With Season 3 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III nearly over, Activision has released a new update today that makes a fair number of changes. At this point in time, Season 4 of MW3 and Warzone is only about two weeks away and is planned to go live on May 29. As a result, more information on what Season 4 will entail should be coming about soon enough, but ahead of that time, Activision is improving MW3 in its current form right now.ย
Downloadable across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, the latest patch for Call of Duty: MW3 is aimed entirely at multiplayer. As expected, a number of bugs tied to UI, progression, and various maps and modes have all been resolved with this patch. Most notably, though, balance changes have been made to a handful of different weapons and perks, which should shift the game’s meta just a bit.ย
