Activision and its studios have major plans for Season 4 in Call of Duty Vanguard and Warzone, bringing in exciting new content. As it happens, Warzone and Vanguard are both getting a brand new map of the name ‘Fortune’s Keep’. Alongside that, Vanguard will receive an all-new extensive, round-based Shi No Numa experience that fans have been longing for.
Previously, fans of CoD Zombies weren’t thrilled with the mediocre experience that came with Der Anfang. It was a dedicated zombie mode but lacked the ability to reproduce the goodness of classic CoD Zombie games. In fact, fans, at one point, wanted Treyarch to focus on Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War’s Outbreak instead.
