Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is poised to release on PS4, Xbox One, and PC later this year in October, and when it does, it will come with some big changes to multiplayer map designs. More specifically, multiplayer maps in the upcoming installment won’t all use the classic Call of Duty three-lane design, which many players have grown tired of over the years. That said, there will be some maps that still utilize this design, but there will also be maps that completely abandon it.

The news comes way of Taylor Kurosaki, the game’s narrative director, who makes a habit of interacting with fans on Twitter and answering their burning questions. And in the process, he usually reveals interesting tidbits.
They arenโt.

As you will know, Infinity Ward hasn’t revealed the game’s multiplayer yet, but that will change on August 1 with a special livestream that will dive into multiplayer for the first time, and presumably dive pretty deep into. In the meanwhile, today, Infinity Ward released a new teaser showing off a bit of the gun customization that will be featured in the game.
