This newCall of Duty: Modern Warfareplaylist features two distinctly different multiplayer maps in Shoot House and Atlas Superstore.Shoot Houseis one of the smallest maps inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare, and it has been one of the most popular maps in the game since its release. Atlas Superstore, meanwhile, is a larger, 10v10 map, so it should provide a markedly different experience for those taking advantage of theCall of Duty: Modern Warfarefree weekend opportunity.
TheModern WarfareStocked Up, Locked Down playlist features a variety of game modes for players to try as well. This includes standard Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed, Domination,Hardpoint, and Headquarters.Modern Warfarefree weekend players will be able to customize their loadouts to adjust for the different tactics needed in each mode, just like in the full game.
