SANTA MONICA, Calif. — Dec. 3, 2019
– Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® Season One, featuring the new Battle
Pass as well as the largest free content offering in Call of Duty history,
is available now. Starting today with Season One, players across all platforms
can jump in together to play new multiplayer maps, modes, co-op experiences,
in-game events and more. In addition, the new Modern Warfare Battle Pass
System gives players more ways to customize their experience by earning new
content, including base weapons, weapon blueprints, weapon charms, and other
vanity items just by playing the game.
The Season One Battle Pass can be
purchased using Call of Duty Points unlocking access to up to 100 tiers
of new earnable content. Plus, players who complete the Battle Pass will
earn even more Call of Duty Points than the cost they paid for the pass
itself, delivering a ton of value. Players can also purchase the Battle Pass
Bundle which includes all the same earnable content plus 20 tier skips for
instant access to cool new equipment.
“Since Modern Warfare’s
launch it’s been great sharing a steady stream of new playable content, but
today’s launch of Season One takes things to a new level for all players. We’re
rolling out multiplayer maps like Crash, Vacant and Shipment; Gunfight maps Cargo,
Atrium, and Shipment; a Ground War map Port; three new multiplayer modes;
five new Special Ops experiences and two new weapons,” said Patrick Kelly,
Co-Studio Head and Creative Director, Infinity Ward. “This is the largest free
content drop in Call of Duty history, and we’re excited that
everyone can play all of this new Modern Warfare content
together across all platforms.”
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Season One
features a slew of free new content, including the below, available for all
players on all platforms. New content will be released weekly throughout Season
One.
- New Multiplayer Maps: Fan-favorite multiplayer map from Call
of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Crash is remastered and reimagined as a
helicopter crash site in Urzikstan, featuring all the flanking routes and
action-packed rooftop encounters you remember. But, that’s not
all. Joining Crash later in the season are two more reimagined maps from Call
of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, including Vacant, an abandoned office leading to
intense interior combat across the complex, and Shipment, where fast and
frenetic action reigns supreme.
- New 2v2 Gunfight Maps: Jump into fast-paced, intense 2v2
matches on the new Atrium map set in a Verdansk palace, and the new Cargo map,
an open-roof storage facility within the barge of a cargo container ship in the
London Docks. In addition, Shipment will also be available as a 2v2 Gunfight
map later in the season.
- New Ground War Map: Engage in epic all-out war squaring
off with 64 players on Port, a unique large-scale Ground War map set across
cargo containers, cranes, buildings, and streets.
- Classic Special Ops Experiences: In Pitch Black,
infil into Barkov’s vacant estate to recover and transmit all on-site intel to
your tactical rover. In Grounded, engage and eliminate Al Qatala militants who
have seized Barkov’s former airbase to steal weaponry and air assets. Bomb
Squad will arrive further into Season One, where Armistice Team 4 QRF must
defuse IEDs planted in an Urzikstan city before detonation.
- New Special Ops Operations: In Operation
Strongbox, use the crypto keys you’ve stolen to assault the bank, break into
the vault, and put The Banker out of business. In Operation Just Reward,
coming to all players later in the season, cut off Al Qatala’s money supply in
Verdansk and target the head of their financial operation by hacking the
Banker’s mobile data centers.
- New Multiplayer Game Modes: In Reinforce, a
hybrid mode between Domination, Search & Destroy, and Search & Rescue,
capture points to revive fallen teammates and take all points to win the round.
Further into Season One, additional modes will go live including Infected,
where it’s hunt or be hunted in the survival party game mode where eliminated
survivors become infected. In O.S.P. Gunfight, the same mechanics of
traditional Gunfight apply, with the distinct difference that players begin
each match with no weapons or equipment and must pick them up once the match
begins.
- New Weapons: Earnablefor free for all
players, the RAM-7 introduces a new fully automatic bullpup Assault Rifle,
while the Holger-26 is an LMG spec of the Holger model rifle.
The Season One Battle Pass can be
purchased for 1,000 COD points or players can upgrade to the Battle Pass Bundle
which includes 20 Tier Skips. Regardless of whether you choose to purchase your
Battle Pass, some of the tiers will include free Call of Duty points
that can be used in the store or for future Battle Pass purchases.
In addition to the Battle Pass,
players can also use Call of Duty Points to obtain bundles of items in
the store that will be updated weekly and contain multiple cosmetic items,
ranging from weapon blueprints, a new Operator, operator skins, as well as
various vanity accessories. For the most up to date information on Call of
