The next Call of Duty installment, Modern Warfare 3, will feature over a dozen new core six-vs-six multiplayer maps that will be released after the game’s launch, eventually bringing the multiplayer map total to well over 30, Activision announced today.
At launch, all 16 legendary maps from the original Modern Warfare 2 released in 2009 will be available to play, all “modernized with new modes and gameplay features” including the new three-vs-three-vs-three Cutthroat mode. The 12 new core six-vs-six multiplayer maps will be spread out along the post-launch live seasons, in a similar vein to how Call of Duty has released new maps seasonally with its most recent titles.
