Rumours continue to arrive about Warzone,the noisy Battle Royale mode of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare; After last week's rumor,now the VGC site has received from sources close to the development of the game the tip that this mode will support 200 contemporary players,arriving - except last-minute postponements - at the beginning of March as a free update of the Infinity Ward title but not only.

The site is in fact talking about the already chatty stand-alone version Free-to-Play, downloadable for free by anyone to be able to play this mode without any initial expense. According to VGC sources, this free version will have a unified progress system with that found in the paid game, with aesthetic breakouts and benefits for MW Battle Pass buyers.

Activision's intention is, with this free version, to attract all those players currently engaged in free titles such as Fortnite and APEX Legends to the CoD ecosystem; Let's not forget, however, that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare fully supports cross-play across platforms, so a free And this range of Battle Royale mode, with a pool of users shared between Xbox, PlayStation and PC could be a disruptive event in the gaming world.

These are the main features of Warzone reported by the site:

• Available in both Modern Warfare and as a separate free download
• Expected release in a few weeks, maybe March 10
• Support for up to 200 players per match
• Team game system
• Includes a 'Ping' communication system similar to that of APEX Legends
• The map will be twice the size of CoD's Blackout: Black Ops 4
• It will include an in-game currency system, the "Plunder", which can be earned in-game and can then be used to acquire equipment throughout the game. Slain players will leave their Plunder on the ground and others will be able to retrieve it. To avoid this it will be possible to deposit the Plunder in special banks, but this will alert all players in the surroundings about our presence
• Once killed, players will be sent to a "Gulag" where they will have to fight 1-on-1 fights with other defeated players to have a chance to repel
• Players will be able to take their teammates to ambulances, but it's unclear if this is to send them to the Gulag or is simply a quick healing system

VGC says Activision is preparing to begin its marketing campaign for Warzonesoon, with some influencers and journalists invited to try out the game later in the week. So there should be an official announcement soon.
