When did the first Modern Warfare 2 season start? The MW2 Season 1 release date was November 16. It arrived alongside Warzone 2, also bringing the highly anticipated DMZ mode with it.

Modern Warfare 2 season 1 new maps
With season 1 of MW2 comes the return of a fan-favourite map; Shoot House. A live-fire training area converted into a bloodbath for the multiplayer shooter, Shoot House is a classic for a reason and is a great arena for leveling up your guns.
Modern Warfare 2 pre-season dates
The pre-season of Modern Warfare 2 ran from its launch on October 28, until the Season 1 release on November 16.
Modern Warfare 2 Spec Ops and Raids
This two-player co-op experience is an extension of the campaign and a refined version of the 2019 Spec Ops mode. Three Modern Warfare 2 Spec Ops missions are available at the start of the first season.
Around halfway through the first season, when Season 1 Reloaded begins, Raids are coming to Modern Warfare 2 too. This is a new type of mode described in a Call of Duty blog post as “a three-player cooperative experience requiring teamwork and strategic, puzzle-solving thinking in-between bouts of intense combat.”
