All upcoming features for MW3 and Warzone Season 5

Since there’s much to discover in MW3 and Warzone’s Season 5 roadmap, we’ll narrow down the highlights first:

  • Urzikstan Superstore POI
  • Warzone Resurgence modes
  • 2 New Multiplayer Core 6v6 maps
  • 3 New map variants
  • 6 Aftermarket Parts
  • MW3 Zombies final story mission
  • Four free base weapons
  • New Game Modes and Playlists
  • Season events
  • New Operators (WWE crossover)

The four new weapons, Static-HV, STG, Spear, and Torque 35, will be available during Season 5. While Static-HV acts relatively like a compact LMG, the STG packs a punch as a fully automatic weapon. If you liked the Sledgehammer, you should definitely get your hands on the Spear, a robust Melee Weapon that can hit from a distance. The Torque 35 compound bow can extend your attack range further and increase the strength with longer pullbacks.

Whether you’re on Warzone or Modern Warfare 3, you can test out the upcoming new Aftermarket Parts listed below:

  • JAK Widemouth Barrel
  • JAK Slash
  • JAK Protean
  • JAK Cataclysm
  • JAK Devastators
  • JAK Deathmarch

Enhance your weapon’s performance with these Aftermarket Parts, a diverse range of upgrades that cater to different playstyles. In particular, the JAK Devastators significantly boost the damage rates of the Reclaimer 18 Shotgun, albeit at the cost of accuracy and recoil control. Players must complete Weekly Challenges first to earn these items.

You can expect new Operators during this time, like Valeria Garza, WWE’s Mami, Ivan Alexxeve, and Reckoner. Rey Mysterio and Cody Rhodes can also be purchased in the store for even more WWE content.

Bait and Yard will be released for MW3 Season 5 on Multiplayer. Bait is a medium-sized map that takes you to the coast, featuring various POIs like Boat House and Restaurant. But if you prefer smaller maps, venture to Yard for quick-paced battles.

Map variants will also be a part of Season 5, including Celship (Shipment), Toonoxide (Rust), and Ink House (Stash House). When diving into these locations, you can participate in the upcoming COD Warrior mini-games that are different from standard modes. Take, for example, Beat Up the Car!, a mini-game where the first team to destroy a car wins.

To go along with the WWE crossover, you can enter the ring of Slam Deathmatch. Use WWE Finishing Moves to earn points during the SummerSlam event. Even more so, the mid-season will bring Game Modes such as Fishfection, Paintball, and Defuse or Destroy.

Modern Warfare 3 Zombies Season 5 content showcases the final story mission for the campaign. Complete this quest to unlock an exclusive cinematic and new Dark Aether Rift challenge. Additionally, new Schematics are on the way, such as the Disciple Bottle, Grenade Bandolier, and Stash Increase.

Warzone Season 5 content

For Warzone Season 5, we have the Superstore POI for Urzikstan. The Atlas Superstore functions similarly to Verdansk’s original version, allowing you to loot for rare weapons and gear. Go south of Orlov Military Base to spot the store, or land on the rooftop for easy access.

In addition to looting, players can participate in Superstore Resurgence. Dominate the relatively small battlefield in this 10-minute match against 28 players. Supreme Resurgence will also return to Rebirth Island. Win the first match to earn the Spilled Beans Weapon Camo.

Elite Contracts will now be available in these modes to gather valuable rewards. It’ll run shorter than standard Contracts, making it much more challenging to complete. Luckily, it’ll be worth the effort, as you’ll earn buffs like Advanced UAVs, Foresight Killstreak, and the Specialist Perk Package.
