Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific and Vanguard will soon be receiving a major update as the games welcome their second season.

To celebrate the launch, players will be able to earn double XP in all their matches for both games.

A couple of new game modes will also be added to the rotation so players can enjoy Caldera with new objectives and utilise new strategies.

Here's everything you need to know about the Season Two launch for Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific and Vanguard.

Season Two release date

Season Two will go live on February 14 which is also Valentine's Day so you may want to cancel that date you've got planned if you want to grind the launch.

Updates will also be available to download for Vanguard on February 10 at 5pm UK time while Warzone's update will be available on February 14 at 5pm UK time.

While the update for Vanguard is available four days earlier than Warzone, players won't be missing out on much since Season Two will go live on February 14 for both games at the same time.

Here's what players can look forward to enjoying in Season Two.

Warzone Pacific

Nebula V — Ammo and Bombs
The Nebula V Bomb will be an extremely deadly weapon in Season Two (Activision)

Call of Duty's website states: "Nebula V is meant for larger-scale armaments but can be used for small-arms ammunition and bombs, both found in extremely small quantities around Caldera."

The Nebula V ammo will be classed as a Field Upgrade and isn't much different to normal ammo, except when an opponent is downed by the bullets, they will emit a poisonous gas cloud.

This will make it harder to revive teammates since a player's vision will be blurred in the cloud while they continuously take damage.

Meanwhile, the Nebula V Bomb will be an extremely rare item in the form of a locked briefcase full of deadly gas.

When the bomb is activated it will detonate after a small countdown which cannot be interrupted - the explosion will deal a huge amount of damage as gas spreads throughout the area, lasting for two minutes.

Armoured Transport Trucks
The new Armoured Trucks are like something out of a Bond film (Activision)

New vehicles are being deployed into Caldera in the form of monolithic trucks equipped with their own machine-gun turrets.

Like something out of a Bond movie, these trucks also drop mines behind them and can call aerial support when reduced to low health.

And if that's not enough, once the truck is destroyed it will drop a variety of valuable items, including the new Nebula V bomb in certain cases.

Caldera Clash
The new game modes will add more variety to the playlist rotation (Activision)

Caldera Clash has been developed by High Moon Studios and pits 48 Operators (divided into quads) in a Deathmatch that includes a variety of events and power-ups.

Rebirth Iron T rial Duos

This game mode will be a battle royale variant that caters to the highly-competitive players.

It will feature its own ser of weaponry as well as rule changes such as an increased time-to-kill to make every fight more difficult.

Vanguard

Ranked mode

Vanguard will be receiving its own Ranked mode with league-approved rules, visible Skill Ratings, and new competitive rewards.

New maps
Casablanca is set in a small Morrocan market (Activision)

Season Two will be bringing two maps to Vanguard's Multiplayer modes in the form of Casablanca and Gondola which will both be available at launch.

Casablanca is set in Morroco and hosts a variety of buildings and a bustling marketplace to create a variety of playstyle options.

Gondola has a much colder setting than the sun-kissed Morroco and even includes gondolas to traverse through the area.

New Perks and Killstreak

Vanguard will also be receiving two Perks, a lethal grenade and a new Killstreak which will all be free in the Battle Pass.

The Ball Turret Gunner Killstreak will be available once players a 12 killstreak and provides the opportunity to rain down a flurry of bullets onto opponents who dare stay out in the open.

The Sticky Bomb does exactly what it says on the label, if you can land a direct hit you don't have to worry about the enemy running away.

Among the two new perks being added to the game include Armory and Mechanic.

Armory will allow players to set down Demolition Charges, concussion mines, and placeable Field equipment pieces.

Mechanic provides a buff to Field Upgrade charge times.
