What s new in Warzone Season 5 The theme for Season 5 of Warzone is Last Stand. It includes the following: Caldera's volcano has erupted, transforming the Peak area - adding lava and falling rocks to the map. Watch the your feet - and the skies! Caldera also has a volanic-themed Gulag to survive in between rounds. Elsewhere, the map has seen "lighting changes" with the advent of volcanic clouds across the map. A Doomsday Station will appear once per match somewhere on the map. Pay $10,000 to activate, then defend the position against oncoming enemies to earn powerful items and a unique Watch cosmetic. Elsewhere, theres a new melee-focused Rage Serum field upgrade, while a new Supply Box UAV Killstreak will mark all unopened boxes nearby - including the addition of a Personal Supply Box with your own Loadout inside. Get these from Supply Boxes or Buy Stations. New mode Operation: Last Call, which is inspired by Search and Destroy, has you defuse bombs across the island, while also surviving the 'Lava Rock' public event which sees volcanic debris falling from the sky. Another mode, Heroes vs Villians, is also coming later in the season. There will be two new weapons at launch - energy rifle 'EX1' and SMG 'RA 225' - and three more in-season, the Valois (revolver), BP50 and Lienna 58 (assault rifles). New operators based on series villians - including Raul Menendez (Black Ops 2, launch), Khaled Al-Asad (Modern Warfare, launch), Gabriel T. Rorke (Ghosts, in-season) and He 'Seraph' Zhen-Zhen (Black Ops 3, in-season). Have fun during Season 5! To see this content please enable targeting cookies.
