Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 remaster multiplayer in development claims rumour

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s remaster was lacking in any multiplayer content, but one source claims that it is on the cards.

We had been expecting Activision to release a remastered version of Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for a while now, and it finally dropped on PlayStation 4 only a couple of days ago.

However, it was very noticeably lacking in any multiplayer, which is arguably the main reason why people buy the Call Of Duty games. While its campaign mode was enjoyable enough, it doesn’t really justify the large price tag.

It is now believed, though, that the missing multiplayer hasn’t been abandoned and will be coming at a later date.

This rumour comes from TheGamingRevolution, who has repeatedly leaked Call Of Duty related information before. They were among the first to leak details related to battle royale title Warzone, so they’re considered a pretty reputable source.

Their claim is that Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer is currently in development. They also theorise that the remaster’s single-player release was a test to see how the community would respond before considering the multiplayer.

When asked if the multiplayer was likely to be added once Modern Warfare 2 is released on Xbox One and PC at the end of the month, they said they doubted it.

Activision, in a blog post about Modern Warfare 2’s remaster, clarified its reasoning as to why the multiplayer wasn’t included, which seemed to rule out adding it in later.

‘Beginning with Modern Warfare last year, the focus has been to bring players together seamlessly in one unified online multiplayer playground,’ reads the blog.

‘Rather than release a separate, multiplayer experience as a standalone pack, Activision and Infinity Ward are looking to bring more classic map experiences to new life within the Modern Warfare universe as it continues to grow and build over time.’

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered is currently available on PlayStation 4. It will release on Xbox One and PC on 30 April.
