Season 5 of Call of Duty will have a very special guest from WWE

Se anuncia la temporada 5 de Call of Duty y ya sabemos algunas de las jugosas novedades que llegarán a Modern Warfare 3 y Warzone.

If there’s one thing that never stops, it’s the new seasons of Call of Duty. There’s always something new for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone, and it’s no wonder. It’s probably Activision’s most popular franchise, now on Xbox, and it would be absurd to let it die when it’s working so well for them. Even when the latest Call of Duty games haven’t resonated as well with the public as they expected. That’s why, on the eve of the next season, we already have new details.

Season 5 of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone will be released in less than a week: on July 24th. This has been announced with a brief trailer of just over a minute where all the available content has been revealed. It’s worth noting that this time it will be a free content update.

Perhaps the biggest news, or at least the one that will be most appealing to the general public, is that there will be a new operator in Call of Duty. And this will be a WWE superstar, the wrestler Rhea Ripley. Former women’s world champion, leader of The Judgment Day group, and considered one of the best WWE wrestlers. It is quite an honor for her to make her way into Call of Duty as one of the new operators.

Another new feature is that they will include a cel-shaded version of some multiplayer maps, along with a matching skin. If you don’t know what cel shading is, it is a rendering technique in which flat colors are used to make computer-generated graphics appear hand-drawn. In this case, in a particularly exaggerated way, they look like they come from an explosively colorful comic book. Something that suits Call of Duty well.

In addition to announcing a series of maps, which we can briefly see in the trailer, it is expected that all of this will come with a battle pass, as usual. We don’t have details yet, but it is expected to include more content related to WWE and its wrestlers. As well as the cel-shaded aesthetic. With less than a week until its release, the details will be released at any moment, but until then, we can start preparing to shoot with the WWE Mommy.

Oh no, bullets trans: Call of Duty fans are getting angry over tremendous nonsense during Pride month

That the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and hip-hop singers are fighting in Call of Duty is one thing, but… Human rights? Yes, man, that’s where we draw the line. In the midst of LGBTQ+ Pride Month, Activision has decided to release a free pack with cosmetic enhancements to celebrate what’s appropriate. Kind of like putting the rainbow flag on your Twitter avatar. Do you think this optional and free detail has been well received by everyone? Haha, of course not.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 DOWNLOAD

Is anyone going to think about FPS players?

The thing is that one of these cosmetic improvements paints the bullets of one of the guns with the blue, pink, and white colors of the trans flag. No, it doesn’t do anything else, it doesn’t turn the characters into members of the movement, or anything like that. Of course, that hasn’t been an excuse to launch silly and ignorant conspiracy theories or to be outraged by the existence of homosexual people in 2024.

More specifically, the trans flag, if you decide to apply it to your weapon, will paint your weapon with a glitter version of the colors and add the bullets of the cartridge to that pattern on the M4, and only on the M4. Furthermore, the madness doubles: the bullets in question only appear with the trans flag if you spent 100 euros on having the Armory Edition of Modern Warfare 3 and crafted the version of the M4 called “Soul Harvester.” It’s probably just a simple bug, but come on: we couldn’t go any further!

Come on, it’s something very specific that wouldn’t even be worth mentioning, except by the most transphobic people around. However, we can’t let things slide, and on Twitter -where else- they have started saying all sorts of nonsense about it, while Activision wisely remains silent, waiting for this little storm of pure absurdity from the 17th century to pass. And no, trans people are not going to disappear. And yes, Pride is here to stay. That’s how it is, Modern Warfare 3 players. Either you evolve, or you get evolved.

Have you ever played ‘Call of Duty’ and thought “Here is missing ‘Gundam'”? Your wishes are orders

You might be surprised to learn that ‘Gundam’ is now joining the FPS genre. Yes, the Japanese giant robot anime that debuted in 1979. That one. Season 4 of the war game is going to get very animated.

You may remember the time when ‘Call of Duty’ was a war game that aimed to be more or less realistic in its historical battles. And if you have been under a rock unaware of the crossovers in recent years, you may be surprised to know that ‘Gundam’ is now joining the FPS genre. Yes, the Japanese anime about giant robots that debuted in 1979. That’s right. Season 4 of the war video game is going to get very animated.

Little dam, a lot of gun

And what will we find in this crossover? No, now you won’t be able to ride giant robots to defeat your enemies or revolutionize World War II riding the RX-78-2: there will be skins, accessories, and weapon blueprints available for those who missed mechas in their historical war recreation.

However, season 4 of ‘Call of Duty’ has brought problems to the fans, because they have decided to resurrect, as a skin, Soap, one of the most beloved characters in the saga… and who died in the campaign of ‘Modern Warfare 3’. Well, making money from wherever. In addition, there will be three new main maps (one of them in Tokyo) and a new vehicle. On May 29th we will be able to see all this in ‘Warzone’ and ‘Modern Warfare 3’. Of course, I hope you’re not too much of a purist, because clearly that’s no longer a thing in the saga.

