Season 6 for Black Ops 7 and Warzone will launch globally on Thursday, 17 September 2026, according to source<\/a>. The update will be available across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms, bringing a wealth of new content to the popular shooter.<\/p>\n The season features the annual Halloween-themed ‘The Haunting’ event alongside a major DOOM crossover. This DOOM crossover includes exclusive Operator skins, specifically allowing players to drop into matches as the Doom Slayer and a classic Doom Guy 1993 skin. It is important to note that exact pricing for the DOOM crossover bundles and exact launch times for the update have not yet been officially confirmed by Activision.<\/p>\n Players will also have access to a fresh arsenal. Four new weapons are being added to the game: the TR51 Para (Assault Rifle), the returning fan-favourite VMP (Submachine Gun), the Arcblade (Melee), and the Roc 20mm (Special Weapon).<\/p>\n Warzone is receiving a spooky overhaul just in time for Halloween. The battle royale will feature a ‘Haunted Hollow’ map variant and introduce a new 64-player ‘Giant Infected’ limited-time mode. Meanwhile, Zombies mode gets a new Survival map called ‘Tenshu’ and an Endgame event titled ‘The Forbidden Summoning’.<\/p>\n UK players should aim to finish their Season 5 Battle Pass before 17 September to prepare for this final major Black Ops 7 content drop. With the season fast approaching, now is the time to grind out those final tiers and unlock any remaining rewards.<\/p>\n Fans of the DOOM franchise will want to ensure their platform wallets are topped up in advance to purchase the exclusive Doom Slayer operator bundles as soon as they become available.
