Black Ops 7 Season 05 Reloaded Arrives August 20 With Zombies Finale and New Modes

Season 05 Reloaded, the mid-season update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Warzone, is set to go live on August 20 at 9AM PT.

What changed

Zombies

• The Black Ops 7 Zombies storyline reaches its grand finale with the arrival of Rex Infernus.

Multiplayer

• A new map called Turbo Tilt is described as a Nuketown-inspired pinball machine setting.
• A brand-new Freerun course tests movement skills.
• Additional Weekly Challenges unlock new Attachments and a Mace Melee Weapon.

Warzone

• Black Ops Royale returns as a mode.
• Loaded Resurgence joins as a Weekend LTM.
• The Burn Run Assignment continues inside Endgame — players race a Guild-rigged UTV through flaming checkpoints, knocking over enemies and obstacles while managing a countdown clock. Repair and Boost power-ups appear along the route.

Endgame (Free to Play)

• Endgame remains free to play through the end of Season 05, with co-operative Operations available for leveling and rewards.

New in-game events with additional rewards are also mentioned, though specifics beyond the above were not detailed in the announcement.

For players tracking the Zombies narrative, the arrival of Rex Infernus marks a story endpoint the mode has been building toward — making this update more than a routine content drop.
