Notably, neither Activision nor Infinity Ward has said a word about these additions. No announcements, no teases, not equal patch notes. Modern Warfare's sixth season ended last December, and since then, Activision seems to deliver ghosted the game entirely—even going so utmost as to put back its Battle.net client spot with Warzone. Elements of Modern War mightiness remain in Warzone, but Jeremy Peel reckoned the engagement royale format squanders that game's intrigue.

These new maps are a welcome addition to the game, of course, but you'd expect the fall of one of Modern Warfare's to a greater extent painting maps to be a big moment for the lame. Maybe devote the States a heads up next time, yeah?
