MODERN WARFARE III OVERVIEW (MWIII)
CONTENT SUMMARY
- Blood-soaked Maps and More: Get a bite to eat in the new killer clown-themed Drive Thru Multiplayer map and steak your claim as the king of the meats in the Mad Cow variant along with five other new map variants.
- Terrifying Modes: Play a scary twist on Infected and fight back the undead with the return of Hordepoint. Power up your Operator with super weapons in Arcade and embrace the change in Mutation.
Expect more screaming than laughing as you navigate the decaying forecourt of Funny’s Fried Fun restaurant, then wade through a real house of horrors as the Meat variant Mad Cow map offers foul flooded waters and a real sense of dread amongst the beef. Then prepare for more Shipment than ever before!
Drive Thru (Launch)
Brand-New, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
Order up some mayhem at Funny’s Fried Fun! This killer clown-themed restaurant features its own moving carousel circling views of the dining area and parking lot. Defending the central building won’t be easy, with entry points on all sides.
Get behind the kitchen counter — whatever you do, don’t look at the food — or slip back outside to fight along the perimeter. Don’t linger too long, or you might join the missing persons list posted on the wall out front. Did we mention to please not eat the meat?
Mad Cow (Launch)
Variant, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
You’re next on the chopping block in this slaughterhouse from hell featuring the grisliest meat in the Bay Area. The whole map has flooded, forcing Operators to battle through the muck inside and out.
Dive down into the thickest parts of to hide from passing enemies and keep your cool when battling near the murals depicting mad bulls. Make one wrong move and risk joining the body bag lying in the kill room.
Five New Shipment Variants! (Launch)
Variants, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
The legendary Shipment map returns in five additional variations! Whether you’re here for a bloody good time (Ghost Ship), ready to perfect your weapons training (Arena Shipment), looking for clear skies ahead (Sunny Shipment), or a more squared-off Shipment experience (Bit-ment), there’s a Shipment variant ready for you. Needing retro-futuristic visuals with your small map chaos? Then enter “Stay High”, the weirdest Shipment of them all….
Arena Shipment (Launch)
Variant, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
Deploy to a weapons training course sponsored by the biggest names in defense alongside local companies like East Bay Meats. The arena is divided between the green and orange sides with shooting targets scattered throughout. Move to the center to get into the thick of it or take advantage of the outer obstacles to fight from the sidelines.
Stay High (Launch)
Variant, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
Get weird in this variant of Shipment featuring bright colors across an assortment of stacked blocks, dissipating as they rise upward to the infinite sky above. Stacks of old CRT televisions and VHS players offer some cover throughout, all set to the same tuned out channels. Stay focused and try not to get lost in the static.
Bit-ment (Launch)
Variant, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
Head to the South Pixel Sea in Bit-Ment, boasting old-school visuals and an eerie overhead topography. Step into an open container to get out of the rain while ambushing enemy Operators and use every pixel available to stay alive while battling for the top of the scoreboard.
Ghost Ship (Launch)
Variant, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
What at first glance appears to be a normal neighborhood shrouded in fog soon reveals itself as the scene of a harrowing ritual. Strange glyphs shine on the ground and the surfaces of the center containers, chains and hooks hanging overhead. Outside the map’s borders, jack-o’-lanterns, a graveyard, and strange lights within the surrounding homes anticipate something more sinister than your typical haunting. Tread carefully.
Sunny Shipment (Launch)
Variant, Core, 6v6, Small-Sized
It’s a bright, clear day on the high seas in this Shipment variant, the perfect summer send off as we move into autumn. The sun’s glare results in more saturated colors including the vibrant blue of the surrounding waters. Lather on some sunscreen and whistle while you work.
First introduced in Call of Duty: WWII (2017), Hordepoint returns to Modern Warfare III! Capturing the Hardpoint and defending against the attacking team might sound familiar, but that’s not the end of the story in this twisted version of the classic Hardpoint Mode. You’re fighting against both the living and the undead in Hordepoint, fending off your enemies plus a horde of bloodthirsty zombies!
Game Mode: Arcade
Arcade returns, enhancing Operators with abilities like increased jump height and the ability to Ground Slam into opponents. Dominate your foes by seizing power weapons including the Sledgehammer with an increased knockback effect, an explosive MORS Sniper Rifle, and other enhanced weaponry for the taking.
Use your Forcefield ability to defend against the onslaught; activate it to create a transparent bubble around the player that defends against incoming bullets until it breaks after taking enough damage. Balance attack and defense and crush your enemies.
Game Mode: Mutation
Embrace the change — no matter how unnatural — with the return of Mutation mode. Take turns playing as a team of humans or mutants in a moshpit of modes. Human Operators spawn with increased ammo reserves and can earn Killstreaks to help fight back the mutant threat.
