Fans of the much-anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 have a little over a month before the game’s release date on 12 November. However, as much as fans are looking forward to this release, some have noticed a strange requirement that this shooter shares with another recent release, Overwatch 2.

It would appear that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will have the same telephone number requirement that’s been giving Overwatch 2 players issues. The issue isn’t linking a phone number; it’s that numbers on a prepaid network might not work. This issue is listed on Blizzard’s phone notifications page.

It clearly states that those playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 or those with newly created Overwatch 2 accounts will be required to enter a phone number to access the game.

If you plan to enjoy the game on PC through Steam, you’ll still face a similar issue. Valve states on the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 sales page that a telephone number will have to be linked to your account to access the game. However, Valve does not specify whether this number needs to be linked to a mobile plan or whether prepaid plans will have the same issues as other platforms.

So, why is this strange new requirement popping up? Blizzard announced that this number will be used to send players updates, news, and important messages about the game. However, this is not the main reason behind this move. The bigger reason is that it will help stop disruptive behaviors. Having a phone number with a mobile plan in place will be another way to keep banned players from simply creating another account to regain entry to the game.

While the above reason is a good one, we’re glad to know this requirement before the launch as it gives players and fans enough time to prepare. After seeing the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 gameplay trailer, we can’t wait for the release.

Activision has finally released the gameplay trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. At first glance, it looks nothing short of incredible. From next-gen graphics and hyper-realistic digital assets to the general feel of the trailer, it seems to suggest that when the game releases, it’s going to be an absolute belter

The trailer focuses quite heavily on what we take to be the game’s campaign mode and gives us hints of the storyline that we’ll be following. One rumor that has been gaining traction is that at the core of the new game is a war on terrorism and drugs. The trailer seems to confirm and add even more color to this theory.

It looks like we’ll be fighting a brutal global war on drugs and terrorism that’s usually not far removed from those situations. Another big detail that the trailer reveals is that  Bloodline and Ozark actor Glenn Morshower is returning to the franchise. He’ll be lending his likeness and voice to one of the main characters. 

The campaign of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II follows the events of its predecessors, Modern Warfare, Ghost, and Price. We’ll see the story of Task Force 141 unfold with returning as well as new cast members. 

If you’ve preordered Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II already or still intend to do so, you’ll be able to play the game a week earlier than everyone else. Preordered games will be playable from the 20th of October, 2022. The game will officially go live for the wider audience on the 28th of October, 2022. This is also not the only new Call of Duty title that Activision is releasing this year; we’ve also got Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 arriving in November.

As our resident fantasy author and gaming fanatic Shaun M Jooste says, one of the most exciting elements we’ve seen so far is the ability to engage in aquatic combat against vehicles and players. You can read the rest of his thoughts in our coverage of the initial Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 trailer.

It was a fun day for Call of Duty fans yesterday. During a NEXT reveal by Activision, the new footage shows upcoming features for Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone version 2.0. One of the most exciting elements is being able to dive into the water and employ aquatic combat against players and vehicles.

If you recall previous titles, landing in water would kill or respawn you. It looks like Activision is taking Modern Warfare 2 to the next level with the new swimming ability. Besides going underwater, you can also shoot other players or attack boats from the murky depths. 

Here’s the latest Modern Warfare 2 trailer with some images for Warzone:

It looks like these new features will be available in the Modern Warfare 2 beta. Besides water enhancements, the way you fight underwater will have a dramatic impact on movement and bullet speed. You’ll need to learn how to adapt to the new environments if you want to become a marine fighter. 

There are other tactical improvements. Sliding and diving are now options if you want to evade rapid gunfire. If you want to spy on your surroundings, you can hang onto a ledge and look over the top. It looks like these Modern Warfare 2 updates bring more stealth mechanics to the game, which means you’ll have to constantly watch your six and every other clock direction around you.

While the Modern Warfare 2 beta leak was a few months ago, it’s going to finally be available for PlayStation gamers today with Xbox and Pc following on September 22, 2022.  From the trailer, it’s clear we’re going to have plenty of action with new vehicles, maps, weapons, and more.

We’ve got numerous new leaks ahead of the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 – whether that was part of the plan or not. Activision recently hosted a private event to which it invited members of the Los Angeles Rams to try an early version of the game. We’re assuming that the publisher must have had some kind of NDA in effect for the duration of the event, but this didn’t stop some of the players from sharing priceless gameplay screenshots on Twitter.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 DOWNLOAD

The problematic tweets have subsequently been removed and replaced with generic event banner media, but not before industrious Twitter users were able to screenshot the images for further distribution. 

The first image is fairly innocuous – A simple shot of COD: MW2’s lobby. The lobby looks similar to other recent iterations of the Call of Duty franchise. Right at the top of the screen, you’ll see the various operational buttons such as Play, Operators, Weapons, and Barracks. These are exactly where you’d expect them – no pointless changes or innovations here.

