Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Season 1 is live. Today, Activision has revealed many changes throughout their patch notes, including a new collab and a game mode related to The Boys. The game mode is named Supe Siege, and players will compete in a new Supe’d Up version of Kill Confirmed. In this twist on the classic mode, fallen Operators drop doses of Temp V, giving temporary power boosts like Heat Vision to those who swoop in to collect them.
Alongside this are tons of other changes, such as Ranked, weapon and other balances, and new maps that will surprise the fans. Sledgehammer has been doing rounds around the working table, which seems to have paid out in the end.CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFARE III SEASON 1 PATCH NOTES
