KEY POINTS

  • "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" Mid-Season 3 refresh arrives Thursday
  • The upcoming refresh is expected to introduce a lot of contents to the game
  • Activision has not yet revealed the release date of "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" Season 4

"Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" Outbreak mode is scheduled to receive its first main quest when the Mid-Season 3 refresh drops Thursday. "Die Hard's" John McClane and Rambo also arrive at the same time on both "Warzone" and "Black Ops Cold War."

For fans already looking forward to the next season, here are some exciting details about "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" Season 4.

Season 4 release date

Both "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" and "Call of Duty: Warzone" are in the middle of Season 3. Developers have not yet revealed the specific release date of Season 4. However, based on the game's release pattern and Battle Pass schedule, it is easy to predict when the next season would drop.

The current "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" battle pass ends on June 16. This means the game's Season 4 would kick-off at the same time the battle pass ends or a little bit later. That is, of course, assuming that Activision has no event planned to bridge the third and the fourth season.

Season 4 content

In a recent blog post, game developer Treyarch shared some details of the contents coming in "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" Mid-Season 3 and Season 4. According to Treyarch, the next round-based Zombies map that would take place after the events of Outbreak's main quest will be released in the next season.

"As we mentioned in our Season Three Special Broadcast, our next round-based Zombies map is planned to release during Season Four and will take place after the events of Outbreak's Main Quests," Treyarch said. "The team has been working on this next map since before the release of Firebase Z. We want to make it the best experience it can possibly be before it's finally in your hands."

Additionally, players can expect new Perks, Support Weapons, Wonder Weapons, limited-time modes and Dark Aether story intel in the future seasons of the hit shooter title.
