Black Ops Blackout mode could be incorporated into Warzone as part of Call of Dutys 2020 plans

Call of Duty: Warzone (opens in new tab) will apparently incorporate elements of Black Ops’ Blackout battle royale mode with the release of Black Ops Cold War (opens in new tab)  later this year.

Games reporter Jeffrey Grub (opens in new tab) told Twitter that “Blackout is going to return in some form with Black Ops this year”, followed up by industry insider Tom Henderson clarifying that this won’t replace Warzone itself, but instead become part of it. 

A lot of people are worried about this, but what I’ve been told is that they will not be separate entities. Their won’t be IWs Warzone and Treyarchs Blackout. They’ll be the same BR… Just bits of both incorporated (maybe bits of the Blackout map?) https://t.co/gwqrmOBk6DJune 10, 2020
