Infinity Ward has confirmed that one of Call of Duty: Warzone 2’s less popular changes is getting reverted in the upcoming Season 2 update. Al Mazarh is downsizing the Gulag for a more traditional Warzone 1 experience.
The battle royale’s sequel originally overhauled the Gulag from a 1v1 arena to a larger 2v2 fight, which also included the additional threat of the minigun wielding “Jailer” NPC opponent. Al Mazarh’s Gulag has been poorly received for forcing players to team up with another random player, as the matchups are often randoms, AFK players, or pairings who lack any communication.
