WWE is coming to Call of Duty for a heavy-hitting crossover in Season 5, which now has a release date of July 24.

In a brief teaser today, the official Call of Duty account revealed both the crossover and the release date for Season 5, but stopped short of showing exactly what the crossover entails.
At the very end of the teaser, we see silouettes of what appear to be multiple wrestlers, though it's unclear exactly who. But a lack of details hasn't stopped fans from speculating. The community is throwing out their guesses: could we be getting skins for wrestlers like Roman Reigns? Cody Rhodes? Seth Rollins? Rhea Ripley? John Cena? There are tons of exciting possibilities here. And it's not clear just yet if the wrestling ring in the teaser will make an appearance or, if so, how.
This is the first real info fans have gotten on plans for Call of Duty Season 5, but Warzone did just get a patch earlier this month featuring some nerfs to certain weapons. It also looks like, based on datamining, a Deadpool & Wolverine crossover event is in the works too, following crossovers with Fallout and Gundam just last month.
Roadmaps for each season are typically released roughly a week ahead of the season itself, so expect more details on both WWE in Call of Duty and all of season 5 relatively soon.
