The latest mid-season update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3is on the way and it’s set to bring back one of the best maps from 2021’s entry, Call of Duty: Vanguard.
Revealed in a new post on the official Call of Duty blog, the Season 2 Reloaded update will add a remastered version of Das Haus — an intense 6v6 map first introduced in Vanguard.

Like previous mid-season updates, it's shaping up to be a pretty large content drop and seems like the perfect way to set the stage for when Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile finally
