Mission Accomplished?
This week seesCall of Duty: Modern Warfare’ssixth season of content come to an end. And as the mission clock ticks down on the shooter’s most recent Battle Pass, there is no word from publisher Activision or developer Treyarch of a Season 7, suggesting that theModern WarfareDLC timelinemight be going darkfor the foreseeable future.
Launching back in November 2019,Modern Warfareessentially rebooted the blockbusterCall of Dutyspin-off franchise (a “spin-off” that ultimately proved to be the most popular brand, no less). But since its launch,Call of Dutyhas gone all-in on its mega-popular battle royale title, Warzone, a project so huge in scope and so popular among the community, that it seems even the recently releasedCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Waris fighting to stand against it.
However, speaking ofCold War,the latest update toCall of Duty’s’80s adventure has implemented a new “dashboard-style” title menu, from where the player can launchCold War, Warzone, orModern Warfare– provided that respective titles are installed. From this, we can ascertain thatModern Warfareremains a relevant, mainstream member of the currentCall of Dutyfamily, even if Activision are, indeed, done with creating new content for it.
Ultimately, there are only so many hours and so much worktime allotted to a day. As such, it’s understandable that the development team might be focusing on the two newest titles going forward.Call of Duty: Cold Warwill receive itsfirst season of content next week, bringing new maps, operators, and weapons to the game. Now if you can just see to adding the Farah to theCWoperator roster… well that’d be just peachy, if a tad anachronistic.
