What is Spec Ops?

Spec Ops or Special Operations is a co-op game mode that places players in war-torn areas with specific tasks to complete. Some missions may require a player to eliminate a target, while others may require the player to steal enemy intel. But, these tasks may change over time, so players may need to change their gameplay style.

Up to two players can join a Spec Ops mission. Each player can choose one Kit (Medic, Assault, Recon, etc.) that has an assortment ofField Upgrades, Perks, and Killstreaksto use in a mission. Players should make sure they use kits that will benefit the team. Upon completing a Spec Ops mission, players will receive up to three stars, depending on how well the team did in the mission.

In addition to new Spec Ops missions, players will notice several new features in this game mode. For example, players can use the Backpack (which is heavily featured in the campaign), allowing them to switch their lethal and tactical equipment. Players will also be able to play a revamped version of “Spec Ops Survival,” where they’ll need to defend various areas from waves of enemies (similar to Zombies mode from previous COD games). Special Intel items will be scattered around each map, so players that want to learn more about theCall of Duty Modern Warfare 2lore will want to find them all.

At launch, only three Kits will be available: Assault, Medic, and Recon. Here are some of the things featured in the Kits:

Players can level up Kits by using them in missions or obtaining stars (up to level 10). Each level adds more tactical/lethal equipment or other useful Field Upgrades and Perks. Similar to the previous Spec Ops game mode, every mission rewards players with stars. The more stars players obtain, the more rewards (calling cards, emblems, and operator skins) they unlock. So, players that want to obtain all the operator skins, likethe Burger Town skin, will want to complete all mission at max stars.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is currently available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
