- call of Duty Black Ops Season 5 has been revealed
- The update will be released on July 23, 2026.
- Big additions include new weapons, maps and modes.
With Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 On the way, Activision has revealed the next batch of content arriving in 2025. Black ops 7 and free-to-play war zone royal battle.
As detailed in Call of Duty blog, the major additions include five new multiplayer maps, three of which will launch alongside the season launch on July 23.
The one I’m most looking forward to is Jubilee, a brand new 6v6 environment set in a rural Japanese village. He is joined by Frequency, a remastering of a Black ops 4 map and a new version of Black Ops 2The iconic Dig (itself a version of World at warpatio).
The other two maps, Tubro Tilt and Freerun: Descent, will be added in the next Season 5 Reloaded update.
A large number of new modes
Some new limited-time modes will also be included as part of the update: Overdrive Domination (a twist on the classic Domination mode that incorporates Overdrive’s power-up stars), Gauntlet Rush (which rotates between five different game modes), and, mid-season, the return of Cranked Moshpit.
It wouldn’t be a new season without some new weapons and accessories, and the ones coming in Season 5 are some of the wildest yet.
At launch, you’ll be able to unlock the FG42 assault rifle, a modernized version of the World War II weapon with serious damage and almost no horizontal recoil, and the dual Gremlin SMGs, which trade the ability to aim down sights for extreme firepower and mobility.
Later in the season, the Mammoth LMG will be added, and true to its name, it’s a massive weapon with two high-powered barrels that fire continuously, plus a new mace-type melee weapon.
On the accessories side, completing weekly challenges will unlock things like the Jäger 45 Grid-Breaker Kit, a crazy pistol conversion that turns your weapon into a portable EMP blaster, or the M34 Novaline Garand conversion that transforms the futuristic burst rifle into a vintage top-loading one.
If you feel like diving in, Black ops 7 It is now available for PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and Series S, and Xbox One.
