Exclusive Sneak Peek: Unveiling the Ultimate Collection of Maps in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Highlights

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be a direct sequel to last year's game, featuring a campaign with familiar faces and intense firefights.

The multiplayer mode in Modern Warfare 3 will undo the contentious alterations introduced in Modern Warfare 2, reinstating red dots on the minimap and slide canceling.

When the game is released, it will feature 16 updated maps from 2009's Modern Warfare 2, such as the fan-favorites Highrise, Terminal, and Rust. Furthermore, there are plans to introduce additional new maps after the initial launch.

After months of speculation and speculation, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was finally announced last week, confirming many of the leaked details. Sledgehammer Games is indeed the developer behind this year's edition, serving as a direct sequel to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The campaign will bring back familiar characters, adding to the excitement. However, a game like Modern Warfare 3 is only as good as its multiplayer mode, and fortunately, it seems like the multiplayer aspect will meet expectations.

Last year's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 introduced significant and controversial changes to the traditional Call of Duty multiplayer experience. These changes included the removal of red dots on the minimap and slide canceling. In response to the negative feedback received, it appears that Activision has taken note, as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is set to reverse nearly all of MW2's alterations. Along with these adjustments, Modern Warfare 3 will feature a total of 16 6v6 maps upon launch, promising intense firefights reminiscent of past experiences.

The launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will feature a collection of 16 6v6 maps, all of which are remastered versions of the popular maps from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 released in 2009. This impressive lineup includes beloved classics such as Highrise, Terminal, Quarry, Favela, Estate, and the infamous dueling spot known as Rust. Additionally, lesser-known maps like Karachi, Rundown, and Derail will also be included in the game. It is worth noting that many of these maps have undergone remastering before, appearing in various Call of Duty titles with slight modifications or even complete redesigns. Recently, these iconic Modern Warfare 2 maps were incorporated into Call of Duty: Warzone as points of interest on its Al Mazrah map. For instance, Highrise can be found nestled between two skyscrapers, Rust emerges in a desert setting, and Quarry takes up a prominent position at the top of the map.

Each classic map in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has undergone a complete makeover. These maps have not only received a fresh coat of high-resolution paint, but also various new features like functional doors on select maps. The aim is to strike the right balance between offering a modern experience while retaining the essence and identity of the original maps.

Sledgehammer Games has confirmed the addition of four large-scale maps to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 upon its launch. Although no specific details have been provided, the game will include three Ground War/Invasion maps at launch, along with a dedicated map for the MW3 War game mode, which is making a comeback after a six-year absence. Furthermore, Sledgehammer has promised a total of 12 brand new 6v6 maps will be added to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 post-launch, although an exact date hasn't been announced yet.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 launches November 10 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
