Treyarch says Call of Duty: Warzone Season 1 goes live at 0000 (midnight) ET on 6 November, which is 2100 PT on 5 November. It brings full integration with Modern Warfare 4, two new maps and a pile of new gear.

What changes at launch

Player Level resets, and you can level up and optionally Prestige across Multiplayer, DMZ and Warzone. All 33 Modern Warfare 4 launch weapons are available, along with Apex Attachments, Season 1 Operators, Daily Challenges and Battle Pass and BlackCell progress.

Tactical Sprint no longer needs a Perk, though its duration is slightly shorter. You can also drag allies while reviving them, and footstep audio and map visibility have been improved.

Older weapons from Modern Warfare II through Black Ops 7 sit in a Legacy tab. They’re still usable, but can’t be edited in Gunsmith and don’t support Mastery Camos or build sharing.

New maps

  • Hajin (Battle Royale): set on the Korean Peninsula, with 13 major points of interest across North and South Korea, variable weather and a new Gulag.
  • Zodiac (Resurgence): a compact map built around a drone factory, with ten points of interest, moving trains, underground tunnels and explosive fuel barrels.

Verdansk and Rebirth Island return later in the season.

New gear and features

  • Zipline Launcher: fires a zipline your squad can use. Enemies can use it too.
  • Grabber Drone: picks up loot, objects and even downed teammates, with limited battery life.
  • Weapon Augments: three temporary weapon upgrades found at “Fly Buy” Buy Stations.
  • Grind for Royalty: personal challenges that reset each season and reward new camos.
  • Elite Perks: Athleticism, Phantom and Fieldcraft, found in matches, with one equipped at a time.

Modes

Battle Royale and Resurgence, plus their Casual variants, are there at launch. Limited-time modes Rally Point, Massive Resurgence and Loaded Resurgence arrive too, with Extreme Resurgence and Rockets and Snipers coming in the Mid-Season.

Rally Point is a no-circle, drop-in, drop-out mode on Zodiac that Treyarch pitches at new and returning players.

Season 1 Patch Notes are due on the Call of Duty Blog.