To the right of these tabs, you’ll find the social menu, and the remainder of the screen is quite standard if you’re familiar with modern Call of Duty games. The lobby’s background looks fairly standard, too, proving that the trend of the animated lobby featuring various in-game characters is going nowhere anytime soon. 

There is one rather interesting aspect of the leak, however. As blurry as the image is, if you look at the game mode select screen, you’ll see the word DMZ. You might need to squint, but it’s there. If you’re not familiar with the term, DMZ is the name given to a rumored extraction royale game mode that some say will bear some resemblance to Escape from Tarkov. 

DMZ is a controversial topic within CoD forums. Some players don’t believe the game mode will be included in the game’s initial release, believing that is will instead form part of future paid DLC. Others say it’ll be a free-to-play component similar to Warzone 2.

The presence of the term DMZ in a leaked screenshot doesn’t prove any of these rumors, only that the feature does currently exist. We’ll have to hang on a little longer to find out what the initial release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is going to look like. 

If you just want to see the potential map for Modern Warfare 2, though, you won’t have to wait terribly long. Apparently, Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile leaked the Modern Warfare 2 map images already.

Since Infinity Ward released the extended single-player gameplay for CoD Modern Warfare 2, we haven’t really seen anything more surrounding the game. It’s been silent over at the Infinity Ward studios. Luckily, we have leaks to go by. Recently, leaks were found in the game files of another CoD game, Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile. 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 DOWNLOAD

This kind of thing happens quite frequently within the gaming community. If a developer is silent for too long about a game that is nearing release, fans and researchers will take apart the studio’s other intellectual property in order to find more information to quench the growing thirst of the anxiously waiting gamers. This is exactly what has happened with Call of Duty and their soon-to-be-released title Modern Warfare 2. 

The images in this case came from a now-deleted Twitter account and reportedly feature maps from CoD Modern Warfare 2, and another game known currently as Call of Duty 2024.

We say reportedly because while the author of the post claimed the images were taken from the game files of an in-development build of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, we cannot know that for sure and the Tweet has since been relegated to the black hole of other deleted Twitter accounts. 

The images apparently show three Ground War maps. four multiplayer maps, and the keyart for Modern Warfare 2’s extraction royale mode, DMZ. The first map of interest is called Grand Prix and resembles an Asian F1 circuit. According to Charlie Intel, Infinity Ward talked about this map during a pre-reveal event.

The next multiplayer map is called Oilfield and if you’ve played Rust it may look a little familiar. The images also featured a map called Museum that takes place inside an artistic structure. The last multiplayer map is currently called SABA, but its name could change by the time we get to play MWII. 

As for the Ground War maps, we have one resembling a classic modern warfare TV station called Sira, a fishing village called Fishtown, and a dam that may feature a power generator known as Hydro. Unfortunately, the DMZ keyart is underwhelming as it’s a granulated and blurry image of a few soldiers that could be from anywhere within the game. 

While we don’t have any other information about MWII at the moment, we do have an article detailing how much fun Call of Duty’s behind-the-scenes teams have with players who cheat in CoD.

There’s much fanfare about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 lately, and for good reason. We’re all anxiously waiting for early access to the Beta to drop so that we can see how this new game stacks up to what we expect from Activision. Thanks to a recent leak on Amazon, we might not have to wait long at all for a first look at the next chapter in the Modern Warfare story. 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 DOWNLOAD

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II is currently available for pre-order on Amazon. This, on its own, is not what tells us that we could be seeing early access to the beta soon. But, have a look at the product description: 

‘Beta Code Offer Qualifier‘

Pre-Order Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II for any platform by October 28, 2022, to unlock early access to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Open Beta. Must be shipped and sold by Amazon. Codes will be sent 72 hours after pre-order. Here’s how (restrictions apply).’

The fact that the codes are going to be sent by the 28th of October to those who purchase Call of Duty: MWII from Amazon shows that the 28th is the official launch date. However, 72 hours after pre-order means the Beta could release within the next few weeks.

It wouldn’t make much sense to send codes to players on a particular day for a game that won’t be playable on that day. It doesn’t matter which version of the soon-to-be-released game you click on either; the message is the same across the board on Amazon. 

Another thing that the store listing stipulates is that the beta will launch first for PlayStation platforms. We had an expectation that this would be the case, but we haven’t had any official promotional material from either Activision or Infinity Ward speaking to that fact.

The leaked reveal trailer for Modern Warfare II did mention that there would be five days of early access to the Open Beta on PlayStation consoles, but this information didn’t make it into the official promotional content, which was uploaded later the same day. This, unsurprisingly, spawned a little confusion as to the nature of the beta’s release as it pertains to PlayStation consoles. 

We can therefore expect more concrete information from the publisher sometime soon. In the meantime, however, here are the details you may have missed concerning Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II’s reveal.

Exciting details for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 READ MORE

Infinity Ward is preparing for the release of the highly-anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and we’ve finally seen the trailer. Expect a continuation of the Task Force 141 story, but in a new and potentially surprising setting. 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 DOWNLOAD

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare followed a sequence of events that took place primarily in the fictional Islamic state of Urzikstan. The new game, however, teases gameplay on a global scale. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will follow the events of CoD: Modern Warfare but will be set in the Americas, Europe, and Asia.

