One way thatCall of Duty: Warzonehas been able to stand out from the rest of the battle royale games on the market is thanks to its unique Gulag system. In many battle royale games, dying means being completely out of the game, butCall of Duty: Warzone’s Gulag made it so players could earn their way back into a match by defeating an opponent in 1v1 combat. This became one of the game’s most popular features, though today’s Gulag looks much different than the original one.
AsCall of Duty: Warzonehas evolved, so too has its Gulag. There have been a variety of Gulags over the past year, including one based on Nuketown and another Gulag based onBlack Ops 2map Hijacked. Now it seems that theCall of Duty: WarzoneGulag is set to get yet another makeover, as Activision has confirmed that the upcoming Season 5 of the game will bring with it a brand new look for the Gulag.

OnceCall of Duty: WarzoneSeason 5 starts on August 12, players will notice that the Gulag now resembles theCall of Duty: Black Ops 2map Rush. Rush is a paintball arena that was just added toCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warmultiplayer with the Season 4 Reloaded update last month. Activision encourages those that want to practice for the newCall of Duty: WarzoneGulag to jump into Rush matches inBlack Ops Cold War.
The latest iteration ofCall of Duty: Warzone’s Gulag has not been the most popular, so it seems safe to say that many fans will be happy to see Rush added instead. Rush has consistently been a popular map, and there’s no reason to think that it won’t be popular as the Gulag as well. Then again, there could be unforeseen issues with Rush inCall of Duty: Warzone, and the map could also cause a number of newGulag glitchesas well.
While there are likely manyCall of Duty: Warzonefans who will be happy with Rush being the new Gulag, others are still calling for the return of the original Gulag. TheoriginalCall of Duty: WarzoneGulagseems to have been the most popular version so far, and so fans have repeatedly expressed their discontent online that it was removed. Whether or not Activision ever brings it back to remains to be seen, but it seems highly unlikely at this point.
After all, there are rumors that abrand newCall of Duty: Warzonemapis on the horizon, one that will replace Verdansk and embrace a World War 2 theme to matchCall of Duty 2021. These rumors haven’t been verified but with theCall of Duty 2021reveal right around the corner, fans should have their answers sooner rather than later.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
