Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer Trailer Leans on Nostalgia and Eminem to Get Fans Pumped
03.10.2023 - 16:33 / ign.com
Activision has released a first proper look at Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s multiplayer, leaning heavily on nostalgia for classic maps and mechanics.
Veteran fans of the series will immediately note Activision’s use of Eminem’s Till I Collapse for the trailer, below. Till I Collapse was used for the Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 launch trailer 14 years ago.
2023’s Modern Warfare 3 includes all 16 launch maps from the original Modern Warfare 2 and will see 12 new 6v6 maps come out post-launch. The video showcases a number of these classic maps, such as the eternally popular Rust. Check out multiplayer screenshots in the slideshow below:
We also get a look at slide cancelling, which makes a return for this game. Slide cancelling is a long-running movement option in the Call of Duty series that high-skilled players use to avoid enemy fire. It involves cancelling the slide animation, thus resetting your tactical sprint and maintaining momentum even as you slide about.
Slide cancelling was in the original Warzone and 2019’s Modern Warfare, but for Warzone 2.0 and Modern Warfare 2 developer Infinity Ward stopped it from working as it used to (you can't slide cancel out of a tactical sprint), sparking a vociferous debate among the player base. While the community came up with their own way of performing slide cancels in both games, these methods involve more inputs and are not as powerful. Modern Warfare 3 U-turns on slide cancelling, speeding up movement in the process.
The trailer also offers a glimpse at weapon stance switching for Modern Warfare 3:
Activision will host a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 open beta across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC (PlayStation owners get first access) from this weekend. Those who preorder gain access to the campaign up to a week before release. Modern Warfare 3 launches on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and S on November 10.

Unless the FTC's Lina Khan runs in at the last minute to physically tackle Bobby Kotick before he can sign anything, it's looking very likely that Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard will close in the very near future. I mean very near, you understand, as in possibly this Friday, pending word from the UK market regulator. But if you think that heralds the imminent arrival of games like Modern Warfare 3 and Diablo 4 on Microsoft's Game Pass service, Activision has news for you: It doesn't.
