Call of Duty: Warzone is gearing up for its next massive content update, with Season 4 officially launching on Thursday, May 29, alongside the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. This new season is packed with content: from major map updates to returning fan-favorite game modes and new features that bring strategic twists to the battlefield.
The Overlook: Verdansk’s Newest Landmark
Season 4 introduces a brand-new location to Verdansk called The Overlook — now the tallest structure in the game, towering over every other building. This massive skyscraper replaces several existing locations, including:
- Tenement buildings
- Burger Town
- SKN Comm Tower
- Post Office
- Rothwynn Donna
- City Hall
The Overlook includes multiple explorable floors, climbable cranes, rooftop ziplines, and reimagined interior locations like a relocated Burger Town and a Sushi Bar on street level. This new point of interest is expected to shift combat dynamics significantly, particularly in the late game.
Clash Mode Returns – Bigger and Better
The high-octane Clash Mode is back in Season 4. This 52v52 team deathmatch mode takes place across popular POIs such as Quarry and Promenade. Players start with their loadouts, and points can be earned through kills, contracts, and match events like:
- Firesales
- Bonus Crates
- New Search and Destroy Contracts
- UAV Towers
- SAM Turrets
- Door Barricades for close-quarters defense
Clash now includes five power-ups, such as Speed Boost and Double Down, and adds dynamic vehicles and an active train to increase chaos and tactical options.
Limited-Time Mode: Havoc Royale
Later in the season, players can dive into Havoc Royale, a wild twist on the traditional battle royale formula. This quads-based mode features circle modifiers that introduce random gameplay changes every time the gas shrinks. The result? Constantly shifting combat conditions that force teams to adapt or die.
New Mode for Beginners: Resurgence Casual
New to Warzone? Try Resurgence Casual, a lighter version of the classic mode that includes bots and does not affect your account progression. Set on Rebirth Island, it’s the perfect place for newer players to learn the ropes or for veterans to warm up.
Mid-Season Additions: Killstreaks and Contracts
Season 4 doesn’t stop at launch — mid-season updates include even more content:
- Care Package Killstreak: Calls in a crate filled with rare loot
- Loot Master Perk: Boosts the value of items found in caches
- Hand Cannon: A returning, high-damage, limited-use Killstreak
- Search and Destroy Contracts: Expanded to Battle Royale, Resurgence, and Plunder, introducing objective-based gameplay centered around bomb planting and defusal
Final Thoughts
Warzone Season 4 is shaping up to be one of the most content-rich seasons yet. Whether you’re scaling the heights of The Overlook, diving into chaotic 52v52 battles, or testing your adaptability in Havoc Royale, there’s something for every kind of player.
