Its graphics, the changes in its multiplayer mode, and the additional changes to the game’s mechanics look promising. Although, there is still a lot more we don’t know about the game’s transition into Warzone, considering the mechanics will differ completely from Modern Warfare.

Then there is also the obvious question, “Will there be a new map Black Ops map in Warzone?”

Rumors suggest that a map is in the works for the same and this makes sense, too. A new title should at least get its own map if it is to be a part of a pre-existing game. But the nature of it remains a mystery, which is where this Reddit discussion comes in.

Possibility of Blackout map in Call of Duty Warzone?

A lot of the fans in the comments section argued that Blackout was still a much better BR game than Warzone. Even though these comments may stem from the hackers/cheaters problem, bug issues, etc in Warzone, it still makes a strong argument.

Neither Warzone nor Blackout is perfect in any way, but the Blackout map in Warzone would be a pleasant surprise. The developers will have to put in a lot of work to enhance the graphics. Nevertheless, adding the classic Nuketown Island and Alcatraz locations would be an absolute dream.

Fans will have to wait for an official announcement on the same, however. The Black Ops Cold War title launches on November 13 and the Beta drops on October 8 for PS4 users.
