A new season has arrived to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, bringing a new series of madness to both Warzone, the battle royale game, and the overall multiplayer experience. The new season also brings a new season pass with unique operators for players to acquire along the way. Much like previous seasons, the season 5 battle pass costs 1,000 COD points, which translates to $9.99.

Warzone has the stadium at the center of the map available for players to explore. The open stadium offers various levels for players to explore to find new loot and is a great starting position if they survive. There’s also a new game mode called Mini Royale for teams of three to face off in quick, intense matches. The general multiplayer of Call of Duty will have a new ground war map featuring Verdansk’s International Airport from the battle royale map, along with smaller changes.

The full patch notes are available below. Players may notice a significant download size, but it’s to make the overall hard drive space for the game to take up less room, so it’ll be tough to endure at first, but well worth it.
