New Modes in MW3 Season 2
On February 7, Modern Warfare 3 Season 2 will escalate the action with three fresh game modes, and that's just the beginning – more are closing in throughout the season.
Team Gun Game: It's Team Deathmatch with a twist – your squad must master a series of eight weapons to claim victory. Turn the tide with melee attacks and finishing moves to block the rivals' progress.
Snipers Only: Team Deathmatch and Domination now demand sniper precision. Forget Lethals and Tacticals – here, it's all about the long-range takedown.
Hordepoint (Limited Time Mode): Hardpoint meets the undead. Eliminate zombies to loot Pack-A-Punched weapons, Max Ammo, and Instakill boosts (Zombies only). Rack up points with every five zombie takeouts to expedite your killstreaks, adding a ghoulish twist to the challenge.
Juggermosh (Limited Time Mode): Imagine Kill Confirmed, Domination, and Hardpoint, where Juggernaut armor is the new norm. Only aerial streaks can pierce through, and a one-hit melee weapon lies at the heart of the map. Experience this mode uniquely in third-person, along with an accompanying event.
Bounty: A spin on Team Deathmatch where the player with the most kills becomes a High-Value Target (HVT). Taking them down means scoring big.
Vortex: Decay’s Realm Playlist :Prepare yourself for the chaotic realm of Vortex in the exclusive Decay's Realm Playlist – only available for a limited time.
New Ninja Vest Perk in MW3 Season 2
Get ready for a stealthier approach in Modern Warfare 3 Season 2 with the introduction of the Ninja Vest Perk at launch. This latest addition is a game-changer for players who thrive on close-quarters combat.
The Ninja Vest Perk is a silent force, completely muting the sound of your footsteps and shielding you from any effects that slow down your movement. Plus, you'll receive extra Shuriken and Throwing Knife ammunition. Every 25 seconds your supply of these silent weapons is replenished, ensuring you stay armed and dangerous.
Remember, the Ninja Vest Perk is standalone — its benefits don't combine with any other perks you might have.
Operation in MW3 Season 2
Season 2 also unveils Operation Tin Man, an expansive new mission set amidst the urban sprawl of downtown Urzikstan. Teams face off in an intense showdown: one tasked with fortifying a Skyscraper, the other with breaching and dismantling it piece by piece.
