Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is one of the most beloved games in the franchise, and for good reason. As such, fans were hoping for more than just the campaign to be remastered in 2020, and it seems likeCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2fans were originally going to get their wish.
While the campaign of the 2009 title was beloved by fans, and it was nice to see an upgraded version of it, multiplayer was where the title truly shined. Alongside the best iteration of the co-op mode Spec Ops,the secondModern Warfaregamefeatured iconic weaponry like the Ranger shotguns and Intervention sniper rifle. Every weapon was overpowered, making the game incredibly fun, and the map lineup included classics like Terminal, Rust, and Highrise.

Despite being so popular, and even though the remaster ofCall of Duty 4: Modern Warfarebrought back the game’s multiplayer content, fans did not get access to the remastered multiplayer for the sequel. While some have coped by making aCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Remasteredmultiplayer mod, others are simply wondering where the rumored online portion of the remaster went. According to a recent video from reputable insider Tom Henderson, which was broken down by Redditor maneil99, the multiplayer was supposed to launch aroundModern Warfare2019.
Obviously, that multiplayer never came, and Henderson claims that all the content that was being worked on for the remaster will be incorporated intoCall of Duty2022 instead. All but confirmed to beaModern Warfare2019 sequel, 2022’sCoDgame featuring this content makes sense, though it will be interesting to see how the community reacts. While it will be nice to see classic maps and weapons brought back, they will no doubt play differently in theCall of Duty2022 engine. Regardless, it is nice to know that some content from the beloved game’s multiplayer will be getting a fresh coat of paint.
While some fans may be let down by the news thatCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Remastered’s multiplayer was absorbed into the 2022 game, the bright side is that this year’s entry in the series should have a massive amount of multiplayer content. In his video, Henderson also shares thatCall of Duty2022’s leaked DMZ modewill have a unique map and some complex AI. He teases free-to-play content and states that development is going smoothly, with the game’s pre-alpha footage supposedly looking good.
WithCall of Duty2022’s campaignexpected to focus on Task Force 141 as well, the game should be a crowd-pleaser. While it may not be the same as a full remaster of the originalModern Warfare 2, at leastCall of Dutyfans can expect some content from the 2009 game if the latest leaks are accurate.
