Season 4 forCall of Duty: Modern WarfareandWarzonehas been expected to kick off on Wednesday, June 3 for some time, but now it’s been officially confirmed. Activision has announced thatCall of Duty: Modern WarfareandWarzoneseason 4 will kick off on June 3, and to commemorate the announcement, it has released a new trailer recapping the story so far.
SomeCall of Duty: Modern Warfarefans may not even be aware of this, but the story of the campaign has actually been continued in theSpec Ops co-op missionsas well as through theWarzonebattle royale. Currently in the ongoing storyline, Captain Price and his Task Force 141 team are trying to hunt down Mr. Z, who has been causing chaos around the world. This storyline will play out mostly in new Spec Ops missions that are coming as part of season 4, butCall of Dutyfans can expect development in other game modes as well.

Besides confirming theCall of Duty: Modern Warfareseason 4 start date, Activision has also confirmed that the new season will see the debut of Captain Price as a multiplayer andWarzoneoperator. Like Alex and Ghost before him, Price should be available to anyone that picks up theModern WarfareSeason 4 battle pass, which will presumably be available when season 4 itself launches on June 3.
It’s unlikely that Price will be the only new character added toCall of Duty: Modern Warfareseason 4, and in fact, Activision has suggested that another fan favorite character could be joining the fray as well. Activision’s blog post aboutWarzoneseason 4 says, “After an intercepted phone call between Target Denver and one of his elite soldiers, we learned of Armistice finally bringing out their ace in the hole: Task Force 141’s finest in Captain John Price and the final squad member he nominated to this Tier One group.” This seems to suggest thatJohn “Soap” MacTavishwill be joiningCall of Duty: Modern Warfarein season 4.
Soap was first teased forModern Warfareat the end of the story campaign, so it will be interesting to see him finally make his debut. Of course, it’s possible that this is referring to a completely different character, and so fans shouldn’t get their hopes up just yet.Activisionhas promised “character biographies” in the coming days, and it’s quite likely that the other new playable character will be revealed through one of those.
In the meantime, fans can expect a lot more new content in bothCall of Duty: Modern WarfareandWarzonewhen season 4 launches. This will likely include new weapons, multiplayer maps, and changes to theWarzonebattle royale. Expect more detailed information in the days ahead.
