There are good reasons to buy the Call of Duty: WWII Season Pass right now, but there are just as many reasons to hold off on spending another $50 on Call of Duty: WWII until we know more about what you will get and how that maps play.
If you want more than the base nine multiplayer maps and three War mode maps you will need to buy the Call of Duty: WWII DLC as standalone options or as part of the Season pass.
You will get regular Call of Duty: WWII updates that fine tune features and that may add some weapons and weapon variants to Supply Drops, but maps are only coming through the DLC.
The Resistance is out on PS4, Xbox One and PC and The War Machine is out on PS4 on April 10th and on May 10th for the Xbox One and PC. This gives you a good idea of what you can expect from Sledgehammer Games and sets you up for the rest of the DLC nicely. There are four DLC map packs total and you will get them first on PlayStation, but there is no way to play early like you can with some Battlefield DLC.
You can buy a special Call of Duty: WWII edition with the Season Pass, or the Season Pass or just buy the DLC packs you want individually, though that can limit the matchmaking later in the game’s life. The Season Pass is $49.99 and available in stores and digitally on your console or PC.

We're seeing a new Call of Duty, or rather a return to a more classic Call of Duty game and while things could change with updates, if you are hooked on this game, buy the Season Pass now.
