Modern Warfare 2019 didn’t launch Special Ops, instead going with Gunfight as a third mode. Modern Warfare II will be the first time Special Ops has been included in a MW game since Modern Warfare 3 in 2011.
This is a cooperative game mode that sees players team up and fights endless waves of real-life enemies, using weapons items from multiplayer to fend them off. Instead, the developers at Infinity Ward opt for Special Ops. Of course, Modern Warfare games have also never featured any kind of Zombies. Perhaps Vanguard’s lackluster attempt at Zombies is the main reason Modern Warfare II won’t feature the mode. However, the latter mode in Vanguard was not well-received at all. The past two games, Black Ops Cold War and Vanguard, have both launched with a Zombies mode. Players fight through endless rounds of the undead while also completing Easter eggs steps and earning camos for their weapons, among other things. Zombies is one of the most popular aspects of Call of Duty. Instead, MW2 will feature a traditional third mode, Special Ops, along with the “DMZ” mode that’s been leaked and teased by Activision. This information mainly came through content creators who were able to playtest the game early in Los Angeles, but according to Activision and these creators, Modern Warfare II will not feature any kind of Zombies mode. After the big global reveal trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II dropped on Wednesday, the publishers released some additional information as well.
