What are the Warzone season 5 Stadium changes?
Perhaps the biggest change coming in Season 5 Warzone is the opening/destruction of the Stadium. The concept is that in previous seasons, players couldn’t enter the Stadium. Only landing on it and looting around it was possible. However, there are teasers in which a small bomb could possibly blast it open, allowing players to enter the Stadium and fight inside the compound.

Call of Duty has also added some speculation to this. They recently put up a post on Twitter asking fans to suggest names to the Stadium.
