After making their fans wait for months, the developer and publisher of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019 has finally released the trailer, the gameplay videos of the multiplayer feature of this reboot title. Besides the videos, Infinity Ward and Activision also released a bunch of new details for this title, and we will cover the main points for you in this article.
Three videos of the game released, including two gameplay videos
Infinity Ward and Activision have promised of a big reveal for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019 on August 1st for a long time and these two gaming companies did not let their fans from all around the world down. This reveal, including a lot of information and multiple gameplay clip of the game, is exactly what the starving fans of Call of Duty game franchise want.
This trailer clip is merely just a debut for the multiplayer feature of the game. But this clip has already done its job: hyping us the fans. It has shown us the weapons, the killstreaks, the mechanics, and many things more of the multiplayer features of this game via a really entertaining collection of extreme highlights.
This is a big reveal for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019, so one trailer clip is not enough for the fans, of course. Infinity Ward and Activision have also released two more gameplay videos of the game. The first clip is the gameplay of the deathmatch mode in the multiplayer feature. This mode is quite usual and ordinary, comparing with other deathmatch modes in other FPS games.
The second gameplay video for the game is the main dish of the meal. There are a lot of things we can see from this gameplay video for the campaign mode of the multiplayer feature of the game. First, enough the video, then we come to the analysis right below.
As you can see from the clip, there are moments we have the mini-map, but some moments we do not. There have been debates over the existence of the mini-map of this title. All the Call of Duty titles before have mini-maps, but there have been multiple leaks telling us that this Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019 would not have mini-maps. Turn out, the leaks are not totally wrong, but not totally right either. We will tackle this point in another article since this is a major point of the whole title.
Moreover, this is a mission in the campaign, but there are two different sides at the end of the match, winning and losing sides. This indicates that in the campaign of the multiplayer feature, players will be teamed up to fight other players, not AI. Infinity Ward and Activision have mentioned that players would experience the campaign of this title from both sides. If this is true, then you have to win the mission against other players online to process in the campaign of the multiplayer feature.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare open beta schedule
Not only the videos but the information of the game is also released by these two gaming companies. The most important news is definitely the schedule for the open beta of the game. Unlike other Call of Duty titles in the franchise, the open beta for this title will be available for all gamers on all three platforms of the game. That means anyone can access this open beta and try the game, regardless of whether he has pre-ordered the game or not.
But pre-ordering the game does have its benefits. In this open beta, there will be an exclusive session just for gamers who have pre-ordered the game. Infinity Ward and Activision can never let those who have pre-ordered their game feel betrayed, of course.
One more thing to be noted about this open beta: there will be an exclusive session for the PS4 players before the full open beta for all three platforms. And even more, this title is the first title in the Call of Duty game franchise to feature the cross-platform. Regardless of your playing platform, you will be playing with and against players from all PC, PS4, and Xbox One platforms. And in the next open beta for all platforms, gamers all around the world can also experience cross-platform playing.
With that in mind, here is the full schedule of the open beta for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019
