COD MODERN WARFARE 2. With the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Activision intends to bring something new to its FPS license. This also results in the introduction of a new game mode, DMZ.
[Mis à jour le 5 juillet 2022 à 10h57] Undisputed star of Summer Game Fest 2022, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 looks set to become one of the most anticipated releases of the year. Activision has indeed entrusted the development of this next component to Infinity Ward, which, failing to find original names for its games, has already demonstrated its expertise in the development of Call of Duty games. In addition to a new campaign following the storyline of 2019’s respected Modern Warfare, and a new iteration of the battle-royale Warzone 2.0, the game should incorporate a whole new experience never before seen in the history of the franchise. This is the DMZ game mode, an adventure described as “hardcore” and “close to Escape from Tarkov”. Thanks to the recognized insider Tom Hendersonand his research work for the journal try hardwe were able to learn more about what this very mysterious game mode should look like.
Let’s start these few lines by confirming that what is in question here is still only at the stage of rumors and that nothing has yet been officially announced by Infinity Ward or Activision. Although Tom Henderson has very knowledgeable sources and has seen his inferences very often confirmed, he is still a (respected) journalist and not the Community Manager of Activision Blizzard. In his article for Tryhard, the British start by denying the rumors that the DMZ mode would be a free-to-play release on the sidelines of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, a bit like Warzone. Indeed, sources close to Infinity Ward have confirmed that the DMZ mode will be launched at the same time as the game, and integrated into its various multiplayer experiences. You will therefore have to buy Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 to play it.
As for the very nature of DMZ’s gameplay, some rumors quickly compared it to a hardcore extraction-based shooter, similar to Escape from Tarkov. Again, Henderson dismissed those rumors by stating that, yes, the game would be similar to the popular Russian tactical FPS in its mission/extraction premise, but that DMZ probably won’t come out as full-featured as its Eastern European counterpart. is. It would actually be more like “one of the game’s multiplayer modes” and not a full standalone Warzone-like experience. Infinity Ward’s choice would rather be to build the DMZ experience over time and with the players. An understandable decision, given Battlefield 2042’s Hazard Zone mode fiasco (although the failure of HZ mode was more due to the lack of a viable rewards system, and more generally content in a more than very average Battlefield 2042).
If we take a closer look at these images, it’s hard not to remember the intense and revolutionary campaign of Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2019). A military assault on the high seas is something to impress, despite the game still sticking to its graphics engine for three years. There are some innovations, particularly in terms of the physics of objects on the water, but these images rather assure us of a solid Call of Duty that is more than revolutionary. We will also, of course, celebrate the return of Captain Price and his colleagues in this muscular campaign focused on the challenges of the modern world.

It is therefore the American studio Infinity Ward which is in charge of the development of this next release. Quite reassuring news when you consider his pedigree in terms of Call of Duty games. We owe him very popular episodes like Modern Warfare (2007) and Modern Warfare 2 (2009), but also Modern Warfare (2019) and soon Modern Warfare 2 (2022-2023). Proof of an undeniable ability to provide excellent FPS failing to find them original names. Modern Warfare 2 will of course be the opportunity to find the most popular operators of the first part, Captain Price, Ghost and tutti quanti, which we can of course see in its new Battle Royale mode, Warzone 2. moreover Warzone 2 which is in the center of attention at the moment since the insider and journalist Tom Henderson relayed the first sketches of the map of the next Battle Royale.

It will therefore be found on PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series. Good news for all those who have not yet had the opportunity to buy one of the rare next-gen consoles on the shelves, less good news for the technical progress of the game. These may be quite limited, slowed down by an older console generation and with reduced capabilities compared to their next-gen counterparts. A justified choice for Activision, which cannot afford to set aside the immense mass of PS4 and Xbox One players.
