Canyon

A sun-baked gorge of rock walls, a river and a central mesa, with wide open ground that punishes anyone caught crossing without cover.

Overview

Canyon is a new Season 1 map, added November 6. It’s set in a scorching desert gorge, and its cover comes from huge rock formations rather than buildings. A river winds along the northern side, past the wrecked vehicles of the Convoy Ambush, and climbs out toward the northeast corner.

The Cliff Path is a high, winding route that loops around the open canyon floor. The Central Mesa is the main high point, looking toward both ends of the map. A Cave on the north side leads to the Abandoned Shack, a known ambush spot, and small climbable ledges around the map give quick height.

Big stretches of open ground sit between the rocks, so time your crossings, use smoke, or move with a teammate covering you. The long views favor long-range weapons.

Hardpoint

The rotation listed for MW4 is Convoy Ambush, Lower Cliff Path, Cave, Upper Cliff Path, then Abandoned Shack. We haven’t confirmed where these spots sit on the map, so none are marked yet. Expect the Central Mesa to overlook several of them.
