Activision Suffered A Data Breach That May Have Revealed The Roadmap For Warzone 2 And Modern Warfare 2

The second season of Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 has already begun, bringing the most significant content update for both games to date. The new Ashika Island Resurgence map and several gameplay tweaks were added to the battle royale, while Ranked Play and many other updates were added to Modern Warfare 2.
But there is still much more to come since Season 2 Reloaded and Season 3 are already in the works.

Players are always curious to hear what the creators have in store, and now, thanks to a leak, it may be possible to predict what will happen in 2023. A popular website well-known for sharing leaked documents, vx-underground, has claimed that Activision employees experienced a phishing attack in December last year.

The hackers exfiltrated sensitive workplace documents and scheduled to-be-released content dating to November 17th, 2023. Vx-underground shared in a tweet a spreadsheet containing possible dates and content for Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 Season 3 and beyond.

Season 3 will reportedly include three new weapons, three multiplayer maps, a larger battle map, and two new Operators, one of whom will be “licensed.” However, this information is likely already out of date; according to the spreadsheet, Season 3 will begin on March 15th, but the countdown timer for the new Season 2 Battle Pass released last week contradicts that as it goes until April 12th.

After the news of the breach broke, Insider Gaming revealed that they had been sent the entire contents of the data breach and had been able to verify its legitimacy. See the below list for a quick overview of the leak:

  • Season 3: March 15th – May 15th
  • Season 4: May 15th – July 16th
  • Season 5: July 17th – September 14th
  • Season 6: September 15th – November 8th
  • Seven ‘Core Maps’, some of which will likely contain rehashes of older maps that we’re expecting.
  • ‘Haunting of Saba’ event for Halloween.
  • One ‘Licensed’ operator every season, which means a collaboration or crossover.
  • More Gunfights, Spec Ops missions, Raids, and Tier 1 Events starting from Season Three.
  • One ‘Small Map’ arriving with Season 4, which should be a similar experience to Shipment.
  • At least another 240 bundles (70 per season).
