A brand new weapon blueprint has been introduced in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. However, it’s not a regular addition at all. What makes it unique is the fact it’s literally based on a now-popular meme across the COD community. Following the rumors of its existence, it’s finally available in the game as part of a bundle named ‘Update Requires Restart.’

Modern Warfare 3 has witnessed multiple bundles since its release last year. Players have got crossover skins featuring sports players, characters from other game franchises, musicians and even Pizza parlors. Now, it’s time for a blend of meme culture and an iconic Call of Duty game from nearly a decade ago.

The pack in question is the Arcade Rhythm bundle. But due to the famous meme attached to it, most players will refer to it as ‘Update Requires Restart’ bundle. Currently, it’s available in Modern Warfare 3’s in-game store. Yes, players will have to purchase it since it’s not a part of any event where one can unlock it as a free reward by finishing a challenge.

Players can unlock the bundle for 2,400 COD Points or $19.99. But what’s so special about its content?

The bundle features 2014’s Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare on a gun. It’s got a small handheld game console embedded that displays Advanced Warfare’s loading screen. Unfortunately, the screen suddenly cuts to a message that reads, “Update Requires Restart.” The latter is the same message many COD players have received while booting up recent titles – hence, the meme.

Apart from the meme factor, though, Arcade Rhythm has got lucrative rewards for a price of 2,400 COD Points. Below is the list of all the items players can own after purchasing this bundle:

  • ‘High Score Doc’ Operator Skin
  • ‘Arcade Rhythm Rival 9’ Weapon Blueprint
  • ‘Coin Feeder MTZ Interceptor’ Weapon Blueprint
  • ‘Ways to Unwind’ Calling Card
  • ‘Rocket Commander’ Weapon Sticker
  • ‘Arcade Rhythms’ Weapon Charm
  • ‘I Win’ Loading Screen
  • ‘Retro Cabinet’ Emblem

Moreover, the two weapon blueprints for Rival 9 and MTZ also include Tracers. Which means they will give a unique visual treat to players when they take down the enemies. While the tracer effect is called ‘Arcade CRT’, the dismemberment effect is called ‘Pixeleted.’
