Season 3 for Black Ops 6 and Warzone is around the corner, but the release schedule will be different this time. This will probably cause some confusion, especially to those who aren't up to speed or constantly checking the news.

If you are looking forward to dropping back into Verdansk, we have gathered all the information regarding the release time of Season 3 in the battle royale.

What time does Warzone Season 3 start

Season 3 for Warzone is scheduled to begin on Thursday, April 3rd at 9:00 AM PT (5:00 PM UTC). Before that, the game will go through a 24-hour downtime period, where developers will make the necessary preparations before Verdansk returns.

During this downtime period, Black Ops 6 will be free for all players, meaning everyone can enjoy the title and all of its features.

The Season 3 update for Warzone can be downloaded once the downtime is up, allowing players to have everything ready for launch.

Verdansk returns

The biggest addition for this season is the return of Verdansk, the first map available in the original Warzone at launch. Here is the season's official trailer:

The map was built from the ground up, featuring better textures, lighting, and some modifications to certain areas like extra cover between POIs to allow for better rotation. The following video gives us a flyover through the map so you can have a look:
