What to expect from the Shadow Siege event
So far, Activision has yet to fully detail what’s in store for the Warzone 2 Shadow Siege event. What we do know is that it will involve a siege on the Observatory POI on the Al-Mazrah map. It’s said to be an airborne-to-ground assault, where players will push back enemy forces while disarming chemical weapons.
In previous events, the action is followed up by a reveal trailer, which plays in-game. We’ll then find more information in a blog post that will go up concurrently with the end of the Shadow Siege mission. We’ll have to wait and see just how meaty this mission is, but in general expect it to be a shorter, more focused affair than a regular game of Warzone Battle Royale.
