Original post 11/08/2021:
It seems Activision has pushed back the start of the new season even further. The release was originally scheduled for 12 August. From 6am on 11 August you would have been able to pre-download the new update for Cold War. One day later, the update would have been released for Warzone. So far, however, it has not been made available.
The missing possibility to download the update in advance is not the only indication of a postponement. On the official website, the cover image for the new Season 5 has also been changed. Previously, the release date was 12 August, now it simply refers to a date within this week.
Many players are currently somewhat disillusioned by the lack of content and are eagerly awaiting the new update. Due to bugs or problems, it is possible that the new season will not be released until a few days later.
