Warzone players know the drill by now: every time a new Call of Duty drops, Warzone gets a big shakeup. With Black Ops 7 launching later this year, that means fresh mechanics, new weapons, and yeah, a brand-new map. But according to reliable insider leaks, the next Resurgence map might not be what fans are hoping for.
Warzone’s Season 1 Might Bring a New Resurgence Map
So far, Activision hasn’t spilled much about what’s coming in Season 1 of Black Ops 7, but insiders are already talking. Trusted leaker TheGhostOfHope claims the first major Warzone update will drop a new Resurgence map around late 2025.
The catch? It’s reportedly an extended version of Liberty Falls, one of the core Zombies maps from Black Ops 6.
Yep—that means instead of building something brand-new, Warzone’s Resurgence experience could be heavily based on recycled Zombie locations.
Liberty Falls, Shattered Veil, and More Zombies Maps?
The leaks don’t stop there. Another insider, RealityUK, added fuel to the fire by saying it’s not just Liberty Falls making the jump into Resurgence. According to him, the map will actually fuse together multiple Black Ops 6 Zombies locations—including Shattered Veil and “other places.”
Sounds experimental, sure. But the community reaction? Not so kind.
Fans are already roasting the idea online, calling it “lazy” map design. Many players feel like Activision and Treyarch are trying to repackage old Zombie maps instead of giving Warzone fans their own dedicated playground. After all, nothing has hit the same high as Rebirth Island or Verdansk, and every new experiment since has felt like a step down.

What This Means for Black Ops 7 x Warzone
Here’s the thing—it’s not all doom and gloom. Black Ops 7 comes with new movement mechanics like wall-jumping and an evolved omnimovement system, and those changes are expected to carry over into Warzone. So even if the map itself is recycled, the gameplay might feel fresh thanks to the new mobility tools.
Still, when you’ve got a player base that’s been begging for a true Rebirth successor, reusing Zombies maps feels like a risky move.
When Fans Will Know More
Right now everything’s just leaks and speculation. But we won’t have to wait too long for answers. Activision has confirmed that its big COD Next event is locked in for September 30, 2025. That’s where Treyarch and Raven will finally unveil official Warzone updates, maps, and integration plans.
If you’re more into Multiplayer than Battle Royale, good news: the Black Ops 7 open beta kicks off October 2 for pre-orders and October 5 for everyone else.
Thoughts
If the leaks are true, the next Warzone Resurgence map could be a mash-up of Zombies maps like Liberty Falls and Shattered Veil. Some players might appreciate the crossover, but most fans are already bracing for disappointment.
At the end of the day, Warzone desperately needs another Rebirth-level banger to keep the Resurgence crowd hooked. Whether Zombies locations can fill those shoes? That’s the big question heading into Season 1.
FAQ’s
According to credible insiders, the new map will debut in Season 1 of Black Ops 7 and may be an extended version of the Zombies map Liberty Falls, with other Zombies maps like Shattered Veil mixed in.
Many players feel using old Zombies maps for a Resurgence arena is “lazy” and doesn’t live up to the iconic designs of Rebirth Island or Verdansk.
Most likely, yes. Features like wall-jumping and enhanced omnimovement are expected to carry over into Warzone with the Season 1 update.
Probably at COD Next on September 30, 2025, which is Activision’s big yearly reveal event.
