Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Battle Royale and Map List Reportedly Leaked

The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare map list has reportedly been leaked thanks to the hard work of some data miners. What's more, they have discovered something else quite interesting. This may come as a shock to you, but it seems that there is going to be a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Battle Royale game mode.

CharlieIntel reports that some game code has been dug up which indicates that we may be getting a Battle Royale game mode for the newest Call of Duty game.

Here is some of the code that reportedly indicates the existence of a Modern Warfare Battle Royale game mode, taking from this tweet of YouTuber TheGamingRevolution:

/iw8_br/gameplay/vfx_br_item_drop_white.vfx

/iw8_br/gameplay/vfx_br_player_drop_white_rbr.vfx

/iw8_br/gameplay/vfx_br_money_drop_green.vfx

/iw8_br/gameplay/vfx_br_player_drop-_green_rnr.cfx

Take note of the "br" in this code which is presumed to stand for "Battle Royale".

CharlieIntel says that they have verified the existence of this code. If you're unfamiliar with the site, they've been covering Call of Duty for ages now and are generally pretty reliable, so this is a good indication that we're likely to get a Battle Royale game mode at some point in the future.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Map List

Separately, VG Sources reports that they've been doing some investigating on their own and that they have subsequently discovered the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare map list. The list is split into two portions: game-wide maps and maps specifically designated for the Gunfight game mode.

While this list is quite extensive, only a handful of the maps were present in the multiplayer beta. The inclusion of maps on this list doesn't necessarily mean that they will be part of the final product at launch; they may be made available at a later time, or not made available at all.

Notably, the leaked Call of Duty: Modern Warfare map list does not include any references to Battle Royale in the same way that the Charlie Intel leak above does. This could be an oversight or the map for the anticipated Battle Royale game mode may have not yet been discovered.

As always, take these leaks with a grain of salt and some healthy skepticism on the side. The only way we'll know whether or not they're true for certain is when Call of Duty: Modern Warfare launches on October 25, 2019.
