From December 14th to December 18th (till 10 am PT/ 11:30 pm IST), Activision is giving gamers free access to Modern Warfare 3’s Season 1 content. Note that this includes multiplayer only and not the single-player campaign (which was a disaster and not worth playing anyway). Here’s what it includes:
New Season 1 Map: Meat
“Season 1 introduces the new map Meat, a compact slaughterhouse located in California’s Port of Oakland. Battle in close quarters through the meat locker and processing plant or extend the fight into the midrange by taking to the outer loading dock and parking lot. The new Tac-Stance ability is perfect for this environment, combining agility and accuracy to stay light on your feet while remaining on target.”
Modern Warfare Zombies
“Zombies arrives for the first time in the Modern Warfare universe, and Free Access players can get more than a taste of the new gameplay experience as they join Operation Deadbolt in their mission to contain the Exclusion Zone., Taking place on a zombified version of the new big Urzikstan map, players will deploy to and complete Missions and Contracts, and acquire high-value items like Acquisitions and Schematics that can be exfiltrated from the match for use in future deployments.”
War Mode: Operation Spearhead
“Compete in War’s Operation Spearhead, a multiphase objective mode. The attacking team’s objective is threefold: Destroy the enemy team’s SAM Site and Radar, escort a tank through hostile territory, and upload override codes to prevent an incoming missile launch. On the defending team, it’s your job to prevent the enemy from completing their mission at all costs.”
