It feels like Modern Warfare 4 only just launched (it did, less than a week ago), but the game is already loading up for its first content season.
Season one of the new Call of Duty begins on Nov. 6, and it’s adding a battle pass full of content, plus a new endgame area for DMZ, Warzone integration, several new weapons and multiplayer maps, and events to dig into.
The highlight beyond the normal seasonal CoD releases is X01, “a previously undiscovered weapons facility” found within Hajin, which will add a new challenge for players to try after their DMZ grinding and leveling got them up to snuff. And running the show is none other than fan-favorite character Ghost after surviving the events of the game’s campaign.
“Recent reconnaissance along the northern border of North Korea has determined an infiltration point, allowing for deployment through Hajin,” the teaser reads. “Current data suggests this facility was a GRANIT Arms black site. It appears comprised of a dimly lit, labyrinthian network of passageways, tunnels, and linking chambers surrounding a clandestine weapons assembly line and other, more surprising locations.”
Activision says to “expect heavy resistance, as intel brought back by Ghost indicates troops and specialists from the 100 Spirits NK Faction may be active in the vicinity, and it may be unwise to engage them in head-to-head combat.”
