DLC
04Overview
The Season of MW3. Redeploying with an arsenal of content unlike any in franchise history, Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 3's first downloadable "Collection" arrives stockpiled with not only four Multiplayer/Survival Mode Maps, but two Special Ops Missions – the first time Call of Duty® has ever made Special Ops downloadable online.
DLC: MW3 COLLECTION 1
All New Content. Players can choose between heading to a militarized Central Park in "Liberation," destroying scenic vistas in a seaside Italian getaway in "Piazza," raining glass on New York passersby from 70-stories-up in "Overwatch," and battling beside a downed Air Force One in "Black Box."
ARSENAL OF CONTENT
Team Up. Face Off. Modern Warfare® 3's second downloadable "Collection" deploys with 3 Multiplayer/Survival Mode Maps, 2 Special Ops Missions, and the introduction of 2 all-new "Face Off" maps. Scoping the Mediterranean, Hamburg, a sprawling vacation resort and even the Scottish Islands, players hungry for action will have no shortage of venues to test their Multiplayer and Special Ops skills.
RUN-AND-GUN FACE OFF
Getaway: The first "Face Off" map in Modern Warfare® franchise history, what once was a tropical beach getaway boasting exotic aquariums and oversized pools is now a haven for ruthless run-and-gun violence. Lookout: Carved into a combat-weary mountainside, this new "Face Off" map pits you against your opposition in a forward observation base littered in chokepoints and tight corridors.
BREACH-AND-CLEAR SPEC OPS
Hop aboard snowmobiles to infiltrate a diamond mine in "Black Ice" or head to India, where "Negotiator" will leave the fate of hostages in their hands. Black Ice: Shred ice from aboard your snowmobile as you infiltrate a diamond mine and melt more than snow when you plant high-grade explosives. Negotiator: Cash in all your karma as you head to India for high-stakes hostage extraction, where you'll breach-and-clear rooms and navigate surface streets to secure the safety of your VIPs.
MW3 - COLLECTION 3
Combat-Heavy Care Package. With its third DLC Collection, Modern Warfare® 3 drops a combat-heavy care package of Special Ops Chaos mode, 4 new Special Ops missions, and 3 FACE OFF maps for the ultimate trifecta in solo and co-op gameplay. High-altitude Special Ops challenges put tactical skills to the test, with players navigating armed drones above a Russian destroyer and evading RPGs from the roof of a helicopter-swarmed hotel.
FIERCE FACE OFF
Intersection: A New York bridge overpass provides the backdrop in which an ultra-condensed 2-block battle zone allows players to fight on the first and second floors of surrounding apartments. Vortex: No storm shelter can keep you safe in a map that places you just outside the danger zone of a devastating tornado. U-Turn: A bombed-out, gridlocked highway provides a perfect backdrop for combatants, where oil fields burn black high above six-lanes' worth of abandoned vehicles.
MW3 - COLLECTION 4
Saluting Modern Warfare® 3's Season of Content, the fourth and final DLC collection deploys with five all-new Multiplayer Maps. Surrounded by mountains, "Gulch" sends combatants into a forgotten mining town with only mine shafts and equipment sheds for cover. The Jersey coast awaits in "Boardwalk," where fun in the sun means facing enemies on the beach. Rounding out the collection is a trip to New Orleans’ war-torn French Quarter, where "Parish" pits players against one another amidst the city's rubble.
SHORELINE-BASED FACE OFF
Players must earn their sea legs on "Off Shore" and "Decommission," where deadly oceanic oilrigs and a maze of rotting ocean liners provide the perfect setting for shoreline-based combat. Off Shore: Trapped on an oil rig in the middle of the ocean, you have nowhere to go but directly at your enemies. Decommission: A graveyard of rotting ocean liners has not only given birth to a shantytown of locals, providing the perfect setting for a map populated with chokepoints.
