The newest installment of the enduringly successful Call of Duty game is being eagerly anticipated as its release date approaches.
Okay, so maybe I started off a little too dramatically, especially since the annual release of a Call of Duty game is about as normal as getting out of bed on a Monday and doing your best Donald the Duck impression in the restroom.
One of the many epic sagas that have grown in the gaming industry is the Call of Duty franchise. The 2009 release Modern Warfare 2, which is praised for its intense multiplayer combat and classic level designs, is one of the games that left a long-lasting impression. Moving on, there are reports in the gaming community that all of the cherished MW2 2009 maps will be included in Modern Warfare 3 in 2023.
Anticipations and Concerns Surrounding Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III Remake
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that this year will see the release of a new Call of Duty game, this time in the form of Modern Warfare III, a remake of the original 2011 title. Fans may be anticipating its release with enthusiasm, but there are some issues they have.
The fact that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, which was originally intended to be an expansion for MWII (2022), eventually evolved into a separate title. Additionally, many are worried that MWIII would charge a full RRP despite its alleged origins. However, if there is one significant selling point for Modern Warfare III, it is the fact that, in a first for the franchise, the majority of the DLC and progression data from MWII (2022) multiplayer will carry over into MWIII. There are rumors that the zombie’s mode will make a comeback in this year’s game.
Additionally, depending on your point of view, we have some additional positive news. All of the multiplayer maps from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009) will reportedly be remastered for Modern Warfare III, according to the CharlieIntel Call of Duty fan account on Twitter. CharlieIntel is regarded as a trustworthy source of information, yet we should proceed with caution when making assumptions about the future. It’s time to wreak some mayhem, so Favela lovers, prepare the shotguns and riot shields!
Remastered Maps in Modern Warfare III
If rumours about the remastered maps are accurate, Modern Warfare III would presumably contain the following maps from MWII in addition to those that were in the first Modern Warfare 3:
- Afghan
- Derail
- Estate
- Favela
- Highrise
- Invasion
- Karachi
- Quarry
- Rundown
- Rust
- Scrapyard
- Skidrow
- Sub Base
- Terminal
- Underpass
- Wasteland
Other sources currently indicate that access to the maps is not available directly. Despite assuming a package with a higher price tag will include it, people are noting the exorbitant cost of MW3. It is questionable whether paying a high premium for nostalgia is a wise investment, especially given the likelihood that the competitive environment won’t make use of the old maps.
Leaked Details Suggest Impending Release of Classic Modern Warfare 2 Maps in Modern Warfare II DLC Upgrades
A “trustworthy” messenger informed them that these maps are somewhere in the drafts for impending Modern Warfare II DLC upgrades, according to Twitter user TheGhostOfHope, who has a reputation for being a fairly reputable source for leaks. Infinity Ward plans to release all or nearly all of the Modern Warfare 2 (2009) maps at once when they release Modern Warfare II (2022). Very likely, this contains material from Year 2,” they said.
If every map in Modern Warfare II makes the transition to the most recent version, this would include Afghan, Derail, Estate, Favela, Highrise, Invasion, Karachi, Quarry, Rundown, Rust, Scrapyard, Skidrow, Sub Base, and Terminal.
TheGhostOfHope is currently developing a multiplayer map DLC featuring “other classic maps from Infinity Ward, Treyarch, & Sledgehammer’s catalog,” which will constitute a “greatest hits” collection. Players undoubtedly have fond memories of strewn about erratically on these levels, so it’s understandable that this potential leak has some people on edge. The paid portion of the DLC, though, has some people worried that it may divide the players.
One said, “Release a paid legacy map pack to [reward/celebrate] long-time supporters of the franchise, in a game that does absolutely everything it can to punish and drive away diehard fans.” We’ll keep you updated as soon as we learn more, but it’s crucial to bear in mind that nothing is verified as of yet.
Since there are still two months until the launch, it’s crucial to note that these leaks have not yet been verified. In addition, a lot can (and probably will) change in the run-up to November 10. When the game’s official debut in Warzone takes place later this week on August 17, we shall learn more.
Final Thoughts
In anticipation of the upcoming release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, fans of the franchise find themselves at the crossroads of excitement and concern. This new installment, a remake of the beloved 2011 title, carries both promising prospects and lingering worries. While some anxiously await the return of classic maps from Modern Warfare 2, others question the price tag and potential division within the player base. The transition of DLC and progression data from its predecessor brings a novel dimension to the series, fostering hope for a more seamless gaming experience. Yet, the rumor of remastered maps and the inclusion of a zombie mode spark debates over the value of nostalgia and its potential impact on gameplay.
As November 10 draws nearer, leaks and speculations continue to circulate, reminding us that uncertainties remain. With the official debut in Warzone on August 17, the gaming community eagerly awaits more concrete information, hoping for a Modern Warfare III that both honors the past and paves the way for an engaging and unified future.
