With Call of Duty Season 2 about to launch on PS5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC, Activision has released a new update for Modern Warfare 3. The January 31 Call of Duty update makes multiple changes across multiplayer, ranked play and Zombies. As you can see from the patch notes further down the page, the new update enables Killcams in MW3 Ranked Play, and addresses an issue where some players would enter a match with an invalid loadout.
Elsewhere, the January 31 Modern Warfare 3 update makes an absolute boatload of bug fixes.
Activision has resolved a selection of issues with Calling Cards, including one problem where players were kicked back to the menu.
That’s on top of the Gunsmith camera position while selecting a Bolt Attachment for the KATT-AMR, not to mention a respawn issue within the Underpass map.
Finally, Activision has addressed progression issues with the Weekly Challenges and Camo Challenges.
