Season 4 Reloaded brings a ton of new content to Modern Warfare 3.
By Logan Moore
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III's massive Season 4 Reloaded update has now gone live across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. With Season 4 now halfway over, Activision has pushed out its standard Reloaded patch as a way of giving MW3 more content until the start of Season 5. To that end, this new update contains massive overhauls of the meta of MW3 while also incorporating new modes, maps, and other alterations to Zombies.
When it comes to the new additions for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, three new 6v6 maps titled Incline, Das Gross, and Bitvela have been brought to the game. These maps join five new game modes, two new weapons, and a litany of balance changes for the guns already found in MW3. On the Zombies side of things, a new challenge called Unstable Rifts has been added. This mode is wave-based and will have players fighting off hordes of zombies after entering "rifts". All of this new content is joined by a ton of bug fixes that have been made to all aspects ofMW3.
To get a look at everything that is included with this Season 4 Reloaded update for Call of Duty: MW3, you can find the full patch notes attached below.
