Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has launched Zombies mode, which marks the first of its kind in the series. It is the first time ever that players will encounter the scary undead in a Modern Warfare game. The new mode is known as Operation Deadbolt.
Operation Deadbolt will be slightly different from the usual Call of Duty Zombies experience. It will bring in one with the largest map in the mode’s long history. By now, the developer, Activision, has revealed most elements of Modern Warfare 3, including the maps that the game would be launching with.
It is, in fact, it is looking like it could be a strong contender in the FPS series that might just bring back lapsed players. Modern Warfare 3 Zombies will be launched along with the main game on November 10, 2023. Although it will be part of the main game, it will be available as a specific mode.
It is still unknown how big the mode will be at the time of launch; however, like the previous Call of Duty games, this mode will have a dedicated menu.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Zombies mode details
Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, officially called Operation Deadbolt, will feature Soap and Kate Laswell. They will seen attempting to thwart a world-ending plot from Viktor Zakhaev. Once they attempt to steal vials of Aetherium, Zakhaev’s men accidentally release it into a city. This will lead to a full outbreak that the player along with their squad, will try to contain.
The most interesting part of Operation Deadbolt is that it will take place on the largest Zombies map ever. It will be a considerably open affair, and it looks like it includes the same design mentality as DMZ mode from last year’s Modern Warfare 2.
Although details of the full map are not known yet, reports suggest that it takes place on Urzikstan, the upcoming Warzone map. Players can expect multiple ways to enter buildings as well as different ways to approach the objectives in the game. Considering the fact that there will be multiple squads in every match, this makes sense.
All Operators that the player has unlocked from Modern Warfare II and Modern Warfare III will be available. Additionally, two extra Operators, namely Ripper and Scorch, will be unlocked after the player completes specific challenges within the Zombies mode.
Every Strike Team Operator can be selected and includes five different customizable Equipment Slots. The Gear one finds during the missions is saved and will include Killstreaks, Armor, Gas Masks, and Medical items.
MW3 Zombies seems to be more of an extraction based shooter experience. It will stand to see whether or not this iteration of zombies will benefit from the likes of custom maps and Steam workshop.
