Modern Warfare 2 (2022) and Warzone 2 Leaks: DMZ, New Map, Inventory System, & More

It is not a stretch to say this can be the case, given how Tom's sources confirm that the maps above are returning as multiplayer maps in MW2 (2022).

There's allegedly a new loadout obtaining system. You won't have to buy the

loadout as you did in Warzone

. Instead, you will need to complete objectives called "Strongholds" to obtain the loadout. Nero stated objectives can include a multitude of missions such as defusing a bomb, clearing a wave of AI bots, or infiltrating a building.

This can change the pacing of the whole game as there are only a limited number of Strongholds in each match. Once the player captures a Stronghold by completing the given objective, no other players can access it.

There are no major changes in the ground loot, and will continue to provide weapons with 5 attachments as opposed to 8.

Pro perks are making a triumphant return. Not only will they be returning for MW2 (2022) 's multiplayer, but they will also be incorporated in Warzone 2 in some capacity. It would be interesting to see how the pro perks will work in a battle royale setting. This was also confirmed by TheGhostOfHope on Twitter. TheGhostOfHope is a prominent leaker, and has proven himself to be correct multiple times.

If you're new to pro perks, the pro perk is given a name to perks with an additional benefit on top of its base benefit.

We're getting an inventory system instead of a fixed slot system we currently have. The inventory system is said to be similar to PUBG's inventory system where you only have a limited amount of space for you to hold your items. It is not clear whether the killstreaks and other items have their own fixed slot or will they all be considered items for the new inventory system. The majority of the BR games have a space allotted inventory system.

Speaking of inventory, we're also getting an armor satchel system similar to Blackout. In the current Warzone, you already have an armor plate when you spawn in. However, in Warzone 2, you will have to find an armor satchel to be able to equip armor in the first place.

While this is still not confirmed, leakers have claimed that the playtesters experienced no slide canceling mechanic in their game. Keep in mind that this was during the playtesting session, it may very well be added in the final game.

However, it is a possibility that they've removed it for good as it was an unintentional bug that turned into a combat mechanic. It was not even intended to be in the game originally.

One of the highly demanded features will now be available for the players to test out their weapons. Nero claims that the new MW2 (2022) will feature a firing range where players can test out their weapon loadouts. The players will be able to shoot the target and see the damage values. This will help them form their own opinion of the weapons and come up with their own weapon builds without relying on

.

DMZ stands for Demilitarized Zone and will be the third game mode, alongside single-player and multiplayer, that will be introduced in MW2 (2022). Inspired by Escape from Tarkov, DMZ is supposedly going to have the same map as Warzone 2 but a different gameplay style.

Tom Henderson first reported about DMZ back in December of last year.

According to Tom, the game would have been in development for more than 4 years by the time it releases. This was also reported back in December of 2021 in response to a tweet by TheGhostOfHope.

TheGhostOfHope has stated that the DMZ mode will feature a marketplace for players to buy and trade items. In addition, whatever blueprints and skins players earn in DMZ, will be usable in both multiplayer and Warzone 2.

It would be interesting to see how the new changes to Warzone will affect the flow of the game. You can expect a cinematic announcement trailer of MW2 (2022) during the Summer Game Fest on June 8, 2022. We might see the gameplay footage shortly after the announcement trailer.
