PC Games

A major update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone was introduced on January 23. This update includes changes to aftermarket parts, a new way to purchase bundles, and adjustments to the limited-time Supe’d Up multiplayer mode. Here’s a breakdown of what’s new.

New Multiplayer Features

For multiplayer, the new Supe’d Up LTM in Season 1 Reloaded has been modified to allow players to earn Temp V abilities more than once per life. The in-match scoreboard columns have also been adjusted to display Kills, Confirms, and Denies.

Aftermarket Parts Balancing

Several of Modern Warfare 3’s aftermarket parts have undergone balancing to enhance player experience with familiar weapons. This includes improved recoil control and decreased bullet requirements for certain aftermarket parts.
