In the latest announcement from the creators of Call of Duty, Infinity Ward, players are getting ready for the launch of Season 05 Battle Pass. The upcoming season promises to bring an exciting array of content, including new weapons, operators, tactical pets, and more. Let’s dive into the details of what players can expect in this new season without any marketing fluff.
BlackCell Season 05
The highlight of Season 05 is the BlackCell offering, which provides players with full access to the Season 05 Battle Pass, along with 20 Battle Token Tier Skips (25 on PlayStation). Purchasing the Battle Pass for 1,100 COD Points gives players access to all 100 Tiers of unlockable content. However, the BlackCell offering goes beyond that, adding 1,100 COD Points, the new BlackCell Operator Arthur, his Tactical Pet Merlin, the “Caliburn” Tracer Weapon Blueprint, and Gwen, a Battle Buddy Gun Screen. Additionally, players who upgrade to BlackCell after purchasing the Battle Pass will receive 1,100 COD Points back.
Shadow Company’s Arthur Joins BlackCell
Arthur, one of Shadow Company’s enigmatic leaders in cyber warfare, makes his debut in the BlackCell offering. Little is known about this warrior, as he prefers to keep his face hidden behind a callsign. Accompanying him is his loyal K9 Unit, Merlin, a Tactical Pet who will aid players in executing devastating Finishing Moves.
New Tactical Pets Companion Feature
A groundbreaking addition to Modern Warfare II is the introduction of Tactical Pets. Players will now have the option to bring companions alongside them in Multiplayer, Battle Royale, and DMZ modes. One such Tactical Pet is Merlin, who cannot be harmed and plays a crucial role in executing Finishing Moves. Players are advised to equip the Finishing Move separately from the companion when editing their chosen Operator.
New: Battle Buddy
Another exciting addition to Modern Warfare II is the Battle Buddy feature, which acts as a virtual “assistant” with some additional personality. The first Battle Buddy is “Gwen,” who comes equipped with her Gun Screen, preferred over the term “Battle Buddy.” Gwen will call out Killstreak activations, kills, and other in-game events, adding a unique touch to the gaming experience.
Unlock Graves and Oz with the Battle Pass
Players can unlock two Operators, Graves and Oz, by purchasing the Battle Pass for 1,100 COD Points. Graves is back, and alongside him is a new Shadow Company leader, Oz. Both these Operators headline the Battle Pass for Season 05, and players can learn more about their biographical information within the game.
Velikan Returns in Battle Pass
Returning from previous iterations, Velikan joins the Season 05 Battle Pass as the HVT of Sector 19. Although much about him remains unknown, his imposing presence and formidable skills on the battlefield have made him a force to be reckoned with.
New Weapons: Carrack .300 and FR Avancer
Season 05 brings two new functional weapons to the Battle Pass: the Carrack .300 Sniper Rifle and the FR Avancer Assault Rifle. The Carrack .300 boasts an exceptionally high fire rate, making it lethal in the right hands. On the other hand, the FR Avancer is a rapid-fire bullpup rifle that dominates in close to mid-range combat.
New Weapon Blueprints and Vehicle Skins
Season 05 offers an impressive collection of new Weapon Blueprints and Vehicle Skins. Players can expect to find a variety of options to suit their playstyle, with unique designs and attachments for different weapons and vehicles.
Tier 100 Rewards
Players who complete all Sectors and reach Tier 100 will be rewarded with the “Grandmaster” Assault Rifle Blueprint and the “Shadow 0-1” Skin for Graves. Additionally, BlackCell owners will receive the “Onslaught BlackCell” Skin for Oz, making the Tier 100 rewards even more valuable.
Store Highlights: Celebrating 50 Years of Hip Hop
The Store in Season 05 will also feature special bundles celebrating 50 years of hip hop. Players can expect iconic Operators like 21 Savage and Snoop Dogg, along with exclusive weapon skins, vehicle skins, and more.
Season 05 Battle Pass is set to be an action-packed experience with a wealth of content for players of Call of Duty: Warzone and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. From new Operators and tactical pets to functional weapons and cosmetic enhancements, players will have plenty of reasons to dive into the thrilling world of Modern Warfare. Keep an eye out for the Season 05 update and get ready for an exhilarating gaming experience!
