Season 5 of Call of Duty Warzone brings a brand new game mode called Operation: Last Call

Call of Duty Warzone keeps its fans hooked with every season and mid-season update by introducing new and exciting game modes that are different from Warzone’s traditional battle-royale formula. Season 5 will be no different as it is set to bring Operation: Last Call with its launch.

Operation: Last Call is Warzone’s latest take on the traditional Search and Destroy COD game mode. In Search and Destroy, users play as teams and are tasked with either defusing or detonating bombs at specific areas on the map, which are marked as ‘objectives’. Players will have to win rounds by either eliminating all players or by completing the main objective

What sets Operation: Last Call apart is that Warzone will be implementing it in Caldera, allowing players to either be a savior or wreck havoc across one of Warzone’s largest maps. Based on the player's performance, the match will conclude with either of the two special endings.
