Modern Warfare 2’s Special Ops mode will add three-play Raids in December
Activision has revealed new details about Modern Warfare 2’s post-launch content roadmap, including plans to introduce multiplayer Raids for the game’s Special Ops mode in December.
The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 release date is October 28, but players who pre-order the digital version of the game will be granted early access to its campaign starting on October 20.
The game’s release will be followed by a pre-season period in which players can level up to unlock weapons, attachments, base Loadout items, and progress through the Special Ops tier system.
Modern Warfare 2’s first season of live content will then launch on November 16 alongside Warzone 2.0 and the new DMZ mode.
“The very first episode of Raids” will debut with the Season 1 Reloaded patch on December 14, which will also include a “legendary multiplayer map” and the first major Warzone 2.0 update, Activision said today,
It previously described Raids as “a whole new experience for the franchise — a three- player cooperative engagement requiring teamwork and strategic, puzzle-solving thinking in-between bouts of intense combat”. And today it also called them “a direct continuation of the Campaign”.
Raids will form part of Modern Warfare 2’s co-op Special Ops mode, which will include three missions when the game is released in October, all taking place in Al Mazrah, which is also the main region for Warzone 2.0.
Bad Situation is a stealth-focused mission which challenges players to “infiltrate a town in the dead of night to uncover intel and evidence left behind by Al Qatala before exfiltrating”.
Vehicle Escape tasks players with destroying a series of SAM turrets preventing reinforcements from entering the battlefield, before racing to reach an exfiltration plane.
