Call of Duty Season 3 release date: Black Ops Cold War and Warzone updates
Spanning across Warzona and Black Ops Cold War, CoD Season 3 could be huge.
The Call of Duty: Black Ops - Cold War Season 3 release date is nearly here, with the massively popular shooter game once again teaming up with Warzone for an interconnected feast of new content.
Activision has been hyping up CoD Season 3 in a major way, saying in a big plot post, "Expect an explosive impact as the free content keeps flowing, with four more Multiplayer maps, six new weapons, the next chapter of Zombies in Outbreak, an earth-shattering Warzone update, and much more. Welcome to Season Three."
Fans have long been expecting a new Warzone map (perhaps created by a nuke), but what else could Season 3 have in store across the CoD franchise? And when does it all kick off?
If you want answers to those questions and more, keep on reading for all the essential details on Call of Duty Season 3 across Black Ops - Cold War and Warzone.
When is Season 3 release date for Black Ops Cold War and CoD Warzone?
CoD Season 3 is rolling out across Black Ops - Cold War and Warzone this week, with 22nd April 2021 being the key day on which a lot of this new content will go live.
