What to expect from CoD MW2 season 5 patch notes
(Spoilers for the Modern Warfare 2 campaign below)
A quick look at the Call of Duty blog tells us that Commander Phillip Graves survived, and he has intel on a huge new threat: the Konni Group. It looks like we'll be taking them on to eliminate the pressing chemical weapon threat.
It appears that there will be four new maps at launch, too. These maps are Punta Mar, Strike, Lounge, and Canal.
There will also be a new multiplayer mode called Havoc which, according to the official blog, is "inspired by classic arena-shooter gameplay, then further enhanced with the injection of a random selection of frenzy-inducing modifiers." We're certainly excited to get stuck into the roguelike mode!
There will also be new weapons, new events (including a hip-hop celebration with Snoop Dog), and, of course, skins. See you on the battlefield!
To read the full, very long patch notes for the new season, head over to the official Call of Duty website and settle in for some hefty reading.
