As per usual, be prepared for the release times to be delayed in case there's any last minute changes or setbacks from the developer. Call of Duty is pretty reliable in this regard - but you never know.

After that, be sure to set 2nd July free to see ten of the best teams from Australia, New Zealand, and Japan battle in a Quads invitational tournament on Rebirth Island, with the best team winning the largest share of a $20,000 AUD prize pool.


Warzone Season 5 is almost here! If you want to learn more about firepower from previously, we explain the best Welgun loadout, best Cooper Carbine loadout, best Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle loadout, best STG44 loadout, best MP40 loadout, best Automaton loadout, best BAR loadout, best Combat Shotgun loadout, best Type 100 loadout, and best Kar98k loadouts.


What's new in Warzone Season 4?

The theme for Season 4 of Warzone is Mercenaries of Fortune. It includes the following:

  • A brand new Resurgence map called Fortune's Keep. It's roughly the same size as Rebirth Island. Make sure to visit the Town, Winery, Keep and Smuggler's Cove areas of the map.
  • New in-game features will debut first on Fortune's Keep including Black Market Supply Run contracts, and Cash Extraction events.
  • In Black Market Supply Run contracts you can earn off-market loot by reaching Black Market stations before the timer runs out.
  • For Cash Extraction, ambush merceneriesas they attempt to extract cash for big rewards.
  • There's also an update to Caldera. Storage Town, the iconic location from Verdansk will be added in, and can now be found between the Mines and Dig Site.
  • A harsh drought has hit the Caldera map too, drying up the rivers. Merceneries have set up camps in these areas, making the map more dangerous to navigate.
  • To help you get across the new terrain, the armoured SUV is being added to Caldera first. It includes a dedicated rooftop turret seat, and room for Operators to use their own loadout weapons.

Have fun during Season 4!
