Activision confirms delay for MW2 & Warzone 2: Season 2

Activision has now confirmed the rumors, announcing a delay for Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 Season 2.

Warzone 2 is in the midst of a player count decline, and content creators have threatened to jump ship if conditions don’t improve.

Community members have particularly raised issues with the battle royale sequel’s new looting system, Gulag, and Loadout Drop prices. Only compounding concerns, a datamine on January 17 revealed a potential delay for MW2 and WZ2’s second season. It’s already been over two months since Season 1 began, and the player base’s patience is waning thin.

The development team confirmed the community’s worst fears by announcing a delay for Season 2 but reassured players by teasing major changes.

WZ2 and MW2 Season 2 delayed

Activision issued an official statement on January 18, delaying Season 2 until February 15, meaning MW2 and WZ2’s first season will be roughly three months long.

The statement finally confirms the addition of a brand-new small-scale Resurgence map, Ranked Play, and new multiplayer maps and weapons.
