Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s Season 2 Reloaded patch notes are live now, giving us a look at the various changes hitting Activision’s first-person shooter today, March 6.
On the Multiplayer front, the headline is the arrival of three new 6v6 maps: Das Haus (a remake of the map of the same name from Call of Duty: Vanguard); Skidgrow (an overgrown, limited-time variant of Skidrow); and Airborne (A pestilence-ridden, limited-time variant of Terminal).
Elsewhere, there are two new weapons (the SOA Subverter battle rifle and the Soulrender melee), new aftermarket parts, and two new modes (Bounty and Juggermosh, the latter of which lets players cosplay as Space Marines from Warhammer 40,000). Speaking of Warhammer 40,000, there’s a new event related to the grim dark sci-fi universe, as well as another for Dune.
The Reloaded update also makes a sweeping balance pass to weapons, all of which are detailed in the patch notes, below. Of note is a significant change to aiming down sight, which now sees the crosshair transition directly to the center of the player’s screen rather than easing into position. "This change continues our improvements to the precision and responsiveness of aiming in Modern Warfare III and Warzone," Activision explained.
On the Zombies front, there’s a new story mission, a fresh Dark Aether Rift, New Acquisitions and Schematics, new Containment Levels, and a new Warlord.
Das Haus (6v6)
A chaotic classic returns from Call of Duty: Vanguard (2021) with a fresh coat of paint.
Skidgrow (6v6)
An overgrown, limited-time variant of Skidrow.
Airborne (6v6)
A pestilence-ridden, limited-time variant of Terminal.
SOA Subverter (Battle Rifle)
Chambered in 7.62, this hard-hitting rifle dominates at mid to longer ranges thanks to a low rate of fire and predictable recoil.
Soulrender (Melee)
A ceremonial blade capable of razor-sharp cuts and deadly melee action in close-quarters combat.
JAK Backsaw Kit (Holger 556)
Attach a high-capacity drum magazine to the Holger 556 alongside a double-barrel configuration allowing the weapon to fire two bullets at a time.
JAK Outlaw-277 Kit (BAS-B)
Transform the BAS-B into a lever-action rifle, slowing its rate of fire while massively improving its accuracy for pinpoint precision.
Bounty
Face off against the enemy in a Team Deathmatch–style game mode where players have unlimited lives and the first team to reach the elimination-based score limit wins.
Juggermosh
Prepare for heavy combat as players slug it out as imposing Juggernauts clad in Space Marines skins inspired by the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
Dune: Rule of Fate
Take control of the throne of fate and earn XP to unlock exclusive rewards.
Warhammer 40,000: For the Emperor!