Everything you need to know about Season 1 Reloaded of Modern Warfare 3

Everything you need to know about Season 1 Reloaded of Modern Warfare 3, aimed at giving a twist to the game as we know it.

If there is something inevitable, it is that games as a service continue to invent new ways to keep players hooked. Precisely because they are services, they need to keep their players constantly playing. And that’s why they must give them reasons to never completely disconnect. Something that in Call of Duty has led them to make a mid-season update that we are going to explain everything you need to know about.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 DOWNLOAD

Called Season 1 Reloaded, the intention is to bring new content between seasons to both Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Warzone. With that purpose, significant changes will be introduced to the maps, game modes, and of course, a new event, new skins, and new weapons.

The scheduled release date for this Modern Warfare 3 Season 1 Reloaded and Warzone Season 1 Reloaded is next Wednesday, January 17th at 6 PM, Spanish Peninsula time. One hour earlier in the Canary Islands. If previous seasons’ experience is any indication, it is expected that the update files will be uploaded at least 24 hours in advance. So you will be able to download them and have everything ready before the official launch of this new half of the season.

For Modern Warfare 3 players, there will be several changes. To begin with, there will be three new multiplayer modes: Team Gunfight, Headquarters, and Infected. To take advantage of them, they will introduce a new map, Rio, inspired by the famous Brazilian commercial district. In addition, it will come accompanied by a collaboration with the series The Boys, which will have its own game mode and a particular event, which will include an operator skin, and a new Warlord called Dokkaebi for the game’s zombie mode.

Meanwhile, Warzone fans won’t go hungry either. Adding a new quest that will require 30 victories just to start it, a small twist to the Gulag, and a new item and escape route, in addition to the two weapons that arrive in both games: the HRM-9 and the TAQ Evolvere. So, whether you’re a fan of one or the other Call of Duty, or both, you have interesting content ahead.

Modern Warfare 3 removes one of its skins because it considers it provides too much competitive advantage

Modern Warfare 3 removes one of its skins because it considers that it offers too much competitive advantage, although it already had that problem in the past

Keeping a game perfectly balanced is a utopian idea. It’s impossible. It will never happen. There will always be slight advantages, minor drawbacks that favor certain styles and trends over others. Pure balance is impossible and probably undesirable. However, that doesn’t mean aiming to maintain the feeling of as much balance as possible isn’t desirable. Especially in the case of games with aggressive monetization like Call of Duty, it’s even essential.

Modern Warfare 3 is learning the hard way with one of the most hated skins in the game. Named Gaia, this operator skin for Nila “Nova” Brown makes her look like an evil version of Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy. What’s the issue? Due to its unique aesthetic, a tangle of branches that simulate a human silhouette, it’s perfect for blending into the environment.

For a significant portion of the game’s community, this skin goes beyond aesthetics and becomes a form of pay-to-win. Ultimately, it allows players to hide from the sight of other players, which is impossible for other characters regardless of their skin. This led to changes last October, but it wasn’t sufficient. As a developer from Sledgehammer Games mentioned, they’ve removed the skin from the game until they completely redesign it.

The problem is, this isn’t the first time this has happened. The Gaia skin already appeared in Modern Warfare 2, gathered exactly the same criticisms, and has returned in Modern Warfare 3, seemingly without the developers addressing the community’s complaints. Or at least not with the attention they should have given.

According to the folks at Sledgehammer themselves, adjustments to this skin will arrive in the future in Modern Warfare III to make it playable without providing a competitive advantage to those who use it. It’s the least they can do after the less-than-ideal start of one of the most played franchises in the world.

Zombies mode returns in Modern Warfare 3, now with an open world

Do you like zombies? Do you like Call of Duty? If the answer is yes, we have excellent news for you: zombie mode returns to CoD.

Who doesn’t enjoy a good zombie apocalypse in their shooter game? Especially when it has been refined over the years and has proven to be an extremely popular mode executed to perfection. Because shooting zombies is fun, even when we’re not in a horror game. And Treyarch knows this very well because, without beating around the bush, the zombies mode has been revealed for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

Steam DOWNLOAD

Presented with a cinematic trailer, the biggest change compared to previous zombie modes is that this time it will feature an open world. As reported in a blog post on Call of Duty’s website, this will allow squads to team up with other squads to take on the zombies, who are more numerous than ever this time around. Additionally, the missions themselves will be significantly more complex.

With different regions that increase in difficulty, this mode aims to bring a different vibe to the Modern Warfare 3 gaming experience and to the franchise’s other zombie modes as well. Therefore, it will be an open-world PvE survival and objective extraction mode with special missions.

Adding to what we’ve already discussed about teaming up with other squads, they have all the ingredients to make this the most epic and wild zombie mode experience in history. Especially because they’ve indicated that we can expect unique elements, challenges, and cinematics that will enhance the most important aspects of the story.

Modern Warfare 3 will be released on November 10, 2023, for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC. The game is being developed by Sledgehammer in collaboration with Infinity Ward, with Treyarch handling the zombie mode.
