Warzone Nuke Event Is Finally Starting With An Explosive Easter Egg
In the famous words of the Vengaboys sprinkled with a little bit of journalistic spice and topped with a Call of Duty sauce,
Boom boom boom boom
Verdansk will face its doom
Let's watch the nuke together
As it will be destroyed forever
Boom boom boom boom.
Verdansk is staring down the barrel of a weapon so deadly that the landscape is set to be destroyed forever. With a pending nuke that has been teased since the bunkers opened in Modern Warfare Season 4, it looks like the end is nigh, and Black Ops Cold War Season 3 will have us jetting off into a new location.
With hints spanning over a couple of seasons, Treyarch has been ramping up the hype, especially with the latest season dropping huge missiles into a variety of new locations. An arms race typical of the Cold War looks set to backfire, and end life on Verdansk as we know it.
The latest hint seems to showcase the beginning of the end for the Warzone map, physically blowing up a small-scaled replica.
Reddit user "Mundoschristmas" found that the hut located just outside of TV Station (the same hut that was first opened during the Easter Egg that announced Black Ops Cold War) showcases a small scale map of Verdansk pinned to one of the walls. Upon aiming down sights just in front of the map, explosions erupt and cover the wall in thick black ash, followed by a cloud of Nova 6 gas encapsulating the room.

Now, we may not be detectives by trade, but this has to be the most blatantly obvious hint that a big boom is looming over Warzone.
The Ural Mountains that feature in Outbreak and Black Ops Cold War are heavily rumoured to be coming into play in the near future, although some are hoping that Activision takes a leaf out of Epic Games' playbook and allow us to play in the wreckage of a post-apocalyptic Verdansk.
Either way, prepare yourselves, as the game is about to change forever.
