In another twist in the ‘has Activision abandoned Call of Duty: Modern Warfare?’ saga, Infinity Ward has now pulled two of the new maps surprise-added to the game last week.
Last week, we reported how 2019’s Modern Warfare unexpectedly received three new maps, four months after Activision left the game behind to focus on Black Ops Cold War and Warzone.
The maps, added to the game as part of the mammoth mid-season two update, are Killhouse, Al-Raab Airbase (6v6) and Drainage (Gunfight).
Killhouse was added to Multiplayer alongside the new Killhouse 24/7 playlist, which remains available today.
However, Al-Raab Airbase (6v6) and Drainage (Gunfight), were only ever available to play in private matches. Now, they’re gone from the list of maps you can select in custom games.
This bizarre development has come without any explanation from either Activision or Infinity Ward, although perhaps that’s unsurprising since neither company acknowledged the arrival of the maps in the first place. The latest tweet from the developer is dated 8th March, although there have been a couple of retweets since then.
