Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 remains one of the world’s best-selling games, even now. It has had a troubled life, marked by controversies, bizarre skin bundles, and issues with cheaters, but there’s no doubting the pull of Call of Duty. Now, fans are preparing to pick up the Black Ops 6 Season 5 Reloaded update, which brings a nice mid-season content drop.
Below, I’ve pulled together the key information about the Black Ops 6 Season 5 Reloaded update that you’ll need while you wait for it to drop.
When is Season 5 Reloaded Coming to Warzone and Black Ops 6?
Season 5 Reloaded of Black Ops 6 and Warzone will be released on September 4, 2025. This supersized update introduces a new map, ‘Jackpot’, a high-octane new multiplayer mode, fresh weapons and attachments, and new limited-time events (LTMs).
Here are the release times for Season 5 Reloaded in Black Ops 6 and Warzone:
- September 4, 11:00 AM CT
- September 4, 12:00 PM ET
- September 4, 5:00 PM BST
- September 4, 6:00 PM CEST
- September 4, 8:00 PM GST
- September 5, 1:00 AM JST

When Does Season 5 End in Black Ops 6?
Season 5 will wrap on September 9, which doesn’t give you all that long to grind the Call of Duty Battle Pass and unlock this season’s rewards ahead of the imminent release of Black Ops 7.
What’s in Season 5 Reloaded?
Season 5 Reloaded features a casino-themed map called Jackpot, a core 6v6 map. It’s pulled straight from the Black Ops 6 campaign. Players diving into Black Ops 6’s multiplayer platform after the update will also be able to play Cranked Demolition, Ransack, and Blueprint Gunfight, most of which can unfold on Jackpot.
When Season 5 Reloaded hits, you’ll be able to unlock the sweet Gravemark .357 Revolver, a stunning pistol with insane power output. Later in the update, players will be able to get the Combat Bow, a scorestreak rather than a core weapon. Those who love to run and gun will also appreciate the new PPSh-41 Helical Magazine attachment.
Zombies fans will get access to the Directed Mode for Reckoning, helping them to solve the map’s puzzles and trials, and Warzone users will gain access to the Deadline LTM.
