Trailer of Warzone Season 1 is almost here! The new Hajin Conflict trailer teases two battlegrounds, Hajin and Zodiac, bringing fresh Battle Royale and Resurgence experiences on November 6.
Call of Duty: Warzone is preparing for a major expansion with Season 1, bringing two new battlegrounds to the free-to-play experience on November 6.
The latest official Call of Duty trailer promotes the upcoming update under the banner of Hajin Conflict, teasing an escalating war across two distinct locations.
While the trailer's announcement is brief, previously published information from Activision provides a clearer picture of what players can expect: Hajin is coming to Battle Royale, while Zodiac will introduce a new Resurgence experience.
Warzone Season 1 Introduces Hajin and Zodiac
The arrival of two maps is one of the most significant confirmed additions to Warzone's first season alongside Modern Warfare 4.
Hajin is a location already associated with Modern Warfare 4's DMZ experience. Season 1 will bring the map into Warzone's Battle Royale mode, expanding its role beyond the extraction-focused gameplay of DMZ.
Zodiac, meanwhile, is a new Resurgence map developed by Beenox. The location centers on the DRC Advanced Systems drone assembly and manufacturing headquarters, introducing a different environment for players who prefer Resurgence's redeployment mechanics.
The distinction matters because the two additions are not simply alternative locations for the same playlist. They are intended to support different ways of playing Warzone.
What Makes Hajin and Zodiac Different?
Hajin's arrival in Battle Royale represents an opportunity for players to explore a location previously associated with another Call of Duty mode.
However, familiarity with its DMZ version should not automatically be taken as evidence that every location, route or gameplay feature will function identically in Battle Royale.
The final Warzone implementation will determine how the environment supports Battle Royale's circle rotations, looting and squad engagements.
Zodiac offers a more clearly defined experience.
As a Resurgence map, it supports the mode's signature redeployment system, allowing eliminated players to return while their teammates remain alive under the applicable respawn conditions.
One particularly interesting confirmed feature is a train, which Activision previously highlighted as part of Zodiac's environment.
Its exact tactical importance will depend on the final map layout and how players can interact with it. Nevertheless, a moving element of this kind could influence how squads approach rotations and positioning.
For players deciding where to spend their time when Season 1 arrives, the key difference is straightforward:
Hajin: A new Battle Royale battleground connected to Modern Warfare 4's DMZ setting.
Zodiac: A dedicated Resurgence environment developed by Beenox, featuring the DRC Advanced Systems facility and a train.
These distinctions provide a more useful picture of Season 1 than treating both locations as interchangeable new maps.
When Does Warzone Season 1 Launch?
The official promotional announcement lists November 6, 2026, as the launch date for Call of Duty: Warzone Season 1.
Warzone remains free to play, meaning players will not need to purchase Modern Warfare 4 simply to access the free-to-play Battle Royale experience.
The announcement establishes the two-map direction of the update, but additional details about their complete layouts, playlists and gameplay systems should be distinguished from what has already been confirmed.
With Hajin expanding into Battle Royale and Zodiac offering a dedicated Resurgence battleground, Season 1 is shaping up to deliver two different map experiences rather than a single new location shared across Warzone's modes.
