Leaks sourced from datamining efforts prior to this announcement indicated that the next season might be delayed ahead of Activision’s confirmation. The statement confirmed the new February 15th release date and said that changes have been in the works based on feedback from the community. Specific changes weren’t listed, but broader topics like a new map for Warzone 2 as well as new Modern Warfare 2 modes were teased.
“Season 02 includes all new content, with the return of Resurgence and a brand new small map for Warzone 2.0,” the statement from Activision said. Ranked Play is also back and coming to MWII, along with new multiplayer maps, new modes, weapons and much more. Stay tuned for additional intel.”
Separate from this tweet, Infinity Ward put out its own reassurance about the content planned for Season 2. Those plans include “exciting changes” for the gulag and other aspects of the battle royale game. More details will be shared soon in a blog post on the game’s site.
“We look forward to sharing more details on the updates coming to Season 02 in a deep-dive studio blog next week,” Infinity Ward said. “This includes exciting changes to Warzone 2.0 including the gulag, looting and loadouts. More soon!”

Activision intends it to be.
