Activision today has confirmed what maps will be available in Modern Warfare III at launch. And it looks like rumors from the last few days were correct. Once Modern Warfare III launches later this year, it will include a bunch of classic maps from the original Modern Warfare 2 from 2009.

This includes favorites like Favela, Estate, Highrise, Terminal, and Rust among others. Basically, every one of the classic maps from the original version of Modern Warfare 2 will be available in Modern Warfare III at launch. Which is exactly what many players have been asking for. Not necessarily for them to come back in Modern Warfare III. But to be brought back in Modern Warfare II which is currently the playable game.

Of course, there might be some maps that are not listed which tie into the campaign. As is usually the case with all Call of Duty games. In addition to the new maps, Activision confirmed an upcoming new zombies mode.

Modern Warfare III will have 16 classic maps at launch

It’s still unclear if this is the entire list of maps for multiplayer at launch, but according to an official Call of Duty tweet, there will be 16 classic maps available right away. In addition to those named above, the Afghan, Derail, Karachi, Invasion, Quarry, Rundown, Scrapyard, Skidrow, Sub Base, Underpass, and Wasteland maps will be available at launch.

Launch will also include much larger maps. There will be three large-scale battle maps that should be for a mode similar to Modern Warfare II’s Ground War and Invasion modes. Activision also confirms one “colossal war map.”

Another huge change for multiplayer includes map voting. If you’ve played any of the Call of Duty games prior to Modern Warfare (2019), map voting was a beloved feature. But it was also one that served to keep lobbies full more often. One of the big issues with multiplayer in Modern Warfare II is the trash maps. Specifically because with no voting, you just get what you get. And if people aren’t happy with the map choice, a lot of times people leave. Which results in either exceedingly long times for filling the lobby with enough players, or a smaller lobby which fills after the match has started. Potentially with uneven teams.

In Modern Warfare III, players should be able to vote for one of at least two different map options, or a random map.
