Predicting the starting and ending date of each Call of Duty Warzone season is quite simple because Activision standardized their duration to about two months.

The exact date is revealed only a few days before the season launch, however, the season end mostly coincides with the Battle Pass end, which countdown is available in-game.

Previous seasons

Modern Warfare II

Season 1

  • At approximately 8 AM PT on November 16, Call of Duty: Warzone servers will temporarily go offline as Call of Duty®: Vanguard Season Five concludes.

  • At approximately 10 AM PT, Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 will be released as part of Modern Warfare II Season 01.

  • Once the Warzone 2.0 ecosystem is fully stable, and after a small development break for Thanksgiving for the developers who observe this U.S. holiday, Warzone is planned to be relaunched as Call of Duty: Warzone Caldera as a separate experience. This will happen at approximately 10 AM PT on November 28.

Vanguard

Season 2

To date, we’ve deployed a number of updates, but more needs to be done. For this reason, we have decided to reschedule the start of Season Two across Warzone Pacific and Vanguard to February 14.

We will use this additional development time to deliver updates, including optimizations to gameplay, game balancing (including weapon and equipment balancing), to fix game stability and bugs, and to ensure an overall level of polish to improve the experience for players across Vanguard, Warzone Pacific, Black Ops Cold War, and Modern Warfare.

Season 1

Your journey in Warzone Pacific begins with Season One of Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone Pacific on December 8th.

Cold War

Season 5

Activision delayed the start of season 5 from August 11th to 13th because of a testing issue they discovered earlier this week.

Season 1

The release date of Season One across the new Black Ops Cold War and free-to-play, free-for-everyone Warzone has been moved from December 10 to December 16.

Modern Warfare

Season 4

Activision delayed the start of the next season of Modern Warfare, Warzone, and Call of Duty Mobile to June 10th, in solidarity with the events that shook the world in that period.

Season 2

Over the next few weeks, a host of new items and challenges will arrive, including an in-game Challenge to earn the new Crossbow weapon, more remixed game modes, new playlists, and more in the Store to discover. To make room for all that activity, we are making a one-time extension of Season One – it’s now ending on February 11.
