Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 developer Treyarch Studios has officially announced that the game's highly anticipated Season 2 will launch on Tuesday, January 28. This update will also bring a wave of new content to the free-to-play Battle Royale title, Call of Duty: Warzone. Season 1 of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone, which began on November 14, will have lasted a remarkable 75 days by the time Season 2 arrives, marking it as one of the longest seasons in the franchise's history.

While Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 initially saw unprecedented success for Treyarch Studios and publisher Activision, boasting the highest player count within its first 30 days and becoming the biggest Call of Duty game to date, the game has experienced a noticeable decline in player numbers in recent weeks. This drop-off is attributed to persistent cheating issues in the game's Ranked Play mode and ongoing server problems. However, the upcoming Season 2 has sparked hope among fans that new content and significant improvements will revive the game's early momentum.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone Season 2 Release Date Confirmed

In the latest update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Treyarch Studios confirmed that Season 2 will be released on Tuesday, January 28. This announcement came during the discussion of fixes for the Zombies mode in the January 9 patch notes, where Treyarch mentioned that some unresolved issues would be addressed in the upcoming season. The studio then confirmed the launch date for Season 2. Although specifics about what Season 2 will offer remain undisclosed, a comprehensive blog post detailing the new season is expected in the weeks leading up to January 28.

Season 1 of Black Ops 6 introduced a variety of new multiplayer maps, modes, weapons, events, and more. This extensive content update also ushered in a new era for Warzone players, integrating the Battle Royale with Black Ops 6 and introducing a revamped movement system, numerous new weapons, significant gameplay updates, and a new Resurgence map called Area-99.

The first season also delighted fans with the return of beloved multiplayer maps such as Nuketown and Hacienda from Black Ops 4. While details on Season 2 remain unconfirmed, Treyarch has hinted at the possibility of more classic map remasters. In a December interview, Treyarch's Associate Creative Director Miles Leslie mentioned that no Black Ops map is off-limits for remastering, although the studio prioritizes creating original maps over remasters.
