The excitement doesn’t stop there. A brand new game mode takes center stage: COD Warrior. This frantic mode pits three teams of two against each other in a series of mini-games, testing your combat prowess and teamwork in a unique way. Later in the season, prepare for Slam Deathmatch, a brutal mode where takedowns reign supreme – eliminate opponents with Finishing Moves to dominate the scoreboard.

Warzone Revamp

Warzone veterans rejoice! Season 5 brings back the beloved Superstore POI in Verdansk, located within Urzikstan. This iconic location is sure to reignite intense battles and chaotic encounters. But wait, there’s more! Superstore joins the fray for Warzone Resurgence, further amping up the close-quarter action.

Speaking of Resurgence, a new public event spices things up: Bounty Contest. When this event triggers, every team receives a Bounty Contract, tasking them with eliminating a designated target for a hefty cash reward. However, be warned – while you hunt, others might be hunting you!

Warzone Mobile players also get a slice of the action with fresh Verdansk POIs and the introduction of the Meat 6v6 map. Prepare for a whole new battleground to conquer!

Ranked Rewards and Weapon Rush

No new season is complete without a fresh set of rewards. Season 5 introduces brand new seasonal rewards for dedicated players grinding both Modern Warfare 3 Ranked and Warzone Ranked playlists.
