When Does Black Ops Cold War season 1 start?

As confirmed during the conference call on 29th October, Black Ops Cold War Season 1 will release in December, alongside Warzone's integration with Black Ops Cold War.

This will happen about a month after the game releases, which means that we can expect Season 1 to start sometime during the second week of December.

Black Ops Cold War Season 1 battle pass features 

During the conference call on 29th October, it has been confirmed that progression and monetisation system in Black Ops Cold War will be the same as the one found in Modern Warfare.

This means that there will be no Season Pass, but instead, each season will introduce a new Battle Pass, with both free and paid tiers and rewards.

While it is not yet been announced it is likely that, like the Modern Warfare battle passes, it will have 100 tiers.

Cost

The pricing for the battle pass has not yet been released but again we can look to Modern Warfare for an idea of what to expect.

The MW battle pass costs $10. You can also purchase a bundle that automatically unlocks the first 20 tiers for $24. Skipping any single tier costs $1.50.
