Summary
Activision has teased a number of changes coming to theCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3Zombies mode as part of the upcoming Season 1 content drop. The inauguralModern Warfare 3season is planned to kick off in early December.
Although the latestCall of Dutyentry had a fairly poor critical reception, its low ratings largely stem from the game’s unimpressive single-player campaign. On the other hand, the shooter’s multiplayer experience elicited much more positive reactions from both the fans and critics alike. Among other things, many playerspraised theModern Warfare 3Zombies mode as a better Outbreakfrom the 2020Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.
New Seasonal Mission and Endgame Activity Are Coming to MW3 Zombies
The Zombies mode story is now set to continue in the first season ofModern Warfare 3, with Activision confirming as much on the officialCall of Duty Blog. Specifically, Season 1 will add a new area to the Exclusion Zone in the form of a gigantic gateway that players will be tasked with exploring. Completing that seasonal mission will unlock access to Dark Aether Rifts, a new endgame activity that promises to deliver a steep level of challenge by tasking players with completing time-limited objectives in some exceedingly deadly environments that they’ll even have to escape once they’re done.
MW3 Season 1 Will Add a Familiar-Looking Zombies Wonder Weapon
Season 1 will also introduce the Friend Zone, anew Wonder Weapon for theModern Warfare 3Zombies mode. This devastating piece of gear is actually a modified V-R11, an alien-looking beam emitter that has so far only appeared in the 2010Call of Duty: Black Opsas an exclusive of the game’s ninth Zombies map, Call of the Dead. Since MWZ is an open-world experience, it’s likely that the Friend Zone won’t have such usage restrictions this time around.
More MW3 Zombies Schematics Are Also on the Way
Finally, Sledgehammer is working on an entirely new category of schematics that will also debut in MWZ as part of the game’s Season 1 offerings. Not much is known about this particular addition, with its official confirmation merely stating that unlocking these new schematics will be anything but easy. Although someModern Warfare 3Zombies players have recently been calling for more cooperative missions, there is presently no indication that Season 1 will introduce anything of the sort. That notwithstanding, minor gameplay improvements and bug fixes are always a possibility when it comes to seasonalCall of Dutyupdates.
The newly announced Zombies mode additions are just the tip of the content iceberg that’s soon set to debut in the latestCall of Dutygame;Modern Warfare 3Season 1 will also add four new maps and Gunfight, a popular 2v2 multiplayer mode that was first introduced in the 2019Modern Warfarereboot. Season 1 is rumored to begin on December 6, although neither Activision nor Sledgehammer have yet confirmed that date.
