Activision has dated and detailed the final season of Call of Duty Vanguard and Warzone.

Season 5, which is titled ‘Final Stand’, looks set to bring an explosive end to the volcanic island of Caldera following its launch on August 24.

“Last Stand is bringing major updates to all three gaming experiences,” said publisher Activision. “In Warzone, Caldera’s Peak is ready to rumble — will you wreak havoc or defend the island from sabotage?

“In Multiplayer, deploy to two new fast-paced maps, Beheaded and Fortress. In Zombies, continue the Dark Aether saga and face off against Kortifex the Deathless in Vanguard’s round-based finale, ‘The Archon’.”

Season 5 goes live on August 24, following an update to Vanguard at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm BST on August 23 and a Warzone update 24 hours later.

Activision recently announced that Warzone 2 will launch later this year, soon after the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 release date of October 28.

Featuring “a new sandbox mode” and a “brand-new playspace”, Warzone 2 will be available for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC via Battle.net and Steam, as will Modern Warfare 2.

Activision has said that the original Warzone will continue as a separate experience when Warzone 2 launches.

The Warzone 2 release date may have been revealed earlier this week via what is reportedly a leaked internal Activision document, which listed it as launching on November 16.
