While the big Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III reveal won’t happen until tomorrow, Activision and developer Sledgehammer have already confirmed a few details. They’re promising MWIII will deliver the CoD franchise’s “largest Zombies offering to date” and “new Open Combat missions.” What the latter might mean isn’t entirely clear, but speculation is MWIII will have some missions that take place on Warzone 2.0 maps. Here are some of the Modern Warfare III features Activision is teasing…
- With Carry Forward, players can continue to enjoy player inventory and weapon progression from last year’s Modern Warfare II into this year’s all-new, Modern Warfare III.
- Did someone say Zombies? More information coming soon on the new Modern Warfare Zombies: The largest Zombies offering to date.
- New Open Combat missions in Campaign; new Combat Vests and Perk system for customizing your Multiplayer Operator; new Tac-Stance movement; new After-Market Parts for unparalleled Gunsmith customization and more.
- One access point for your future Call of Duty content. Starting with Modern Warfare II and Warzone, and now with Modern Warfare III and beyond, players can navigate all their content in one place, we call it Call of Duty HQ – making it easier to select which game and modes you wish to play.
- New additions to Ricochet Anti-Cheat as well as new anti-toxicity plans to continue to deliver a fun, fair and welcoming online experience for all players.
- Roadmap of post launch live seasons of additional new content.
Interestingly, the new blog the above info was taken from also claims “our vision to deliver back-to-back Modern Warfare games has been years in the making,” but there have been indications that isn’t the case. Well-placed rumors stated that Modern Warfare III began as a major Modern Warfare II expansion, and until relatively recently Activision remained vague about their 2023 plans, simply stating "premium Call of Duty experiences" were slated for this year ("premium" is the label Activision attaches to traditional paid CoD content). Hopefully, Modern Warfare III's origins, whatever they might be, won't end up mattering as it does seem like the game will offer a good amount of content.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is launching on November 10. Presumably, the game will be coming to the same platforms at Modern Warfare II (PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PS5) although that hasn’t yet been confirmed.
