Call of Duty devs just dropped the content updates for Warzone Season 5 on July 27. Among these offerings are new modes called Fort Resurgence and Armored Royale. However, these won't be accessible until the mid-season update.

Armored Royale makes a return to Warzone for an action-packed battle among squads on their tanky vehicles. Initially launched on October 2020 during Season Six of Call of Duty Modern Warfare, this is a fun new mode in Warzone Season 5 for teams to participate in. The official announcement reads:

"The MRAP’s return means one thing: Armored Royale is coming back. Reinforce your squad in this Battle Royale with a big difference — you’re dropping onto your own MRAP, and it’s up to you to use, fortify, and repair this hulking vehicle with its turret, protective shielding, and mobile Buy Station, while cutting through rivals operating their own behemoth trucks."

Each team will deploy adjacent to its armored truck at the start of a game. Since the circle is smaller and moves more quickly than in a typical Battle Royale encounter, it will be necessary to defend the truck from other teams because it is hard to outrun it on foot. The truck can be upgraded by players to offer extra protection and restore its health.

It's essentially a tank battle royale in which only one team can be declared victor.

Fort Resurgence is another game mode coming into the game in Season 5. The official announcement reads:

"A slice of Al Mazrah, specifically the Al Bagra Fortress and its greater surroundings, will be added to the Resurgence map rotation in Season 05. No matter how you spent time in Al Mazrah across Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare II, this map will slot in alongside Ashika Island and Vondel for Resurgence Rotation Playlists."

With this new mode, players can explore Fort Resurgence, a portion of the Al Mazrah map that concentrates on the Al Bagra Fortress multiplayer map and extends to the nearby fortresses. This typically cannot be accessed in your standard battle.


Aside from these new modes, there will also be a time-limited reveal event which is expected to come out soon. Warzone 2 Season 5 will be out on August 5.
