The Modern Warfare 3 iteration of Rebirth Island is officially set to release with Warzone Season 3. The MW3 Rebirth Island update is said to take inspiration from Rebirth Reinforced, last seen in 2022. Warzone Season 3 is kicking off with the return of Rebirth Island, just one season after Fortune’s Keep also launched for resurgence. Here’s everything we know about the MWIII Warzone Rebirth Island release date, gameplay preview and more:
UPDATE: REBIRTH RELEASE DATE CONFIRMED
Call of Duty took to Twitter to announce that Rebirth Island is indeed returning with the launch of Modern Warfare 3 Season 3. This took the community by surprise as Fortune’s Keep just returned to Warzone at the launch of Season 2.
A gameplay trailer for Warzone Season 3 is set to highlight the NEW iteration of Rebirth, premiering live at 8am PT, 10am CT and 11am EST on March 26th. April 3rd is not only the kickoff for Season 3, but is being referred to as #RebirthDay
REBIRTH SPECIALIST PERK PACKAGE
Recently, Raven Software released an image teasing the return of a long-awaited fan requested feature from the original Warzone, the Specialist Perk Package. In this image, however, the Specialist Perk Package is resting on top of a Rebirth Island landmark.
Twitter leaks recently revealed that the specialist perk package isn’t set to launch in Warzone until Season 3 Reloaded, but details on which map the package is releasing for are unknown. This feature may be exclusive to Rebirth Island.
FULL REBIRTH ISLAND TAC MAP 2024
Raven revealed the updated tac map for Rebirth Island, which pays homage to the Rebirth Reinforced experience that was live during Vanguard’s life cycle. The points of interest releasing with Season 3 include:
- Stronghold
- Living Quarters
- Factory
- Harbor
- Chemical Engineering
- Bio Weapons
- Industry
- Prison

FREE REBIRTH BLUEPRINT
As apart of the announcement for #RebirthDay, Call of Duty revealed the “Caked Up” weapon blueprint, which will be added onto player’s accounts after they respond with their Activision ID to the following tweet:
PLAYLIST & LOADING SCREEN PREVIEW
Following the launch of Season 2 Reloaded, the usual leakers took to Twitter to reveal a new preview of the Season 3 Rebirth experience. Gameplay of the upcoming Warzone map is said to be released soon, while fans noticed the new loading screen is a dead giveaway for what map changes we’ll see.
Players who jumped onto Rebirth during Vanguard’s lifecycle are familiar with Rebirth Reinforced, a slightly different iteration of the map with new points of interest, and exclusive features like a weapon trade system. It appears this version is returning to Warzone Season 3.
Rebirth Map Updates and Quests
Following the positive reception of Fortunes Keep in MW3 and Warzone Season 2, it’s likely that Rebirth will see various map changes, similar to what High Moon just introduced. Fans can expect changes to Rebirth points of interests, but nothing too drastic where it harms the foundation and identity that Rebirth had over the course of two years.
Fortunes Keep also released with a refresh of all new quests and secrets. Rebirth Island never had more than one or two Easter Egg quests during Cold War or Vanguard’s life cycle, but it’s likely the studio will improve upon on the replayability that Rebirth Island had, and make it more akin to Fortunes Keep.
THE END
