Activision has announced that a free trial for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is now live on all platforms. This free trial will last until December 18th, and it will let you experience some of its multiplayer modes. And, in case you’re wondering, you won’t be able to play its single-player campaign.
Going into more details, the free trial will allow you to play classic maps like Highrise, Rust, and Shipment to the new Season 1 Meat map. Plus, you’ll get access to the new War mode, and the fully co-operative Modern Warfare Zombies Mode.
NVIDIA RTX owners will also be able to take a look at the game’s Path Tracing effects. As we’ve already reported, COD: MW3 has full Ray Tracing/Path Tracing in Gunsmith and at the pre-game lobbies. In there, you’ll be able to see the first implementation of Path Tracing in the IW 9.0 Engine.
As I’ve stated, I wasn’t impressed with the game’s Path Tracing effects. The COD: MW3 devs have already done an amazing job at the game’s pre-game lobbies and Gunsmith. Even without Path Tracing, those areas look great. Yes, there are some minor image improvements. However, there is nothing particularly impressive here.
You can go ahead and download this free trial from Steam and Battlenet. NVIDIA and AMD have already released their optimized drivers for this title. So, make sure to use them. You can download them from here and here.
Finally, the full list of maps, modes, and Playlists that will be available to Free Access players includes:
- 6v6 Core Maps: Terminal, Rust, Highrise, Shipment, Afghan, Meat.
- Ground War Maps: Popov Power, Orlov Military Base, Levin Resort.
- Core Modes: Team Deathmatch, Hardpoint, Domination, Kill Confirmed, Ground War, War.
- Playlists: Rustment 24/7 (Shipment and Rust), War Mode, 6v6 Moshpit (featuring Highrise, Meat, Afghan, Terminal), Ground War, Modern Warfare Zombies.
Have fun!
