The CR-56 Amax is one of the fan-favorite weapons in Warzone. Speaking from personal experience, this new AR will change the weapons meta in COD Mobile Season 5.
The other weapon teased in the social media post is the S725 Shotgun from Modern Warfare.
Players can acquire the new CR-56 Amax as a free reward by ranking up their Battle Pass to level 21. As for the S725, players can unlock it by completing the seasonal or featured challenge, whenever it is released.

Players can also expect that Activision will add numerous other bundles and crates with unique weapon skins in COD Mobile Season 5.
Data miners have reported that a new Legendary variant will be added for Type 25 in COD Mobile Season 5. It will be known as Type 25 - Magnetic Engine.
According to leaks, the Red Action series skins will be coming to COD Mobile Chinese version. This will feature gun skins for weapons like AS Val, Chopper and Man-O-War. However, there is no official confirmation whether the Red Action series will also feature in the global version of COD Mobile.

As for Roze, she was already introduced previously as a bundle in COD Mobile. This new skin from the Battle Pass will only add to her outfit collection.
Simon "Ghost" Riley will also make his much-anticipated return to the COD Mobile franchise after being brutally killed in a previous season. While he was assumed dead, a faction from the COD: Ghosts franchise kept him alive. Only Adler knew about Ghost surviving his ordeal with the Templar.
Recent leaks suggest that Ghost will return to the game in Season 5 as a purchasable Legendary character.
