Considering that Activision went ahead with a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare remaster, it didn’t really come as a surprise to learn that there could be a Modern Warfare 2 remaster in the works. Now thanks to reports from both Eurogamer and CharlieIntel (via JustPushStart), more details have been revealed.
It appears that unlike the Modern Warfare remaster, it looks like the sequel will not feature multiplayer. Instead it will be a single-player affair as both publications have “confirmed” this with their sources. It also seems that the remaster will indeed be launched on the 30th of April as per the previous listing spotted on Amazon Italy.
This is interesting because previously Activision decided to release Modern Warfare Remastered as a bundle where it was only available if gamers purchased Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. However the decision to release Modern Warfare 2 Remastered as a standalone copy probably means they’re trying to squeeze out as much profit as possible as the game is expected to be priced at €19.99.
It is possible that the first remastered title was a test of sorts to see if this is something players wanted before remastering more Call of Duty titles. In any case take it with a grain of salt for now, but in the meantime Activision has confirmed Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 which is set for a release on the 12th of October later this year.
