Call of Duty: Warzone Season 1 launched on 6 November 2026, marking a major integration with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. The update brings a fresh levelling experience, an influx of new weapons, and new gameplay mechanics to Warzone.
The centrepiece of the update is Hajin, a large new Battle Royale map set in South Korea — the first time the Warzone series has taken players to the region — which is narratively linked to the Modern Warfare 4 campaign. Season 1 also introduces Zodiac, a compact Resurgence map built around the DRC Advanced Systems drone assembly and manufacturing headquarters.
New gameplay features include the Zipline Launcher and Grabber Drone, moveable fuel barrels, pushable cover, Grind for Royalty, Weapon Augments, and Ground Ops, among others. Available modes at launch include Battle Royale, Resurgence, Casual variants of each, Rally Point, Massive Resurgence, and Loaded Resurgence. Mid-season will expand the offering with Extreme Resurgence and Rockets and Snipers.
The headline platform news is that Season 1 also marks the debut of Warzone on Nintendo Switch 2, making it the first time the title has been available on any Nintendo platform. Full Season 1 details are available on the official Call of Duty blog.
