Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 made three new playlists available to its players: Shipment 24/7, Modern Warfare 2 Mosh Pit, and Team Gunfight. The new modes represent some classic playlists returning to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, as well as some interesting new additions.

Modern Warfare 3 is well into Season 1, which began on December 6 and is expected to end on February 7. Call of Duty's newest season was going pretty smoothly until last week's Season 1 Reloaded update introduced major bugs. Since then, Modern Warfare 3 has mostly recovered from the surprisingly broken state it found itself in, and it seems that the game is returning to normalcy following its newest playlist update.

Modern Warfare 3 added three playlists in Modern Warfare 2 Mosh Pit, Team Gunfight, and Shipment 24/7. Modern Warfare 2 Mosh Pit is a returning mode from Modern Warfare 3's early days, which features maps from the older title. This time around, it added Breenbergh Hotel to its original lineup of Farm 18, Crown Raceway, Mercado Las Almas, and Shoot House. Team Gunfight is a new Gunfight variation that uses the original mode's rules but pits two teams of six against each other on standard maps. This is probably an exciting development for Gunfight fans, as this is the first time in a while that Call of Duty has introduced a new and meaningful way for them to enjoy their favorite mode. Shipment 24/7 is a classic playlist that features Shipment as its only map.

These playlists will presumably be available for a limited time, so interested fans should probably try them out sooner rather than later. Although it seems unlikely that Modern Warfare 2 Mosh Pit will be made into a permanent playlist, a mode like Team Gunfight could become a permanent addition if it's popular enough. However, this is just speculation, and Modern Warfare 3's permanent Cutthroat mode would make this a crowded subsection of the game.

As Call of Duty's next major update nears closer, some fans are probably curious as to what they can expect from Modern Warfare 3's Season 2. Sledgehammer previously confirmed that Season 2 will introduce three new 6v6 maps to Multiplayer. There are also rumors of some significant additions coming to Zombies, like a new boss and more storyline content. Leaks also pointed towards a potential Walking Dead crossover, but this has not been confirmed. Season 2 is expected to launch on February 7, but similarly, this has also not been confirmed yet.

Released in November of 2023, Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (2023) continues Captain Price's story from the 2019 and 2022 games.
