A subway system is coming to Warzone

The biggest change in season 6 is the new subway system added toWarzone, known as Metro. It will serve as a fast travel system that can be accessed by visiting various points of interest around the map of Verdansk. These subway locations will now be high-traffic spots and will allow you to quickly zip around the map — so long as your destination lies within the gas. Activision refers to these spots as “high risk, high reward,” as they will now be home to a slew of players looking to utilize the new fast-travel feature.

This comes as one of the biggest changes to Verdansk and will likely make a huge impact on how matches play out. From the trailers and promotional material, it seems the subways will emphasize close-quarters combat, so make sure to come equipped with an SMG or shotgun. As you’ll recall, these subway entrances have been in the game sinceWarzonelaunched and will now be opened up for players to utilize.

In total, there will be seven subway stops throughout the map that we’ll list in order below:

New weapon rotation and a limited time battle royale mode

In addition toWarzone’s new subway system is an updated weapon rotation that aims to spice things up in terms of variety. Infinity Ward has added six common, 10 uncommon, 13 rare, 18 epic, and 24 legendary variants to the mix, which will hopefully get you closer to victory. As it stands, the weapon variety has gotten a bit stale, so fans are excited for the new rotation added with season 6.

Aside from that, a new limited-time mode called Armored Royale will be implemented, twisting the battle royale formula into an all-out vehicular assault. Each squad will have access to a Cargo Truck armed with turrets to take out the competition. As long as your vehicle is still functional, you’ll be able to respawn, but once it’s out of commission, you’ll be eliminated for good. It will play out similarly to a battle royale match, wherein the last squad wins — but it will be a new take on the popular mode, emphasizing vehicles instead of on-foot combat.

Additional maps, operators, and modes

On theModern Warfaremultiplayer side of things comes a laundry list of new additions, including maps, modes, and operators to enjoy. Many of the new maps are already part ofWarzoneand can be found throughout Verdansk. The highlight is the return of Broadcast, which originally debuted inCall of Duty 4: Modern Warfareas a DLC map. InModern Warfare, Broadcast can already be found inWarzoneat the TV Station, serving as one of the high-traffic areas across the map.

Here’s what to expect from the new multiplayer maps:

But new maps aren’t the only additions toModern Warfare. You’ll be able to try out five new game modes, all of which are variations on existing modes. Here’s a list of the new modes:

Keep in mind, Gun Game TDM, HQ: Firefight, and Hardpoint: Hills and Kills will not be available right away and will instead trickle out as the season progresses.

Two new operators, Farah and Nikolai, will also be available as soon as season 6 begins. You’ll remember these characters from theModern Warfarecampaign and from season 6’s promotional material. These operators will be unlocked by advancing through season 6’s new battle pass system.

Three new weapons (SP-R208, AS-VAL, and Butterfly Knife)

Warzoneseason 6 will introduce three new weapons, which are unlockable for free by leveling up the battle pass. These new weapons will be usable acrossModern WarfareandWarzoneand will feature a slew of customization options.

The first is the SP-R 208 marksman rifle, featuring multiple ammo types. It’s described as a powerful and mobile long-range firearm. This bolt-action rifle is great for long-range snipers who want more mobility and is unlocked at battle pass tier 15. Another new weapon is the AS-VAL assault rifle, which includes a built-in integral suppressor and is unlocked at battle pass tier 31. It offers a high rate of fire and accuracy — intended for stealth and excelling at medium range encounters.

The last weapon that was revealed is the Butterfly Knife, though this one will be added later on in the season. It’s unclear how this will differ from the standard combat knife.

100 new battle pass tiers to unlock

Finally, let’s cover what you can expect from the new battle pass in season 6. As always, it will include 100 tiers, each awarding you with some sort of unlockable piece of content, from cosmetics to COD points and weapons. Infinity Ward has highlighted the following unlockable items that will be awarded throughout the battle pass:

Remember, you can earn all of the rewards from the battle pass without spending a dime, but there are a couple of bundles that can be purchased with COD Points to speed things up. The first is the Battle Pass, which will set you back 1,000 COD Points, but includes both of the new operators, Farah and Nikolai, new weapon blueprints, a finishing move, and a new war track. The Battle Pass Bundle comes with 20 tier skips, along with two of the weapons, and costs 2,400 COD Points.

With season 6 falling around Halloween, Infinity Ward has teased a new mid-season event called Haunting of Verdansk. It will run from October 20 to November 3 and will feature festive, limited-time spooky events to participate in — though the developer hasn’t detailed what exactly it will entail. We do know it will feature limited-time modes and rewards, but currently, that’s all that has been revealed. Some players speculate this event could introduce zombies, but this has not been confirmed.

All in all, it seems to be an eventful season, with tons of free content to enjoy. It will be interesting to see how the next season will be handled, sinceCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warwill launch around the time season 6 ends.Warzonewill no doubt continue to be supported, but will this beModern Warfare’sfinal season? We’ll have to wait to find out.
