Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II & Warzone Season 05 Launching 3 August

From a fresh twist of the knife in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare story, to impressive free content drops across both Modern Warfare II and Warzone, to celebrating the 50th anniversary of hip hop, get ready for Season 05 on 3 August AEST/NZST! Check out the launch trailer below.

Nicki Minaj and Snoop Dogg Kick Off the 50th Anniversary of Hip Hop in Call of Duty

Although one date cannot define hip hop culture, few question what a party in the Bronx did for the culture on 11 August 1973, as that night is now forever tied to the birth of hip hop. In celebration of 50 years of hip hop, Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Warzone will have free content and special Bundles available in the season launch window including:

  • Nicki Minaj is ready to make all rival Operators pound the alarm as she joins the roster as Call of Duty’s first-ever self-named female Operator.
  • Snoop Dog, the D-O-DOUBLE G, returns once more. He is ready for any operation, whether it’s going under Deep Cover or going in guns blazin’.
  • 21 Savage (Mid-Season) Go Savage Mode as 21 Savage when his Operator Bundle drops as part of the Reloaded offerings.
