Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are set to expand in a big way this week with the arrival of Season 4. In this post, we're running through everything that's announced and rumored so far, including new weapons, more maps, a possible wall-running feature, and more. The full blog post covering everything that's new in Season 4 will be released on May 21, but for now, here's everything we know.
Season 4 for Black Ops 6 and Warzone will launch on May 29.
Each new Call of Duty season continues the ongoing narrative, and that's no different for Season 4. In the new season, players can expect the return of a popular character--Stitch.
"After a daring black site breakout staged by Adler, he strikes a deal with the devil. Crack the codes and unmask the Pantheon moles in Season 04 of Black Ops 6," reads a line from the description.
The Fringe map from Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 is coming to Black Ops 6's multiplayer in Season 4. It's expected to be just one of at least a few new maps, as Activision normally releases multiple new maps with each new season.
As the new cinematic alludes to, Season 4 is adding Stitch as a playable character, and he looks quite menacing. Also coming in Season 4 are a group of new skins for Adler. There could be more operators and more skins, and we'll find out soon when Activision releases all the new details for Season 4.
Of course, Season 4 will introduce a new battle pass. And while it hasn't been revealed yet, completing it will yield a rad new skin for Stitch that you can see below.
Each new Call of Duty season typically adds more weapons for everyone, and that seems to be the case for Season 4. Detonated reports that the LC10 and FFAR from Black Ops Cold War are coming to Black Ops 6, while the Essex Model 07 from Black Ops 4 is reportedly on the way as well. A pickaxe melee item is coming as well, it appears.
Are we getting wall-running in Call of Duty before GTA 6? It seems like it's possible, as people have discovered a double-jump command in the game's code, while players can also seemingly run on walls. It's possible this is leftover code and isn't representative of anything coming to Black Ops 6 or the new Call of Duty later this year. But people are theorizing that Activision might add a limited-time mode in Season 4 that tests the waters for double-jumps and wall-running.
Season 4 should add more content for the battle royale game Warzone and the Zombies mode, too, but we're still waiting to find out what that may be. Keep checking back with GameSpot for the latest.

Double-jump and wall-running?
Are we getting wall-running in Call of Duty before GTA 6? It seems like it's possible, as people have discovered a double-jump command in the game's code, while players can also seemingly run on walls. It's possible this is leftover code and isn't representative of anything coming to Black Ops 6 or the new Call of Duty later this year. But people are theorizing that Activision might add a limited-time mode in Season 4 that tests the waters for double-jumps and wall-running.
A double jump type moment has been found in Black Ops 6 files after recent update. It’s not clear yet if this will actually be used in Call of Duty 2025 or leftover code. pic.twitter.com/5kxBoTnNA0
