What changed on 6 November 2026
The Call of Duty blog set Season 1 for 6 November 2026 at 00:00 ET, which is 21:00 PT on 5 November. That drop folds Warzone into Modern Warfare 4. Hajin is the new battle royale map and Zodiac is the new resurgence map. Verdansk and Rebirth Island are scheduled to return later in the season. The blog does not give those return dates, so I leave the clock blank.
Activision’s platform note and the store page agree on the live set: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, Battle.net, Xbox on PC, and Switch 2. The online-services page I read at 06:52 PST on 10 November listed those six as online and did not list PS4 or Xbox One.
Today’s loadout argument
I am not merging the two public meta lists into one ranking. On 10 November, WZStats ordered Cronen Osprey, ISO Nightshade, HAN 86, VEL 46, then Mosin-Nagant. WarzoneLoadout’s 9 November table puts VEL 46 first at close range and KG-7 Vulcan first among snipers. Both lists are linked from the meta page.
