Activision announced that Call of Duty: Vanguard will also bring an update to CoD’s free battle-royale mode, Call of Duty: Warzone. Dubbed the Pacific update, this add-on will launch on Dec. 2 alongside Season 1 of Vanguard. Since both Vanguard and Warzone Pacific will be on the same engine, Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific moves the action out of Verdansk and into the Pacific. Included is a Caldera map, featuring an enormous island with a dormant volcano, rocky cliffs, dense jungles, gorgeous beaches, and ruins of a lost civilization. Activision guarantees there will be at least 200 points of interest to explore on this map.
Apart from the usual battle royale, Warzone Pacific will introduce Vanguard Royale, an aerial combat mode where you engage in dogfights using WWII-era planes and take down aircraft with anti-air guns.
According to Sledgehammer Games:
“Post launch, Vanguard together with Warzone will offer a massive calendar of free post-launch content featuring new maps, modes, playlists, limited time events and season events, as well as community celebrations and more.”
The developers have described Call of Duy: Vanguard as “inspired by but not beholden to” real-life events, and that becomes fairly obvious with the Call of Duty: Vanguard Zombie campaign. This zombie experience developed by Treyarch, makers of the original zombie mode for Call of Duty: World at War, is sure to thrill fans who prefer their CoD with a dash of horror.
During the preview, Treyarch introduced an objectives-driven zombie mode with the map “Der Anfang,” which will function as a prequel to the Dark Aether storyline. Operators must go to Stalingrad and thwart Wolfram Von List, who is calling upon the power of Kortifex the Deathless to raise the undead. To prevail, you must find and use the four Artifacts of Kortifex’s evil rivals, namely, Saraxis the Shadow, Bellekar the Warlock, Inviktor the Destroyer, and Norticus the Conqueror. Check out the trailer below.
Sadly, Treyarch stated that there won’t be a Main Quest attached to the Zombies mode at launch. There is no time window as to when the Quest will happen, only that it’s scheduled for after Season 1. According to Treyarch: “Players will also encounter some other surprise elements later in Season One that will set the stage for our upcoming Main Quest.”
