New in Warzone
The stadium is open: In Season 5 you can enter the »Acropolis National Arena« in Verdansk. In the stadium you can expect several accessible levels – the new area is quite large.
The train is here: A train loaded with loot is now traveling through Verdansk. You can jump on him to secure the loot – but you should be prepared for battles with opposing teams.
New station: You can now also enter the Verdansk Train Station. There you will find some nested, interconnected interiors. From here you can also board the moving train, for example.
Aiming high with zip lines: There are rope hoists at around 30 fixed locations on the map with which you can climb walls. This makes you a lot more mobile than before.
Mini Royale: In this mode, the normal Battle Royale is greatly shortened – only the first and last five minutes of a normal match take place. At the same time, fewer operators are sent to Verdansk. So expect more action in less time.
Changes: New weapon rotation, new unlockable songs in the Battle Pass.
New in Modern Warfare
New maps: There are four new cards for normal multiplayer.
- Livestock: A gunfight map with a twist – here you can not only play 2-vs-2, but also 6-vs-6. Because the map is very small, it should be extremely chaotic, perfect for grinding.
- Petrov Oil Rig: 6-vs-6 awaits you on this oil platform with five sections.
- Suldal Harbor: This map is probably still known to veterans from the old CoD parts. There are 6 vs 6 matches in a medium-sized area.
- Verdansk International Airport: A new ground war map located in and around Verdansk Airport. The roofs offer excellent sniper spaces.
New multiplayer modes:
- Bare Bones: All Perks, Killstreaks and Field Upgrades are deactivated)
- Search & Destroy Double Down : Like regular Search & Destroy, but with 12 instead of 6 players per side.
New operators: The Shadow Company is a new faction. Your leader Marcus »Lerch« Ortega is already available at the start of the Battle Pass. The already playable Roze joins the new grouping in Season 5. You will find two more operators, Velikan and Morte, as a bundle in the store during the season.
