Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 2 Reloaded content

The last few weeks have been hectic for the game developers, especially due to the Cruise Missile and other minor glitches in the game, which left players frustrated with the franchise.

Nonetheless, Call Of Duty hopes to redeem themselves with the upcoming additions in the Season 2 Reloaded update for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone.

Multiplayer – New Modes, 6v6 Map, and Weapons

Apart from the new daily challenges and objectives, here’s a brief overview of what to expect in the Multiplayer department:

  • Das Haus: Multiplayer 6V6 Map
  • Two new modes: Bounty and Juggermosh
  • Two new loadouts: Soulrender and SOA Subverter Battle Rifle.

New POI, Field Upgrade, and Killstreak in Warzone

For the Warzone fans, this Season is going to be worth it. Here’s a brief overview of what to expect:

  • Bunker Buster: The Bunker Buster is a new Killstreak in which players can challenge opponents in closed buildings. All they have to do is take out their binoculars and target the occupied building. A missile will be unleashed on the enemy players whose radiation will spread across multiple stories of the building, along with a poisonous gas.
  • Portable Decontamination Station: The PDS creates a safe zone for all players who’ve equipped it, allowing them to escape the closing circle’s gas for a while. It can be used in multiple locations—in water, at the Buy Station, and can be attached to one’s vehicle.
  • Research Vessel POI: This new POI can be used in Fortune’s Keep as an excellent place to scout the shorelines.
