Homelander, Starlight and Black Noir are set to arrive in Call of Duty: Mobile on May 27 at 5 PM PT, and the money question is already clear: the headline cosmetics are tied to three Draws, not a simple free unlock. If you want the full crossover set, this is the kind of drop that pushes you toward COD Points before you even load in.

Season 5 is officially titled Revenge, and it launches alongside the The Boys collaboration. The official CODM blog says the season brings three Draws led by Homelander, Starlight and Black Noir, plus two themed game modes, a themed event with more than a dozen rewards, Armored Royale, the BAL-27 Assault Rifle, Double COD Points offers, a new Battle Pass, and the Kui Ji Mythic Operator. The practical takeaway is blunt: the biggest crossover items are being packaged as premium content, while the event track is where the free or lower-cost rewards should live.

The timing is deliberate. The Boys season 5 premiered on April 8, 2026 and ended with its finale on May 20, 2026, which puts the CODM crossover one week after the show wrapped its final season. That gives the mobile event a clean runway with fan attention already locked onto Homelander, Starlight and Black Noir, and it explains why Call of Duty is leaning so hard into this partnership now.

The crossover is not just a set of skins sitting in the store. Call of Duty is building it into gameplay with Supe’d Up Attack of the Undead in multiplayer and Vought Royale in battle royale. In the mode preview, Starlight triggers a shockwave that slows zombies, Black Noir pulls a katana and gains movement speed with eliminations, and Homelander hovers while firing laser eyes with an overheat meter. That makes the crossover feel much bigger than a single operator bundle, and it also makes the Draws easier to justify if you care about more than cosmetics.

The catch is cost. The official blog points players to Double COD Points and Web Store offers to acquire the new content, which strongly suggests the marquee operators will sit behind paid pulls. The themed event’s dozen-plus rewards may soften the blow, but anyone chasing the full Homelander, Starlight and Black Noir lineup should plan for a premium spend when Revenge goes live on May 27.
