Today Activision and Infinity Ward revealed new information about the upcoming shooters Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty Warzone 2. From a new card for war zone to new modes in MIIhere are some of the biggest and most interesting things we learned from the call of Duty Next showcase.
Call of Duty next big battle royale, war zone 2
- The next big evolution of cod Battle royale is war zone 2which launches on November 16, 2022 and will be free to play like the first war zone. While this new game is being developed with next-gen hardware in mind, it will also be releasing on PS4 and Xbox One.
- war zone 2that Activision is calling “Warzone 2.0‘ will launch with an entirely new map called Al Mazrah. This large desert also contains some large cities for players to fight in and explore.
- war zone 2 and Modern Warfare II will share both seasons, and progress will also be shared between both games.
- vehicles on war zone 2 now the gas will run out and you can shoot their tires.
- There’s a new gulag war zone 2. (This is the area you go to when you die for the first time in the game.) This time, the Gulag will match players with another person, and they will work together to defeat two other players and earn their chance return to the fight.
- Interesting, war zone 2 changes the battle royale formula by implementing multiple circles. This will result in players being separated for a while before eventually coming circles together for a more traditional battle royale finale.
- Infinity Ward says matches will contain 120 players and no bots. That’s a lot of people to kill. (Or to avoid.)
New details too Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II
- Spec Ops is back. This was a fan-favorite mode seen in older versions cods and in 2019 modern warfare. And it returns again for this new modern warfare Rate. As before, it will feature two-player co-op experiences. People will work together to explore enemy-infested “hot zones” and complete objectives against an enemy the developers haven’t revealed yet. This mode will be available at launch on October 28th.
- The dolphin dive is back. They can also swim, envelop, and hang themselves from ledges. Previous methods of locomotion like tactical sprinting are also back, but have been refined and improved.
- Modern Warfare II will apparently have raids. These will be three-player co-op experiences that sound similar to raids determination. Infinity Ward didn’t say much about this new mode during the event and it won’t be released until after the game’s launch in October.
- Seen in the original for the first time Modern Warfare IIThird-person online matches and playlists are making a comeback in this reboot.
- Some major modes now support AI players. Charlie Intel reports If you kill an AI player in Invasion, the game will make it clear that you killed a bot and not a real player.
