The highly anticipated Season 6 update for Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare is scheduled to release on September 18. While development has shifted focus towards the integration of Black Ops 6 content later this year, this patch still brings meaningful changes for the free-to-play battle royale title.

Warzone Season 6 update

PC players will be able to pre-load the update starting today through Battle.net to ensure a smooth launch. PlayStation users will have the option to pre-load 1-2 hours before the 9am PT/5pm BST release time.

Exact patch notes will be posted one hour prior to season start on the Call of Duty blog. Based on previous updates, some expected adjustments include:

  • Weapon balancing tweaks – The developers will aim to refine the meta and adjust any over/under-performing weapons.
  • Quality of life fixes and UI improvements – Though larger UI changes may come with Black Ops 6 integration, bugs will be squashed.
  • Bug fixes – As always, stability and performance issues will see resolutions.

Beyond balancing and optimizations, there is no leaked information on major new content additions this season. Michael Myers was data-mined as a potential operator skin but remains unconfirmed.

Larger feature updates may now be timed closer to the transition to Black Ops 6 content later this fall. For all the official details, players are encouraged to check the blog one hour before September 18th for the full Season 6 patch notes.
