Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III arrives in a bit over a month, and Activision has provided a first peek at the game’s multiplayer in action. As we’ve heard previously, the game will initially focus on offering remastered versions of all the maps from 2009’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Afghan, Derail, Estate, Favela, Karachi, Highrise, Invasion, Quarry, Rundown, Rust, Scrapyard, Skid Row, Sub Base, Terminal, Underpass, and Wasteland) with new maps coming post-launch.
In addition to the remastered MW2 maps, the trailer features plenty of new skins, weapons, and what looks to be a brief peek at the new Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 map that will be launching shortly after Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III arrives. Based on our brief glimpse, the new Warzone map kind of looks like Verdansk, albeit with a variety of new landmarks, including what looks to be a rocket launch pad. Doesn’t look too groundbreaking, but a lot of people still like Verdansk, so may as well give the people what they want. You can check out the full Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III multiplayer trailer, below.
In addition to the new multiplayer trailer, Activision has revealed which maps will be playable during the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III open beta. They include…

Super Mario Bros Wonder is set to introduce a big change to the Mushroom Kingdom as the voice of Mario passes on to a new actor. Who is the new voice of Mario, though?
The new voice actor behind Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Bros. Wonder has finally been revealed, and they are relatively unknown in the video game space. This marks the first new voice actor for Mario in the video game world since the mid-90s, as another performer had the role locked down for decades.
The new voice of Mario has been officially announced.
It’s official: we have a new voice actor for Mario! And no, it isn’t Chris Pratt. Rumors swirled about who might take up the Italian plumber’s big shoes after longtime voice Charles Martinet announced his departure from the role. Well, it’s now confirmed that Mario, as well as Luigi, will be played by voice actor Kevin Afghani in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. It’s unknown if he will play the role in future titles.
With minimal fanfare, Nintendo has finally confirmed the new voice of Mario in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and he has at least one thing in common with Charles Martinet in that you probably won't recognize much of his pre-Mario work.
Nintendo revealed in August that longtime Mario voice actor Charles Martinet would no longer be voicing Mario. Amongst speculation of a different voice actor for Mario in Super Mario Bros. Wonder trailers, Nintendo also announced Martinet was not jumpman's voice in the game, leaving fans to wonder who the new voice is. After months of internet sleuthing, guesswork, and more, Nintendo has confirmed that Genshin Impact voice actor Kevin Afghani is the new voice of Mario.
There was a seismic shift in the gaming world a while back when it was revealed that Charles Martinet would stop being the main voice of Mario and several other Mushroom Kingdom characters for Nintendo games and other properties. Martinet was the voice of Mario and Co. for decades, and hearing that he was leaving was heartbreaking for many. Then, it was confirmed soon after that Nintendo had already cast a new voice actor for Mario and others for Super Mario Bros Wonder, the game that releases next week. However, they decided to stay tight-lipped on who it actually was.
The new voice of Mario has been revealed: Kevin Afghani is the actor behind Mario (and Luigi) in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Nintendo confirmed on Friday. Afghani replaces actor Charles Martinet, who provided Mario’s chipper wahoos and it’s-a-mes for more than 25 years.
The new voice actor for both Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Bros. Wonder has been confirmed to be Kevin Afghani, who announced it himself on Twitter.
