In Call of Duty: Warzone, what is the name of the prison where eliminated players fight for a second chance? It is the Gulag.
In Warzone’s Battle Royale mode, being eliminated does not always end a player’s run. After a first death, the player can be sent to the Gulag, a prison-like combat arena where they face another defeated player in a one-on-one fight. The winner returns to the main match by redeploying.
The Gulag became one of Warzone’s defining features because it turned elimination into a tense second-chance contest. Both combatants traditionally receive the same or comparable equipment, making the duel depend more on positioning, timing, and accuracy than on their original loadouts.
The exact Gulag rules and layouts have changed across Warzone updates and versions. Some modes, including Resurgence, use different respawn systems and may not use the Gulag at all. That variation does not change the canonical name associated with Warzone’s prison duel.
