Call of Duty Warzone celebrated its one-year anniversary on Thursday, March 11. The Battle Royale game was Activision’s second attempt at the genre after launching Blackout. It all started when the company released a prequel to the iconic Modern Warfare series and along with it came Warzone. Although the game currently has issues following its integration with Black Ops Cold War, fans have rallied behind the game and showed their support for what they consider one of the best in the genre.

One of the most integral reasons for any game’s success has to be the community’s support, and no franchise can make a better case for it than Call of Duty. The series has had one of the oldest communities in the modern era. Players have made the franchise what it is right now from the early days, with countless hours of videos being posted on YouTube and Twitch. Content creators such as TimTheTatman and Courage, who have been there from the beginning, had a newfound love with the franchise because of Warzone.
I just want to say… it’s officially been a year since Warzone has come out and I truly think it’s my favorite BR I’ve ever played. It also made me fall in love with Call of Duty again… Hopeful for the future!

One year of Warzone:
Overall, Warzone has been extremely positive for Call of Duty and I'm happy so many people are enjoying it.
It has revived my love for Call of Duty.
With that said, in year two they need to update the map much more consistently and add an anti-cheat.

Others who joined Warzone as part of the game’s Esports circuit also gave it their love. From giving them a steady career and also providing them some enjoyable content, creators around the world have credited Warzone as one of the best Battle Royale games in the world.
So here’s to our first anniversary of Warzone! The best thing that’s happened to me (bar Brittney, of course). Let’s make the next year an even better one.
