November 23 marks the last day of theCall of Duty: Modern WarfareSeason 6 Battle Pass. With the recent release of a newCoDtitle, there may be speculation thatCall of Duty: Modern Warfare’s days are numbered.
The game, by longtimeCall of Dutydeveloper Infinity Ward, serves as a soft reboot to itsModern Warfareseries. Although the title has been generally praised over the past year, the most recentCall of Duty: Modern Warfareupdate is a disappointment to fans.

Modern Warfarefans will be pleased to know that, despite the end of Season 6, more content is indeed coming. Infinity Ward Lead Multiplayer VFX Artist Reed Shingledecker confirmed the news when responding to a player’s question on Twitter. While it does confirm more content, it remains unclear if it will be a Season 7 or something else. The uncertainty may be due toModern WarfareandWarzone’sseasonal leveling system integration withBlack Ops Cold War, which goes live on December 10.Modern Warfaremultiplayer players can continue increasing their overall player rank and accessing the new seasonal prestige system. In addition, they can also contribute to the Battle Pass forBlack Ops Cold WarandWarzone. However, the content unlocked won’t be usable inModern Warfare.
Although it’s not clear when or what the new content will be, the game continues to be extremely popular. According to Activision-Blizzard,Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis the best selling game in the franchise, selling over 30 million copies in its first year. Activision has yet to officially announce any future plans for the game. Shingledecker is with the gaming community, hoping for an official update so players “know what’s going on.”
It’s great to see continued support for aCall of Dutytitle, especially after the release of a newer one. The exact type of content coming to the title is currently unknown, but a recentdiscovery of a strange, untextured pistolmay hold a clue. Hopefully, this will be a trend Activision continues going forward.
The annualCall of Dutyrelease usually means alternating developers, and therefore a different feel to each game. Treyarch’sCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warhas been lauded for its innovative campaign. However, it has fans split on its more arcade-like multiplayer. Luckily, for those who preferCall of Duty: Modern Warfare’s style, the game is rumored to get a sequel in 2021.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis available on PC, Ps4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
