The biggest addition for MW3 Warzone in season one is the new map, Urzikstan.

Urzikstan replaced Al Mazrah as the default Warzone map, much like how Caldera replaced Verdansk in the original game. Other maps will include Vondel and Ashika Island, and eventually, in 2024, both Rebirth Island and Fortune’s Keep will return.

Warzone will also take on all of MW3’s changes to movement when Urzikstan and season one go live. This means movement will be faster overall and include MW3’s changes like slide canceling, the new mantle system, Tactical Stance, and a Stim that will increase movement speed for several seconds.