Mutants forego traditional Loadouts for one of four unique classes:
- Mutated Leaper: Leap at your enemies and become enraged, gaining faster movement speed and melee damage along with the ability to detect enemies around corners. Toss a Snapshot Grenade to reveal foes to your team.
- Radioactive Beast: Charge your enemies as a half dog, half demon. Howl to improve the health and movement speed of your allies and use your enhanced senses to reveal nearby enemies on the minimap.
- Contaminated Sludger: The Sludger obscures sightlines with a Smoke Grenade and can attack enemies with a close-ranged acid blast that pools on the ground and slows its victims. Explode in a large radius of mutant sludge, taking your foes down with you.
- Camouflaged Sneaker: Become partially invisible and stun and slow enemies with a lethal energy projectile. When it’s time to break stealth and attack, scramble at your enemies with an electrified leap.
Mutants who amass a high elimination count may even get the chance to pursue their targets as the monstrous Mutant Juggernaut.
Game Mode: Infected
Infected returns with The Haunting twist, as infected players attempt to dispatch the living with their claws and throwing knives. One player is chosen at random to spawn in as the infected, tasked with eliminating the human survivors to turn them to their cause. The still-living must use the tools at their disposal to keep their lives intact.

MODERN WARFARE ZOMBIES OVERVIEW (MWZ)
CONTENT SUMMARY
- Free Rift Runs: Complete Free Dark Aether Rift Runs without the need to offer up a Sigil. Survive to access powerful schematics plus earn a boatload of XP and other rewards.
- Double Schematic Recovery: Head into battle armed to the teeth as schematics take only half as long to recharge throughout the season.
Join the Zombies Celebration
To celebrate the final season of Modern Warfare Zombies, and as a thank you to all our Zombies players this year, we’re amping up the fun with two major season-long advantages. First, all Operators will be able to access Free Dark Aether Rift Runs for free — after completing the initial mission that unlocks them — without the need to offer up a Sigil.
Plus, all schematics will recover twice as quickly.
CALL OF DUTY: WARZONE OVERVIEW (WZ)
CONTENT SUMMARY
- New Terrifying Terrain: Watch your step around the living tentacles slithering across Rebirth Island in Hellspawn and battle under a blood moon as night descends on Vondel.
- Brave Purgatory, Zombie Royale LTMs: Cheat death in the new Purgatory LTM where anything goes and face off against the undead with the return of Zombie Royale.
The Haunting: Hellspawn Map Variant (Rebirth Island, Launch)
The hellmouth has opened over Rebirth Island as devilish tentacles slither their way around the gore-soaked island. A strange mist hangs in the air. The ocean appears blood-red, and the rocky coastal outcrops feature unsettling crimson vegetation.
Steel yourself against the hellacious scares that await you around every corner in this terrifying reimagining of Rebirth Island. Venture into the prison itself – if you dare – and discover foul anomalies across the walls, and ominous shadows around the lighthouse…
The unnatural red waters of the Factory and dockyards, along with fleshy growths smothering the walls and machinery mean Hellspawn is not for the faint of hearted. You may not know what’s creeping up behind you… until it’s too late!
As lightning crackles down from the spinning hellmouth, there are further grotesque locations to explore. Rooms lit with eerie lights, something fleshy in the garage, and threats around almost every corner. Dare you enter Hellspawn?
The Haunting: Vondel Night (Vondel, Launch)
The sun once again sets on Vondel as the moon casts lights and long shadows over the city and its canals. Battle under the cover of night from the Castle to the Cruise Terminal and secure victory via expert navigation of the map’s extensive waterways.
There’s lots of fun to be had in Purgatory, a new squad-based LTM taking place on the Hellspawn map variant featuring a sandbox setting where squads can battle and complete objectives at their own pace. Custom Loadouts are always available, and all Operators receive infinite respawns.
The mode supports a variety of interesting mechanics to enjoy during your long stay, including:
Insane Powerups: Purgatory features excellent loot including powerful Weapon Blueprints and plentiful Killstreaks. Find and equip super weapons from the Arcade mode and gain enhanced abilities from Mutation.
Portals: Peer into the image of a portal to see where it will take you. Step inside to transport there.
Flying Shipment: In this strange environment, Shipment flies over the island on a drivable platform, accessible via parachute, helicopter, and by portal.
Chill in the Safe Zone: Move into a designated Safe Zones to take a break from combat and chill with other Operators. Safe Zones are easily identified by the translucent dome enclosing them. Inside the dome, Operators enter third-person perspective and are unable to deal or deceive damage.
Hang out, adjust your Loadout, and commend other players you encounter inside the Safe Zone to earn XP and meet new friends.
Torment Level: Eliminating enemies increases your Torment Level. The higher your Torment Level, the more XP you earn per elimination. But the advantage comes at a cost: as your Torment Level increases, so does your presence on the enemy minimap, increasing your visibility to enemy players.
