Activision has announced that from March 17-21, this weekend, select multiplayer modes for Call Of Duty Modern Warfare II (2022) will be free to play.
The Free Access is to coincide Season 02 Reloaded, the new season of content which just dropped today. The new season adds the new Himmelmatt Expo map, among others.
Fascinatingly, the Free Access will also include the first-ever Call Of Duty raid. Yeah, COD has raids now, part of the Special Ops mode, with this new season.
Atomgrad Special Ops Raid Episode 1 will see three players take on the roles of Captain Price, Farah and Gaz infiltrating an underground bunker searching for Echo Team. Players must coordinate themselves to overcome traps, environmental hazards and enemy forces.
Finishing Atomgrad Episode 01 will unlock a new Operator Skin for Gaz with a Mystery Case that drops rewards from a raid loot table. It’s a proper raid, then, from the sounds of it.
The new season adds the second episode of the raid. So this is a sampler for those who have yet to purchase the game.
Here’s all the content accessible in Call Of Duty Modern Warfare II (2022) during the Multiplayer Free Access weekend (March17-21):
- Core (6v6) Maps: Farm 18, Mercado Las Almas, Shipment, Dome, Himmelmatt Expo (NEW!)
