CoD MW2 Shipment release date, UK launch time & Christmas update
When is the iconic map coming to Modern Warfare 2?
When it comes to Call of Duty maps, nothing quite conjures a feeling of nostalgia like Shipment. Despite being one of the smallest maps in the series, it's one of the most memorable. In fact, its miniature size is what makes it so intense. Ever since we first played it on Modern Warfare back in 2007, it's been one of our top locations.
Unsurprisingly, we can't wait for the midseason update to Season 1 of Modern Warfare 2 - because Shipment is making a return. Activision has released a Shipment map intel which details the changes made to the map, plus a few tactics on how to thrive in the new revamp of the classic arena.
If you're interested, keep reading because we're going to share everything we've found out so far about the new and (hopefully) improved Shipment map.
When is the CoD MW2 Shipment release date?
The MW2 Shipment map release date is 14th December. That's today, so there isn't long left to wait!
This is part of the big new Midseason Update for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Season 1, the full patch notes for which can be seen on the official CoD website. We've got more details about Shipment's return for you further down this page.
