Tom Henderson has been a fixture for years when it comes to leaks about upcoming shooters. The journalist and insider has now published a drawing that is supposed to show the new map of Call of Duty: Warzone 2.
This is not official information. Although Tom Henderson has made a name for himself as well-connected and well-informed in the past, you should still approach the information with a dose of skepticism.
This is what the game world of CoD Warzone 2 should look like
We can’t offer you a picture here because it wasn’t shared publicly by the creator himself. You can find the hand-drawn map at the portal tryhardguides.com
Our overview summarizes what else is already known about Warzone 2 (officially and unofficially):

All information about the new Battle Royale
But of course we can talk about what the picture should show:
- You can see a game world from a bird’s eye view, which would definitely pass as a Battle Royale map from the layout.
- About 70 percent of the image consists of land area, to the south the map flows into the sea. A river meanders across the landscape. Henderson claims that the large proportion of water is due to a new swimming mechanic in CoD Warzone 2.
- Considering named locations like Oasis, Oilfield and Hydro Station, the new Warzone 2 map could be set in a desert. Also listed are caves, a quarry, a mountain, an airport, a seaport, a fishing village, and a large city, among others. In addition, there seems to be a kind of fortress right on the coast.
- A long track runs through the game world as a closed circle, which according to Henderson should indicate a railway line. The predecessor Warzone already had a trait that helped determine the gameplay.
Meanwhile, quite strange things happened recently with the predecessor Warzone:

A map for Warzone 2 and DMZ?
According to various leaks, Warzone 2 should share the game world with the new DMZ mode, which should work like a kind of Hunt Showdown or Escape from Tarkov:

Everything we already know
Tom Henderson further explained that Demilitarized Zone should share the map with Warzone 2, but that smaller versions of the allegedly very large game world should be used in the individual DMZ rounds.
