Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Season 2 Reloaded introduced Himmelmatt Expo, a new Core map, and fans want to know if the 6v6 playground is coming to Ranked Play.
After Season 2's Multiplayer content only featured Dome and Valderas Museum, the developers pushed up the release of Himmelmatt Expo to Season 2 Reloaded. The map is located at a European spa resort, surrounded by the Swiss Alps.
The map features indoor locations, such as a Restaurant, Bar, Conference Room, and Tourist Office. The outdoor landscape contains a Pool, Sauna, and mountain views.
So, can players expect the new map in Ranked Play?
Is Himmelmatt Expo Coming to MW2 Ranked Play?
As of now, Himmelmatt Expo is only available in featured playlists for Season 2 Reloaded and Quick Play. There has been no announcement about its potential regarding Ranked Play.
Professional Call of Duty players have tested the map and come to the general consensus that the map could be a viable option for Search and Destroy and Control. Atlanta FaZe coach, James "Crowder" Crowder, called adding Himmelmatt Expo to the Control rotation a "no-brainer." As of now, they believe the map is too large to be viable for Hardpoint.
With Ranked Play confined to only six maps, Himmelmatt Expo would be a welcome addition to the rotation, especially in Control. The decision will come once the professional CDL players decide whether the map will offically enter competitive.
