Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Call of Duty: Warzone started Season 05 on July 23. The update adds new maps, weapons, modes, and progression rewards across multiplayer, Zombies, Endgame, and Warzone.
The amount of content is large, but the main changes are easy to break down.
Multiplayer and Zombies
Multiplayer gets Jubilee, a new map set in a rural Japanese town. The season also brings back Dig and Frequency in updated form, with more content planned later in the season.
Zombies adds Eidskallen Lighthouse as a new survival map. It is built around a cold coastal setting and is also tied to a leaderboard event with cosmetic rewards.
Black Ops 7's Endgame mode receives Burn Run, an assignment where players drive a vehicle carrying a bomb and add time by hitting targets along the route. Ability Boosts also add more ways to improve major and minor abilities during a run.
Warzone changes
Warzone adds Drone Labs, a new point of interest south of the Quarry on Verdansk. The area includes office and research buildings, along with an outdoor drone course.
The update also introduces limited-time modes and new equipment. Some features are scheduled for the middle of the season rather than launch day.
New weapons
The launch weapons include the FG42 assault rifle and Gremlin SMG through the Battle Pass. The Mammoth LMG and Mace melee weapon are tied to later events or challenges.
As usual, players should check the official patch notes for exact balance changes. The larger announcement focuses on content, while the patch notes cover weapon tuning, bug fixes, and mode-specific adjustments.
Season 05 is not one single update for one type of player. It spreads its changes across competitive multiplayer, co-op Zombies, Endgame, and the free Warzone experience.
