Shortly after confirming that Season 2 of Call of Duty: Warzone 2 will be delayed by two weeks, the game's developers, Infinity Ward, have announced a change players are desperate for. The return of the 1v1 Gulag mode will surely sway some opinions, considering most of the mixed reception to the game was a result of the issues players faced in this game mode.
It's unclear if the current 2v2 Gulag format is getting downsized or if the 1v1 mode will be added back as a separate queue. Either way, this means that Warzone 2 players won't have to endure Al Mazarh's Gulag and its flawed format anymore. The additional threat of the minigun-wielding "Jailer" NPC opponent introduced a new dimension to gameplay, but this meant players faced issues after being teamed up with random teammates who AFK, troll, or don't communicate, and undermined the competitive integrity of the game mode.
More clarification should follow in the next week's developer blog they've promised to release, going over all of the changes scheduled with the Season 2 update. The update, which was initially set for February 1, has been postponed for another 2 weeks, enabling the developing team at Raven Software to deliver a more complete product.
