In perhaps the most shocking news of the year, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is getting a battle royale mode. Allegedly, of course. The report comes from a fairly credible source, although not one that’s officially related to Modern Warfare developer Infinity Ward or publisher Activision. We technically have to classify it as a rumor, but let’s be honest, a shooter game releasing in 2019 is going to have a battle royale mode.
The rumor comes courtesy of TheGamingRevolution, a YouTube channel that has a pretty stellar history with Call of Duty leaks. According to their source, Modern Warfare is definitely going to have a battle royale mode. It also seems that Infinity Ward is well aware of the potential battle royale fatigue that could set in by the time the game releases. To combat this, the dev team is experimenting with throwing in zombies to give their battle royale a unique flavor.
