Something else fueling theModern WarfareMarch 3 or March 10 Warzone release date theory is a recent development in the game itself. Infinity Ward has updated the “classified” section in game to say “TRANSMISSION INCOMING.” This has led many fans to believe that anofficialModern WarfareWarzone battle royale release dateis imminent.
Something else that may point to theModern WarfareWarzone battle royale release date is a poster on thePiccadilly map. Twitter account Call of Duty Warzone News noticed that the poster is advertising a fictional movie calledWar Beastthat has a March 3 release date. It’s entirely possible that this is just a coincidence, but it’s also possible that this is a deliberate tease on the part of Infinity Ward. However, this poster has been inModern Warfaresince launch, likely before Infinity Ward had the Warzone battle royale release date nailed down, so fans shouldn’t hold their breath for a March 3 release.
Based on the leaks and other evidence, it seems like the most likely scenario is that theModern WarfareWarzone battle royale mode release date is Tuesday, March 10. However, it’s possible that a completely different release date is planned instead, so fans should keep their expectations in check.
