Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is fast approaching, but if you’re still getting your first-person shooting fix with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, you have more seasonal content to look forward to next week.
Season Six for both Modern Warfare’s multiplayer and the free-to-play battle royale, Warzone, is launching on all platforms on September 29. The trailer for the new season brings back two of Modern Warfare’s main characters–freedom fighter Farah Karim and Soviet soldier Nikolai. The two are involved in an operation underground, with an abandoned subway station looking like a new map setting for the new season.
The trailer doesn’t reveal much else about what will be included in Season Six or what will be exclusive to Warzone. You can probably bet on getting both Farah and Nikolai as operators with the battle pass, as has been the tradition with past season-headlining characters.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War launched its technical alpha for the game’s multiplayer on PS4 last week, following a formal multiplayer reveal earlier this month. A beta is coming to more platforms in October, coming first to PS4 before opening to Xbox One and PC players.
The next entry in the Call of Duty franchise will act as a direct sequel to the original Black Ops, inspired by historical events as you hunt down a Soviet sleeper agent during the height of the Cold War. Black Ops Cold War is out for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X / S on November 13. It also has a very confusing upgrade program for cross-generation support.
