Meanwhile, fans can enjoy this year’s brand-new COD installment from Activision. Sledgehammer’s Modern Warfare 3 is set to release next month across the globe. Before its official debut, the game is going through a Beta phase right now. Players have access to popular modes like Multiplayer and also an open-world Zombies experience.

Following its launch, Modern Warfare 3 will offer a traditional Campaign, similar to previous titles. This time, however, there’s a unique feature coming with the single-player mode. Sledgehammer’s team has introduced something called open-combat missions with MW3. It will add a touch of open-world style to the linear approach of completing story quests.

Speaking of Multiplayer, there will be 16 remastered maps coming from 2009’s Modern Warfare 2. To name a few, fans will be able to revisit areas like Favela, Rust, Skidrow, Highrise, Afghan, Scrapyard, and Estate. Not to mention the refined movement mechanics and a total overhaul of the gameplay experience. Moving onto Zombies mode, it will be based on a PvE format. Players will need to fight large hordes of the undead inside the map of Urzikstan. They will need to finish certain objectives, loot items, and extract successfully.

Coming back to Call of Duty’s appearance on Xbox Game Pass, fans will have to wait for another year to know all the details.
