Modern Warfare And Warzone Patch Notes For Season 5 - Eurogamer

Modern Warfare and Warzone patch notes: What's been introduced in Modern Warfare's Season 5

In brief, here's what's been added in Season 5:

  • The arrival of Shadow Company, a faction formed after the Armistice between the Allegiance and Coalition broke down, of which three operators are aligned - Rozlin "Roze" Helms, Velikan, and company leader Marcus "Lerch" Ortega. If Shadow Company sounds familiar, they are the unit under the command of Modern Warfare 2's General Shepherd - and form a key part of the Battle Pass.
  • A new Battle Pass, with 100 levels of new unlocks, including weapon Blueprints and COD Points, which can be progressed across all Modern Warfare multiplayer modes.
  • Several Warzone map changes - including a moving train (best of luck landing on it!) and the opening of the stadium.

  • Four new maps in Modern Warfare multiplayer - two 6v6 (Suldal Harbor, Petrov Oil Rig), one Ground War (Verdansk Intl. Airport) and one Gunfight (Livestock).
  • New weapons the AN94 and ISO, which will be playable play across all of Modern Warfare's multiplayer modes.
