WhileCall of Duty: Warzonemay be stealing some of the spotlight fromCall of Duty: Modern Warfare, Infinity Ward and team are continuing their robust plans for post-launch content. Season 2 is coming up to its conclusion, widely expected to be April 8 but perhaps extended. With Season 3 ofCall of Duty: Modern Warfarecoming soon, there’s a lot of new content on the way. Unsurprisingly, that means there are going to be a lot of leaks along the way.
A new trailer from Activision has people talking about a new map forCall of Duty: Modern Warfaremultiplayerthat may be coming with Season 3. It’s unclear if the map teaser was intended or slipped through the vetting process. Nevertheless, a hint of the new map was shown via a developer’s monitor with some code. The code in question referenced “mp_village2” which Call of Duty fans believe refers to theCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3map Village.

Village is one of Call of Duty players' favoritemaps fromCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It’s a larger map, which haven’t been as popular inModern Warfarebut could change some minds. It takes place in an African village with a variety of small buildings, a stream toward one end, and various vehicles and debris. There’s not a lot of verticality to the map, though it does have some sloping hills. It’s most well-known for its mix of short-range and long-range angles, which is great for a diversity of gameplay.
The Village map is not yet confirmed forCall of Duty: Modern Warfare, of course.Infinity Wardand Activision haven’t officially announced their plans for Season 3 yet, though the leak, or teaser, does hint that the map is perhaps being worked on, barring the map mention being unrelated by some chance. It may come in Season 3, Season 4, or a different way entirely.
Season 3 ofCall of Duty: Modern Warfare’s multiplayer is expected to be released a week into April, which means that information will hopefully be shared soon. IfModern Warfare 3maps are coming toModern Warfare, they may be confirmed then. Of course, they may be pushed to be a mid-Season release as well, which means info might be a month or more out.
Something else worth taking into consideration is the novel coronavirus. Due to thespread of COVID-19, development at Activision’s studios may be affected. That could mean that Season 3 is delayed or that some of the content planned for Season 3 is pushed back. Everything’s currently a bit up in the air.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
