Activision have revealed all of the perks that will be available Call of Duty: Modern Warfare multiplayer and some of them are very different to anything we’ve seen before.
The next installment of the Modern Warfare series, developed by Infinity Ward, will feature a whole host of new details being presented as part of their August 1 reveal event on the official Call of Duty Twitch channel.
Viewers were treated to a brand new multiplayer trailer and it was also confirmed that multiplayer would have a mini-map included, despite previous rumors suggesting that it wouldn’t be. There might have been tonnes of news to keep up with, but eagle-eyed fans will have noticed that the new list of perks and their functions have been shown before launch.
Perks have experienced a major overhaul for Modern Warfare as players will soon have the option to add extra perks to their guns, as well as their characters.
This will prevent players from having to put physical attachments on everything and these new perks will include fire select options, calibre changes, and more.
