If Soap does come toCall of Duty: Modern Warfare, the most likely scenario is that he will come to the game as part of Season 6. Details on what exactlyModern WarfareSeason 6 will entail have yet to be revealed at the time of this writing, but each season has included a major new playable character. Most of Price’s squad that he mentions at the end of theModern Warfarecampaign have since been added, and so it’s not a stretch to assume that Soap could very well be next in line.
If Soap does come toCall of Duty: Modern WarfareSeason 6, he will likely have a slightly redesigned look and a new voice actor. Even so, fans can expect Soap’s general personality to remain intact if he shows up in the newModern Warfaregame.
Modern WarfareSeason 6 will likely have a lot more new content to look forward to besides just Soap, though. It’s quite likely that the next season will add new maps, guns, and game modes to the experience as well. And on theWarzoneside of things, it’s been leaked that theVerdansk battle royale map may be getting subway stationsadded as part of the Season 6 update.
More information onModern WarfareSeason 6 should come to light in the weeks ahead. For now, fans of the game can continue playing theSeason 5 Reloaded contentthat was added a couple of weeks back.
