It includes three new 6v6 multiplayer maps, the return of Gunfight, All or Nothing, Infected and Headquarters multiplayer modes, a new Zombies story act and Dark Aether Rifts, and new Warzone map Urzikstan.
Modern Warfare 3 topped the UK software sales chart in November, but it fell significantly short of the launch enjoyed by last year’s Call of Duty game.
According to GSD data covering physical and digital retail, Modern Warfare 3 sales during the game’s first three weeks of availability were 38% lower than Modern Warfare 2’s following its release last October.