We’ll know more about the finer details of gameplay after today’s Summer Game Fest’s two-hour live showcase. For now, however, we can confirm that the game will feature underwater combat, offshore sieges, stealth missions, and brutal assaults from 30,000 feet in the air. 

Once you’ve played through this action-packed campaign, you’ll be able to tackle the co-op mode, where you can hone the team-building skills that you’ll need for the multiplayer component. We still don’t know exactly what this multiplayer component will look like yet, but we’ll likely have to wait a little longer to find out. For now, we’re most excited to see the longer playthrough of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. 

We also know for a fact that there will be three distinct editions of the game when it’s released. The first is the standard edition, which will feature standard gameplay in addition to rewards and the ability to upgrade. The next one up is the Cross-gen Digital Edition which will give you access to all previous generation console variants of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, in addition to the new version. The ultimate edition of the game for hardcore CoD fans is the Vault Edition. The Vault Edition contains the base game and the following packs:

• The Red Team 141 Pack
• FJX Cinder Weapon Vault
• Season One Battle Pass
• Ghost Legacy Pack
• In-store Bonuses 
• Cross-Gen Edition

You can pre-order any of the digital editions right now, and if you pre-order, you’ll receive other digital rewards that will be officially announced at a later date. 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 officially launches on October 28, 2022, for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS4, and PS5. Since the franchise is back on Steam, this launch will include the PC version too. Anyone who preorders the game will be granted early access to the open beta dropping first on PlayStation.

Now that we’ve received more information about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, it might be fun to check out our previous article on the subject, where we predicted what the then-upcoming trailer would reveal. Go on, and see how keen our editorial team’s spidey senses are when it comes to upcoming game releases.

New Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 trailer reveals worldwide premiere READ MORE

It was only last week when we used some visual clues for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 that Activision might release more information on the FPS game on June 8, 2022. It seems like our deduction skills paid off, as a new trailer teasing a worldwide premier officially announces the date is correct. Next week Wednesday, we’ll be tuned to our screens as we finally receive some exciting details for the next COD: MW installment.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 DOWNLOAD

In this new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 trailer, you see a group of soldiers called Task Force 141. They hail from the MW title that launched in 2019, so it could be that we’ll be seeing a sequel. Some leaks and rumors suggest they’ll be going behind enemy lines to take on the Colombian drug cartels. We’ll have the official details on this during the worldwide premiere on June 8th.

Joel Emslie, the art director for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, gave a few more details on Activision’s latest blog post. To amp up the excitement, he stated that it will be the studio’s most ambitious project for the COD brand yet. He also mentioned that it’s the type of game he’s been waiting to be a part of for a very long time.

Many people are still playing the multiplayer modes of the 2019 Modern Warfare. We saw six seasons appear in the first year, action-packed with new weapons, items, and operators. Of course, we’ve also seen COD: Warzone and COD: Vanguard appear since then, and it will be fascinating to see how Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will compare to these giants. We’re also waiting on any more details from the exciting closed alpha of COD Project Aurora.

CoD Comms have officially reactivated in preparation for the launch of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. Fans can now count down the weeks until the next highly-anticipated installment of the franchise launches. Hours ago, Activision announced that Call of Duty MWII will be released on Friday, October 28th, 2022. 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 DOWNLOAD

Accompanying the release date is a slew of media, including striking artwork and a video portraying some of the most iconic characters. Among the characters showcased in the artworks are Gaz, Captain Price, Soap, Ghost, and Alejandro. The video seems to be more than just a tactic to garner hype; it may actually hold clues as to when we’ll see the first gameplay reveal for CoD MWII.

The most damning piece of evidence to this end is bright green graffiti in the video reading J-8-22. This could be a completely unrelated design choice, but logic dictates that it’s the date for the release of new information; June 8th, 2022. If this is true, fans only need to wait around two weeks to get a good look at what’s next for the Call of Duty franchise.

The fans have made no secret of the high hopes they hold for Modern Warfare 2. The new installment is being developed by Infinity Ward, the studio behind 2019’s highly-anticipated title, Modern Warfare. Players have had a lot to say about MW over the years, and not all of it is good. However, hopes are high that Modern Warfare II will follow in the steps of its predecessor and break numerous sales and earnings records when it’s released later this year. 

Infinity Ward may be under even more pressure than usual this time, though. A Bloomberg report from February detailed that the next installment of Treyarch won’t come until around 2023, meaning that Modern Warfare II will be the studio’s main title for at least two years. 

Fiscal concerns aside, if the teasers and promotional media for Modern Warfare II are anything to go by, this game is due to redefine the future of the Call of Duty franchise and possibly, to a large extent, the gaming industry on the whole. We’re incredibly excited to see what comes on June 8th, if anything. 
In other Call of Duty news, we’ve received exciting new details about Project Aurora. Progress is steadily being made on Call of Duty’s latest exploration into mobile gaming.
