New Season 1 Map: Meat

Meat: Season 1 introduces the new map Meat, a compact slaughterhouse located in California’s Port of Oakland. Battle in close quarters through the meat locker and processing plant or extend the fight into the midrange by taking to the outer loading dock and parking lot. The new Tac-Stance ability is perfect for this environment, combining agility and accuracy to stay light on your feet while remaining on target.

Combat moves quickly on this small-sized map, so be ready to engage right at the start of the match. Shotguns and SMGs are your prime cut here, with midranged weapons gaining some traction outdoors. Stick with your teammates to keep the odds in your favor and be fast on the trigger to gain the initiative over your enemies.

Slay the Horde in Modern Warfare Zombies

Zombies arrives for the first time in the Modern Warfare universe, and Free Access players can get more than a taste of the new gameplay experience as they join Operation Deadbolt in their mission to contain the Exclusion Zone.

Taking place on a zombified version of the new big Urzikstan map, players will deploy to and complete Missions and Contracts, and acquire high-value items like Acquisitions and Schematics that can be exfiltrated from the match for use in future deployments.

Power up through classic Zombies items like the Mystery Box and Pack-a-Punch Machine. Equip Wonder Weapons like the Ray Gun, the Wunderwaffe, the V-R11, and the new Scorcher. Modern Warfare Zombies is a fully cooperative game mode where squads work together to push farther into the Exclusion Zone, gaining greater rewards as the threats intensify.

War Mode: Operation Spearhead

Compete in War’s Operation Spearhead, a multiphase objective mode. The attacking team’s objective is threefold: Destroy the enemy team’s SAM Site and Radar, escort a tank through hostile territory, and upload override codes to prevent an incoming missile launch. On the defending team, it’s your job to prevent the enemy from completing their mission at all costs.

Be ready to fight in an environment that changes as the mission moves through sections of Urzikstan’s Orlov Military Base and Kadurin Silo. In this thrilling 6v6 battle, the team that best adapts to the shifting parameters will be well on their way to victory. For an in-depth look at Operation Spearhead, check out our War mode guide.
