Call of Duty: Vanguard will get Warzone integration with the new Caldera map on December 8, but Raven Software has a few limited-time events for players to bid farewell to Verdansk. Following the ongoing Operation: Flashback event, Secrets of the Pacific begins on November 24. The launch of this event will likely follow Call of Duty’s normal update schedule with a 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET start time.
In a Call of Duty blog, Secrets of the Pacific is described as an event that will grant players with vital information on Caldera and its various points of interest prior to the December launch. Little other details are known about this upcoming event, but the secrets are apparently uncovered by completing challenges across both Vanguard and Warzone. Each game will have its own set of tasks and rewards for completing them, one of which Activision describes as acquiring and protecting Pacific artifacts while fighting to survive in Verdansk.
It’s possible Secrets of the Pacific will work similarly to past events like the Haunting and the Numbers event, which offered weapons and cosmetic items for completing set objectives. However, no rewards have been mentioned by Activision. We’ll be updating this information as more details surface about the Secrets of the Pacific and any exclusive rewards that might be included.
One final event is scheduled for players to say farewell to Warzone’s original map. From November 30 until the preseason’s end, Warzone will feature the Last Hours of Verdansk, which is vaguely described as watching to “see what happens to Verdansk before Warzone goes dark to prepare for Caldera.” Activision also says to “expect a spectacular and fitting end to your time in Verdansk as we say farewell to the Kastovian city… forever?”
For more details on what to expect with the new Caldera map and Vanguard integration, here is everything we know about Warzone Pacific and Vanguard’s Season 1 update on December 8. Leakers are already revealing what could be promotional art for Season 1, including potential new operators and weapons.
This Call of Duty content is scheduled to continue as Activision Blizzard faces lawsuits and other investigations related to alleged sexual harassment and discrimination against women. A Wall Street Journal report claims that Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick knew of sexual misconduct at the company, including instances of sexual assault and rape. Most recently, Kotick reportedly said he will consider stepping down from Activision Blizzard if issues aren’t fixed quickly.
