Classic Hijacked Map Is Reportedly Coming To Black Ops Cold War
Avid Call of Duty fans will have noticed that Treyarch has been loading their canons with blasts full of nostalgia for old-school fans during this Black Ops Cold War era. The developers have been seeding in classic maps from their past on a seasonal basis, alongside a wealth of original content that has gone down just as well.
With Season 3 passing over its halfway mark, eyes have begun to edge on what's coming next, especially with Standoff whetting the nostalgia-thirsty fans' appetites.
Treyarch's wealth of original maps make for an exciting pool to choose from, but it appears that a timeless classic is coming back, having already been remastered in previous instalments.
Hijacked is set to land in Black Ops Cold War Season 4.
Black Ops Cold War Hijacked Remaster
According to renowned leaker "TheMW2Ghost", Hijacked will be remastered for Black Ops Cold War in Season 4. It will land in its original form rather than the futuristic airship seen in Black Ops 3 (Skyjacked), with its anchor settled in international waters off the coast of the Netherlands and France.
Will there be any more remastered maps in Black Ops Cold War?
According to TheMW2Ghost, there is likely to be at least one further remastered map making its way into Black Ops Cold War, staying true to their one per season structure. Having added Raid in Season 1, Express in Season 2, Standoff in Season 3, and soon to be Hijacked in Season 4, Season 5 will almost certainly add another Treyarch redesign according to the leaker.
As to which map, it is yet to be known. The developers have been keen to keep the maps limited to Black Ops 2 so far, however, many have been calling for some of their older classics to land. With the likes of Launch and Radiation ticking most of the boxes in terms of era, gameplay, and design, that would suit BOCW, many have hedged their bets on these being added in the future. Black Ops 1's Grid has also been called for by fans, although should Treyarch stay true to their BO2 remasters, we may see something like Meltdown, Yemen, or yet another version of Slums.
Season 4 is set to launch on June 16th, with Hijacked most likely coming as of launch or in the mid-season event in July.
