Infinity Ward and Activision are delaying Call of Duty Modern Warfare and Warzone content in the wake of nationwide protests against police violence. In addition to Modern Warfare and Warzone Season 4, Call of Duty Mobile Season 7 has been delayed indefinitely.

The delay was announced on the official Call of Duty Twitter account in a post that reads:

"While we all look forward to playing the new seasons of Modern Warfare, Warzone, and Call of Duty: Mobile, now is not the time. We are moving the launches of Modern Warfare Season 4 and Call of Duty: Mobile Season 7 to later dates. Right now it's time for those speaking up for equality, justice and change to be seen and heard. We stand alongside you."

Call of Duty Modern Warfare Season 4 was set to go live Wednesday June 3 with new weapons, maps, and Captain Price as a new operator. Call of Duty: Mobile season 7 would've followed on Friday, June 5 with a "radioactive agent" theme.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
