Sledgehammer Games has pushed the final update for Modern Warfare 3. After being supported for nearly two years since its release, the developers are now ready to pull the plug on the game. However, it doesn’t mean that MW3 won’t be playable after the latest patch. It simply implies that the title won’t be receiving any new content updates or patches in the future.

MW3 or MWIII was launched in 2023. Initially, the title wasn’t well-liked in the community. The Campaign was a major letdown, the Multiplayer experience was lacklustre, and the open-world Zombies formula didn’t fit well among all. However, Sledgehammer Games didn’t give up. They constantly pushed new updates to keep fans entertained. Soon enough, opinions about the game started to change, and many deemed it to have the best Multiplayer mode among the recent Call of Duty releases.

So, without any further ado, let’s take a closer look at what the final update for Modern Warfare 3 brings to the table.
