Call of Duty's Season 5 Reloaded update is almost here and there are some new weapons to talk about! The only problem is... We don't really know what half of them are! Warzone and Black Ops Cold War are in for a treat when The Numbers event drops later this month and here's everything you need to know about the new Season 5 Reloaded weapons - Well, what we know about them so far...

RELEASE DATE - When does Season 5 Reloaded drop?

Call of Duty's next title update is due to drop next week at the following times:

  • 21:00 September 8th - PST
  • 23:00 September 8th - EST
  • 04:00 September 9th - BST

As you can see below - in the content roadmap - there's a lot of content that's due "in-season" as opposed to "at launch" with this update. It looks like Call of Duty are trying to ramp things up in the last couple of weeks of Season 5 - ahead of Season 6, which could be the final season of Black Ops Cold War content before Vanguard's release.

QUICK AND DEADLY - The Sai look fun, but do we really need more melee weapons?
" Hundreds of years ago, it was introduced to the island of Okinawa and eventually became adopted by the local police to aid in arresting criminals. For an outlaw like Kitsune, who grew up nearly 1,200 kilometers away in Kobe, wielding one is an irony she relishes."

[[CLASSIFIED]] - Season 5 Reloaded Launch

We know this isn't exactly the most useful information you've ever read, but Call of Duty has mentioned that "Classified Weapons" are coming to Warzone's Iron Trials '84 mode next week.

We don't know what these weapons will be - whether they're going to be standard weapons, scorestreaks, or something else - but this is what we have to go on at the moment:

" Be certain you [[REDACTED]] as these can [[REDACTED]], critical information we hope won’t get [[REDACTED]]."

We should learn more about Iron Trials '84 next week, before the Season 5 Reloaded update, and this should confirm what the Classified Weapons are going to be.
