Call of Duty fans get their next big drop this week. Black Ops 7 Season 5 launches on Thursday, July 23, 2026, and it hits both Black Ops 7 and Warzone. Activision has already detailed the full lineup, so there is plenty to unpack.
The headline addition is Jubilee, a new 6v6 map. It takes place in a rural Japanese town where a festival turns into a firefight. Two remastered maps arrive alongside it. Frequency returns you to the Hunan mountains, while Dig rounds out the set.
Every new weapon in Black Ops 7 Season 5
Four weapons land at launch. First up is the FG42 assault rifle. Then comes the Gremlin SMG, which you can dual wield. The Mammoth LMG handles heavier fire, and the Mace covers melee. In addition, Spectre headlines the Season 05 Battle Pass.
More content follows mid-season. Turbo Tilt brings a pinball theme to the map list, and Freerun: Descent joins it. So the rotation keeps growing well past launch day.
Zombies and Warzone both get updates
Zombies players get the Eidskallen Lighthouse survival map. Kowakujo also gains a Directed Mode, which walks you through the story steps. Meanwhile, a round-based map arrives later in the season.
Warzone changes too. The Drone Labs point of interest drops into Verdansk. Players also pick up the HKDs killstreak, and Resurgence finally gets Ranked Play.
