Following the launch of Warzone 2, it’s no surprise that attention has mostly turned to the new era of CoD’s battle royale – from both a player and developer point of view.
However, either due to thecontroversial features added to the sequelor nostalgia for the original’s gameplay and map, there are some players dying to return toCaldera. But can you still play Warzone 1 now that the follow-up is here?
Here’s everything you need to know about accessing the original Warzone.
Good news for fans of the classic CoD BR,Warzone 1 is still playableunder the new guise of ‘Warzone Caldera.’Warzone 1 was temporarily offline when the sequel first arrived, but around a week later the servers came back and the rebrand as Warzone Caldera was complete.
However, the map, weapons, and overall gameplay remain untouched, so the core experience you know and love is still there.
If you are looking to switch Al Mazrah for Caldera, it’s worth keeping in mind that Warzone 1 is no longer the main priority of the developers. This means that glitches, weapon imbalances, and other issues may take longer to be addressed, if at all.
How to play Warzone Caldera
It’s unclear at the moment if this is a bug that Activision Blizzard intends to address in the future, or an intentional decision to encourage new players to hop straight into Warzone 2.
