Battle royale has been the most trending genre out there for a long while now, and many series, such as Call of Duty and Battlefield, have joined it quite. Modern Warfare 4‘s supposed to be. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare's battle royale mode is rumored to support up to 200 players per match, on a massive map nearly four times the size of Blackout from Call of Duty: Black Ops 4.
The latest Call of Duty is still going strong with its post-launch support, as you can see from the season 2 roadmap for Modern Warfare here. The game is played to run for roughly a year until the next installment of the popular shooter comes out, and the wait is also on for the battle royale mode that is also coming. Today, we got a good idea of when we can expect it.
Modern Warfare Battle Royale Confirmed

We heard earlier about the upcoming battle royale, called Warzone. There’s been a lot of speculation about when this fabled mode will come about. According to VGC, they have heard that you’ll be able to play it pretty soon. Their sources say it’s a few weeks away, coming sometime early next month.
Warzone has allegedly been developed jointly by Raven Software and Modern Warfare developers Infinity Ward. The report by VGC also states that the mode will immediately unlock for all Modern Warfare players in the game’s main menu (which currently has a conspicuous greyed out space) as soon as it launches.
Interestingly enough, the report also mentions that Warzone will also release as a free-to-play individual standalone game, and that it will give players the option to upgrade to the full Call of Duty: Modern Warfare if you get it as a standalone title. It will also “likely” share a unified progression with Modern Warfare, including cosmetic unlocks. All of this is in line with previous reports.
Sources also indicate that Activision will be kicking Warzone’s marketing into gear very soon, and that content creators will be visiting the studio to get some hands-on time with it. As per VGC, Activision hopes to use Warzone to keep players engaged with Call of Duty, similar to Call of Duty: Mobile. They plan to do so through regular content updates, some of which will be monetized. Warzone is planned as a third pillar of the franchise, including the aforementioned mobile title and future full-priced mainline releases, which Activision does not plan on slowing down either.
Quite a few gameplay details are also mentioned in VGC’s report, which claims that Warzone will support for up to 200 players in a “squad-based setup”. The mode will also feature a pinging system similar to the one seen in Apex Legends, the Plunder in-game currency (earned by killing enemies and completing objectives, used to purchase gear, and can be stored in banks for later matches), and a Gulag respawn mechanic (where players killed during a match will go 1v1 against another player and fight for the right to be respawned). Other players will supposedly be allowed to bet on the outcomes of these 1v1 matches using Plunder.
The map will feature “familiar to Modern Warfare players”, including existing Ground War maps like Boneyard, Quarry, and Port, as well as classic multiplayer maps from the Modern Warfare series like Vacant, Broadcast, Killhouse, and Scrapyard.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. The Warzone mode will most likely come early in March. As of now, we have no solid details on how the mode will function, but presumably it’ll be similar to the battle royale mode, Blackout, for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4.
Is Modern Warfare 4 is going to beremastered of Modern Warfare?
Modern Warfare Battle Royale Mode
It is too early to comment on this, as Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 is still under production. All we hear is from the rumors and suggestive leaks. Kalaftati 4 oyna. But, as true with the gaming world we know actually who bring these leaks or fuel the rumors out there. Yes, most of the time it is the publisher of the game itself. Hence, we have some solid reasons to believe those rumors. Among the pile of rumors that are making rounds on the internet, one of the rumors suggests that Modern Warfare 4 is the remaster of Modern Warfare 2. While the publisher has neither confirmed these rumors nor declined them, hence there all probabilities that this is going to be a remastered version.
Isn’t Modern Warfare 4 a one-step backward?
It might not be, let us tell you why. The last installments of Modern Warfare 4 didn’t do goodbusiness in the gaming market, and the sales volume quoted by Activision werequite low. This was nothing short of a disappointmentfor the publishers as well as the developers of the game. The futuristic, aswell as sci-fi based themes, simply didn’t work for Activision. Thus, they havetaken a step back and decided to fall back on their most successful venture ofModern Warfare series. Undoubtedly, Modern Warfare was successful and was wellreceived by gamers. Still, it is quite famous, even though therewere a couple of releases of ModernWarfare after that. So, we can say even though it’s a one step backward, but itis equivalent to one big step forward.
So, is it going to be the sameas Modern Warfare 2?
No, absolutely not. It’s a remastered version, not the same version, and there is a difference between them. We expect certain additions to the game, which is going to make more interesting and exciting. However, we should not expect a new campaign in Modern Warfare 4. It is going to be the same as in Modern Warfare 2. Yes, this has been already confirmed through some leaks from credible sources. And, we feel this is a bit of let down for the fans of COD. However, to spice the things up there are some notable editions. It is going to have Battle Royale mode and we will also see specialists in MW4. Battle Royal mode has been extremely popular amongst the gamers when it was released in the Black Ops series. On the other hand, specialists are unique characters with unique abilities and are extremely instrumental in multiplayer mode. We can say that Modern Warfare shifts more towards the multiplayer mode, with these additions.
No Russian Mission
Their won’t in any “No Russian Mission” in MW4, as it was there in MW2. “No Russian” attracted a lot of criticism and was subject to multiple controversies. Hence, Activision has finally decided to scrap it in the latest release.
Is Modern Warfare 4 going to have Battle Royal ?
There has been lot of rumours on COD’s next instalment. These rumours simply fail to die down. Thanks to the Call of Duty fandom. They just keep on scrubbing the internet for each and every piece of information, that is associated with the Call of Duty next MW4. Fans can hardly control their excitement, since the time it has appeared that Modern Warfare is going to be COD’s next. Especially online forums are talking a lot about this. They are talking about probable weapons, probable perks, game settings and many more. You might have already heard a lot about them.
Rumors are ripe about Battle Royale
There is a new leak that has come out. This suggests definitely something about Battle Royale in Call of Duty MW4. Before you get too much excited about this rumour, let us tell you that this rumour has come out from nowhere, and we have not been able to authenticate as well. But you know that the rumours that come from nowhere are fuelled by the developers themselves, to keep alive the buzz. So, we do expect that even it’s a rumour, there is every chance that might be turn out true. So, here we are. Battle Royal is going to be in Modern Warfare 4. Battle Royal game mode has been the key feature of COD, and developers as well as publishers simply don’t want to leave it out. For example, there was a battle royal mode named blackout in Black Ops 4. Since, the release of Black Ops 4, blackout has been extremely popular amongst the gamers. Blackout has been popular mode for online play, that has been gradually transitioned into the military shooter. So, going by this popularity we can say that Infinity Ward will make every effort to include Battle Royal mode in MW4.
Will there be a campaign story in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4?
From the leak, we have learnt that MW4 is not going to have any new campaign story. Well, this already kills some part of excitement, as we were not expecting that. Instead what we hear is, Call of Duty MW4 will be remaster of Modern Warfare 2, and there is a possibility that Modern Warfare 3 remaster may also come up later. With no new campaign in Call of Duty MW4, we need to see how it is received by the fans of COD. Initially, the online forums were quite sure that COD’s next will have a newer campaign. There is a reason behind this. The last two releases used futuristic themes or the sci-fi sequences really failed to attract the gamers. Hence, this time Activision wants to fall back on the tried and tested lines. Infinity Wards want to go back to its roots, which made Modern Warfare a big hit amongst the gamers. The leak also confirms that there no Russian mission in Modern Warfare 4.Still in production, Modern Warfare holds lot of excitement for the gamers even though it wont have a new campaign.
