Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming Call of Duty drop:

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

A new practice area is being added, so that players can try out new weapons before the season officially starts.

Modern Warfare 2’s campaign story is being updated with a new mission called Special Ops, designed to be taken on with a friend.

A raid mission will also be introduced that’s designed for trios.

Two maps are returning from the Modern Warfare reboot, namely Shoot House and Shipment.

Hardcore mode will make its comeback, as well as the Combat Record finally being added.

A battle pass is coming, including four new weapons, and six new operators to play as. The weapons are two assault rifles, a sniper rifle, and a SMG.

The six operators are Gaz, Zeus and Klaus, as well as famous footballers, Pogba, Neymar and Messi.

Warzone 2.0

Warzone is back and will feature a new large-scale map called Al-Mazrah. Custom loadouts will also return.

Aquatic combat is being introduced, and new vehicles will be added, all of which will use fuel as you drive them.

Warzone will include the traditional battle royale solos, as well as duos, trios, and quads, but there will also be a new DMZ mode.

DMZ mode will feature extraction missions that take place on a larger map.

Alongside the change to MW2, you will also be able to play Warzone 2.0 in third-person.

Warzone Caldera

Just because Warzone 2.0 is releasing, it doesn’t mean that Warzone Caldera is disappearing.

The game will take a short hiatus while Warzone 2.0 launches, but then it will return.

Cross-play will be added, but experience from Warzone 2.0 and Modern Warfare 2 will not be shared.

Some of the larger maps will be removed but a new playlist will be added to the smaller maps.
