Activision has delayed the launch of Call of Duty: Warzone’s new map by a week amid the ongoing turmoil at the under-fire publisher.
A tweet issued last night from the official Call of Duty account signalled that Season 1 of Sledgehammer’s Call of Duty: Vanguard and the Caldera map for battle royale Warzone now release on 8th December. Vanguard owners get 24-hour first-play access to the Pacific-set map, with open access kicking off a day later, on 9th December.
Caldera was meant to launch on Thursday, 2nd December 2nd for Call of Duty: Vanguard players and a day later for everyone else.

The news comes as Activision faces increasing pressure to oust CEO Bobby Kotick.
More than 1700 employees from Activision Blizzard have now signed a petition calling for Bobby Kotick to resign following this week’s bombshell report into what the company CEO knew of harassment inside the company – and what he allegedly failed to fully act upon.
