Call of Duty: WWII Releases Winter Siege Trailer, New Weapon Details

The Winter Siege event in Call of Duty: WWII now has a new trailer and plenty of information on how players can take part in Gun Game, new weapons, and much more.

A new map called Winter Carentan will be available for the duration of the event, but that's just the start of a huge schedule that includes free loot, playlists, orders, and other features. Double XP and limited-time content will also be available during Winter Siege when the event starts on Dec. 8, but you'll only have until Jan. 2 to take part in the game's first community event.

Throughout the schedule that can be seen in full through Call of Duty: WWII's Winter Siege site, double XP will be offered in different rotating game modes in the normal playlists as well as the Nazi Zombies mode. Mixed in with those game modes is Gun Game, but it appears as though the game mode won't be sticking around forever. A description of all of the features in the Winter Siege event that can be seen below details the Gun Game mode as being a limited-time event
