Call of Duty: Warzone and Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will both get a new season in October, which is only a day away. Season 6 of Call of Duty will be released on October 7, and the new season will have tons of new content just in time for the fall season.
Season 6 of Call of Duty: Warzone will bring a slew of new features, the most of which were teased in a previous season update. The article disclosed specifics about the material that would be released next week, as well as a brief mention of Halloween-themed stuff. This year, Warzone will have a Halloween event dubbed The Haunting, which will begin on October 1, according to the article.
The Haunting will begin on October 19 and run through November 2, according to the article. The article doesn’t give too many specifics about the event, but it does give some ominous indications that this year’s Haunting may have a horror movie theme. When The Haunting is released, Call of Duty gamers will be able to play it in both Warzone and Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Players should return to the official Call of Duty blog on October 18 for further details. However, certain details regarding the Halloween event in Call of Duty: Warzone were leaked online before The Haunting was officially revealed. The leaks got the name incorrect, but they did hint that the 2021 Halloween event will take a cult-classic horror film approach this year.
According to the leaks, the Halloween event would have the renowned horror movie villain Ghostface from the Scream franchise as a game operator. According to further reports, the event would include a second operator dubbed “Donnie,” which enthusiasts assumed was a reference to the creepy rabbit character Frank from the cult classic film Donnie Darko.
The creators have not verified any of the details, although there is a chance that cult-classic horror figures will appear. The article makes it apparent that the event will involve horror films, but whether it will be specific ones or just the genre as a whole remains to be seen. The horror figures Jigsaw from the Saw franchise and Leatherface from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre served as operators in the previous Halloween event, “The Haunting of Verdansk” in 2020. This October, The Haunting may do something similar in Warzone and Black Ops Cold War.
