Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer is inheriting a huge legacy of locations, fan-favorite maps, and namesakes, with many hoping that several classic maps are revised in some way. It’s exciting for fans, for example, thatWarzone 2seemingly features Terminal, Quarry, and High Riseon its new map. But on the same level with those, if not perhaps more popular, is Rust.

ManyCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2players have fond memories of the first Rust, with it being the “1v1 me” map that many enjoyed as a competitive proving ground. Rust first appeared in the originalMW2, as it was derived from the Endgame mission, but it has also appeared inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)andCall of Duty: Mobile. Modern Warfare (2019)added it as part of season two andMobileadded it as part of season six, and fans hope to see it in the newModern Warfare 2. In fact, they can already “see” it.

As pointed out by Redditor nonvizo, Rust can be spotted via theSanta Sena 32v32 Ground War map. Many point out how Rust doesn’t seem as sandy and rusty as the original take on the map, but it’s definitely likely those elements come ifCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2adds Rust as an independent map. Several fans seem to believe that it will come to the game as a 6v6 map, eventually.

In fact, some believe it could be the promised “fan-favorite” map coming inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2season 1. It would be certainly welcome among the other features coming when season 1 releases on November 16. This includes the launch ofWarzone 2, the DMZ Mode, and the Battle Pass. Halfway through the season,Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is adding Raidsas well, which is a three-player co-op experience with a focus on strategy, puzzles, and combat. Indeed, it seems promising, but fans have a few weeks to enjoy the pre-season/season 0 period to learn the emergingCall of Duty Modern Warfare 2meta.

In the meantime, fans can keep their fingers crossed and hope the season 1 map is Rust. It could be something else, sure, butRust coming toModern Warfare 2seems bound to happen.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
