Four New MW3 Season One Maps & More Revealed
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is now officially a week old and with Season One just around the corner, Sledgehammer Games have just dropped a lot of new info. The four maps coming to Modern Warfare 3 in Season One have been revealed, along with some more information on the new Warzone map, Urzikstan.
New MW3 Season One Maps
Season One of Modern Warfare 3 will bring four new multiplayer maps. Three of those maps will be 6v6, with two available at launch, and the final map will be for the new game mode returning in Season One, Gunfight.
Meat [Season One Launch, 6v6]
Call of Duty
“Become the best butcher on the block in this compact map centered around the East Bay Meats slaughterhouse.”
Meat appears to be a close quarters focused map catered to SMG players. This will be a breath of fresh air for SMG players in Modern Warfare 3 right now, with most of the current maps catering more to Assault Rifle players.
Greece [Season One Launch, 6v6]
Call of Duty
“Prove you’re no mere mortal in this medium-sized Mediterranean-inspired Map based on a coastal town.”
As a medium-sized map, we can expect Greece to have some long lanes for AR players to hold down, along with some buildings for more close quarters combat.
Rio [Season One Reloaded, 6v6]
Call of Duty
“Take in the bright colors, tight quarters, and elegant streets in a fight through an upscale shopping center.”
Rio looks incredible, and again, appears to be more built around SMG players, so it seems like Sledgehammer Games are trying to balance out the mapset a bit more.
Training Facility [Season One Launch, 2v2]
Call of Duty
“Face off in a training course complete with a central shoot house and plentiful climbing opportunities.”
Training Facility is the new Gunfight map coming to Modern Warfare 3 in Season One. Gunfight was one of the most fun game modes in Modern Warfare 2019, and many fans will be happy to see it return.
Warzone Urzikstan Updates
Fight through the all-new Urzikstan map, an urban landscape incorporating 11 major points-of-interest for Call of Duty: Warzone. From the iconic Popov Power Plant in the north all the way through to the Zaravan Suburbs in the south – there's a new favorite hot-drop for everyone.
Gameplay Update: Call of Duty: Warzone will be updated to include many of the new movement mechanics, encompassing maneuvering from both Call of Duty: Warzone and from Modern Warfare III. Examples include Slide cancelling, Tac-Stance and more. Expect further details soon.
Take Off: Horizontal Ziplines? Check. Drivable Train? Yep. Stay tuned for more details on the multitude of ways to traverse Urzikstan.
Call of Duty HQ Update: Squad up and jump between Modern Warfare III and Call of Duty: Warzone with an update that will make switching between titles more seamless.
This is just a small reveal of all the content coming in Season One for Modern Warfare 3, with more updates coming shortly. However, one thing fans will be happy to hear is Sledgehammer Games again confirming that Multiplayer Ranked Play will be coming during Season One, and they’ve also teased a new ‘snowy event’ coming mid-season.
