When Warzone Ranked Play Resurgence coming back?

Resurgence Ranked Play was Warzone with the Black Ops 6 integration, but it’s coming back to the CoD’s battle royale soon.

Ranked Play has been hugely successful in Warzone, despite a prominent hacking situation at the top end of the ranks. First arriving on Al Mazrah with MW2, it then shifted to Resurgence maps during MW3’s lifecycle but was removed ahead of Black Ops 6.

Battle Royale Ranked came to Verdansk with Season 3 Reloaded, and now, both Resurgence and BR will exist alongside each other for the first time.

Warzone Ranked Play return date

Warzone Ranked Play returned on Thursday, August 7, 2025, a few hours after Season 5 went live. It was initially offline while the devs rolled out the new update, but they shared a post not long after confirming that it’s back.

It’s not uncommon for the mode to disappear when new seasons roll around, as any new features or changes are added. But, for now at least, you should be free to play Ranked with no issues.

This could easily change, though, as we’ve seen it taken offline mid-season in the past, so be sure to check back here for the latest updates.

Activision

Verdansk and Rebirth Island will be around for the foreseeable future, but we’ll need to see what Black Ops 7 brings to Warzone towards the end of the year.

Many expect Avalon to be the pipeline, as it features in BO7’s campaign and many of BO6’s maps take place there, with private matches letting you explore the whole area.

In the meantime, you can check out the best guns in Warzone, including the Krig C and LC10, so you’ll know what to level up ahead of the mode’s return.
