Call of Duty: Warzone will be getting its next big content update this week, here’s when it’ll drop.
Call of Duty: Warzone, the free-to-play battle royale title formally known as Warzone 2, will be getting its first big update since the launch of Season 4 Reloaded in early July, with Season 5 set to introduce some new Hip Hop-themed operator skins, new weapons, a new resurgence map (in-season) and an exciting Call of Duty 2023 reveal, via an in-game live event. Although thanks to recent leaks, we already know the next Call of Duty title is going to be called Modern Warfare 3, so that does dampen the excitement somewhat.
Here’s when Warzone Season 5 goes live and what to expect from the new update.
The Warzone Season 5 will release at 5pm BST / 12pm EDT / 9am PDT on Wednesday, August 2 with the new season launching worldwide simultaneously across all platforms. We know this for certain as Activision confirmed the Season 5 update launch date and time in a blog post, but also because every big season Warzone update always goes live at the same time, and always on a Wednesday.
