Call of Duty Warzone and Cold War Season 4 Reloaded: start date and first details

Call of Duty Warzone and Cold War Season 4 Reloaded

As usual, the mid season of Call of Duty Warzone and Black Ops Cold War will bring with it a new wave of unreleased content. To announce it was the same Activision which, as already done with previous seasons, is ready to introduce a series of new content in the two popular games. Waiting to know in detail what will change within the two game worlds, the company has revealed when fans will be able to download the new substantial update patch.

Call of Duty Warzone and Black Ops Cold War will introduce players to Season 4 Reload starting next July 15th. As usual, the dedicated update will bring with it a series of new content, including a new map for the Zombie mode that will carry on the narrative line of Dark Aether. This was confirmed by Treyarch's own development team, which has already unbalanced itself on other additions coming next week.

The development team has already stated that they are making several fundamental changes to the gameplay and game balance of Zombie mode. These include the health of the enemies, the duration of the enemy armor, the critical and maximum damage of the sniper rifle, the damage of the Pack-a-Punched melee weapon. In addition to this, the damage of some equipment, support and other general updates of various kinds should also be reduced.

In all of this, Treyarch has not yet revealed what changes will be coming to the multiplayer of Black Ops Cold War. Same thing goes for Raven Software, which has yet to announce any changes that will be proposed in Call of Duty Warzone, but in less than a week we will know all the details of the new mid-season update.

Waiting to know the first official details on the next COD, you can buy Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War on Amazon at this address.






Call of Duty: Cold War and Warzone Season 4 Reloaded drops next week

Call of Duty: Cold War and Warzone Season 4 Reloaded is just around the corner. Developer Treyarch has revealed the next – and free – chapter in the former FPS game’s Zombies mode with a trailer showcasing its new round-based map, as well as the balance changes and some other details about the coming update on its blog.


First up, the when. Call of Duty: Cold War and Warzone Season 4 Reloaded is due to launch July 15 at 5am BST / 12am ET / July 14 at 9pm PT. The headline news is for Cold War’s ongoing Dark Aether storyline, which is introducing the new Mauer der Toten map – a location set in Berlin and “packed with new undead threats – and plenty of new ways to kill them”, as the studio explains.


As you can see in the gameplay reveal clip below, this brings a new CRBR-S Wonder Weapon, which comes with four variants, along with a craftable LT53 Kazimir weapon, which can “send your enemies into the Dark Aether or transport you to a different area entirely”. The Mule Kick perk is also on the way, which lets you bring a third weapon into the fold, and has five additional skill tier upgrades, too.


Here’s the reveal trailer for the new map:


As for balance changes, Treyarch is making some key changes to a whole bunch of aspects, including enemies’ health caps and armour durability, sniper rifle damage, “Pack-a-Punched” melee weapon damage, and equipment damage scaling. For example, Zombies, Specials, Elites, and HVTs are seeing their enemy caps at high rounds nerfed by varying degrees, while medium and heavy zombies are seeing their armour health dialled down, too. So, sounds like you’ll be able to go to town on them.