Scare Packages: Dropped in various locations throughout the match, Scare Packages include powerful loot and some unexpected side effects. Seek them out and roll the dice…
Terriball: You’ll need to be quick on your feet around Terriballs. They spawn around the map and are found in Scare Packages, too. Shoot, melee, or run into a Terriball to send it flying, instantly eliminating any Operator it hits.
Squads can achieve a victory condition. Eliminate enemies and commend your peers to progress during your stay in the afterlife.
Zombie Royale (Limited Time Mode, Hellspawn/Vondel Night, Launch)
Fall and rise again as the undead in Zombie Royale. Eliminated Operators will become zombies, giving you the chance to seek revenge while taking out any other living Operators you encounter on the way. Zombies gain unique abilities like faster movement speed, stronger melee attacks, advanced vision, a charged jump and more.

DTIR 30-06 (Battle Rifle, Launch, Battle Pass Sector 6)
Levels: 20, Battle Pass Blueprint [Sector 20]
Eliminate long-range threats with this slow-firing and hard-hitting battle rifle chambered in .30-06.
Steady and powerful, this Battle Rifle works wonders in the hands of a skilled Operator. Its slow fire rate helps you conserve ammo and stay on target, inflicting heavy damage with each shot. Its strong base model gives you plenty of control when building the weapon out in Gunsmith. Throw on a scope to keep enemies at a distance, bulk up its ammo reserves with a larger magazine, and improve its handling speeds with an assortment of ergonomic designs.
Kastov LSW (Light Machine Gun, Launch, Battle Pass Sector 9)
Levels: 18, Battle Pass Blueprint [Sector 14]
With its best-in-class fire rate and Tac Stance accuracy, this LMG was crafted to tear enemies through at short to medium range.
Shirking the traditional role of an LMG, the Kastov LSW encourages closing the distance to your targets by pairing a high fire rate with incredible accuracy in Tactical Stance. The weapon also sports a fast reload speed so you can get right back into the action after exhausting its hefty 100 round default magazine. Use Gunsmith to further enhance the LMG, from improving Tac Stance accuracy even more to building it out for longer ranged play with attachments extending its damage range and bullet velocity.
Three New Aftermarket Parts (Launch, MWIII, MWZ, WZ, WZM)
Complete Weekly Challenges to earn the three Season 6 Aftermarket Parts including an explosive modification for the KATT-AMR Sniper Rifle, as well as a pressurized magazine that fires three ballistic rivets for the MX Guardian Shotgun (above), and more.
WZM Connected: All Season 6 Aftermarket Parts are also unlockable throughout the season by spending Arsenal Coins in the Arsenal Store (Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile only), after which they can be used across all games.
JAK Salvo
Compatibility: KATT-AMR Sniper Rifle [MWIII]
A sniper modification that fires anti-materiel explosive rockets that deal significant explosive damage.
JAK Voltstorm (above)
Compatibility: Stormender Launcher [MWIII]
High-voltage electricity is cycled through copper coils and discharged in a lethal bolt capable of hitting multiple targets.
JAK Lance
Compatibility: MX Guardian Shotgun [MWII]
A pressurized magazine that fires three ballistic rivets, one per magazine rotation. Pressure builds while the weapon is idle until the maximum output is reached. At critical pressure, velocity, and precision are vastly improved.
BlackCell and Battle Pass
A three-headed, zombified mutation stalks the Season 6 BlackCell offering with the introduction of Alone, featuring an animated Operator Skin over a static surface. Alone is accompanied by other BlackCell Operators Skins within the Battle Pass, featuring a classic grayscale look that would fit perfectly in a black and white horror film.
BlackCell owners can enter the Season 6 Battle Map through the exclusive BlackCell Sector, instantly unlocking 20 Battle Token Tier Skips and the following items:

- New “Alone” Operator

Mountaineer Skin: Instant Reward Sector
No incline is too steep for Farah, no journey too long. Equipped with a full load of mountaineering and backpacking gear, the fearless Operator is prepared to traverse the most inhospitable terrain in pursuit of her objective. Whether she’s using her surveillance gear to gather intel or scaling cliffsides to ambush enemy targets, she’s ready for whatever lies ahead.
Michael Myers (KorTac, Launch)
The legendary slasher himself, Michael Myers, has arrived in Call of Duty and he’s ready to decimate anyone who gets in his way. The iconic monster among men and terrorizer of Haddonfield stalks the AO with a horrifying and callous pursuit of blood. Lock your doors. Hide in the bushes. Michael is coming.
Slamfire (SpecGru, Launch)
Operator and Skin: Sector 11
You’ll wish you were friends with jocks like Slamfire when the monsters come calling. Equipped with sporting goods and a mean-looking sledgehammer at his back, #33 is as comfortable on the field as he is battling the horrors ahead.
