The Call Of Duty Season 6 wait is almost over. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are set to launch their final major update of the year with Season 6 on October 9. This highly anticipated seasonal update arrives just one day after the Black Ops 7 Beta ends. It will include the annual Haunting event, rumored map changes, new weapons, and themed operators.

Call of Duty Season 6 always carries big expectations. It marks the transition into the Halloween season and often sets the stage for the next Call of Duty title. This year is no different, with multiple crossovers, gameplay shifts, and cosmetic updates expected to dominate attention.

Halloween takes over with the return of the Haunting

The headline for Call of Duty Season 6 is without a doubt the return of The Haunting event. Known for spooky map makeovers and crossover skins, this year’s Haunting could be one of the biggest yet. Leaks suggest:

  • The return of Rebirth at Night, a darker and more intense version of Rebirth Island
  • A possible comeback of The Haunting of Verdansk with nighttime elements
  • The return of Haunted Drops, previously found in game files after Season 5 Reloaded
  • Halloween-themed map variations, including potential changes to Nuke Town and other fan favorites
  • Brand-new horror crossover operators and blueprints tied to scary movies and franchises

This year, the Haunting is expected to stretch across multiple modes including Multiplayer, Warzone, and possibly even Zombies.

Major changes rumored for Verdansk in Season 6

In addition to Halloween content, a significant change may be coming to Verdansk. According to reliable leakers, the map could receive a geographical update featuring a fjord or rift. This might affect several regions on the map or alter gameplay flow.

In previous Call of Duty mobile iterations, developers introduced changes like flooding rivers or breaking dams. That could happen here as well. While not officially confirmed, a Verdansk map update would be a welcome refresh before the arrival of Black Ops 7.

Season 6 weapon leaks: MP40 and the mysterious wand

Every new season Call of Duty Season 6 brings weapon additions, and this one appears to continue that trend. The following two weapons are heavily rumored:

  • MP40: A classic submachine gun expected to be available through the Season 6 Battle Pass
  • The Wand: A special weapon with multiple firing styles including ball, burst, bomb, beam, and area-of-effect

The Wand has drawn attention for its bizarre design and potential to introduce fantasy-like mechanics. Whether it’s tied to a Harry Potter-style crossover or simply a unique experimental weapon remains to be seen.

New operators coming in Season 6

Leaked files point to five new operators: Gummy, Milk, Peach Ring, Caramel, and Dark. While the codenames offer no context, many expect these to represent horror-themed or Halloween crossover characters. A mix of original characters and pop culture icons is likely.

Battle Pass, BlackCell, and BO7 crossover potential

Call of Duty Season 6 will include a full Battle Pass packed with Halloween-themed skins, blueprints, charms, and calling cards. There will likely be a Blackcell tier as well, offering exclusive cosmetics. Many expect Black Ops 7’s pre-season to allow players to continue progressing through the Season 6 Battle Pass, similar to past transitions between titles.

This makes it more rewarding for Call of Duty Season 6 players who plan to switch over to BO7 but still want to complete the Season 6 content.
