The free access period for Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer has begun today (December 15), and will run until December 19.
The free access version of the game will allow players who don’t own Modern Warfare 2 to play its multiplayer mode for the next few days. The offering is somewhat limited however, with just three maps and four modes available free of charge.
Those four modes consist of Team Deathmatch, Domination, Hardpoint and Kill Confirmed. The available maps meanwhile, are Farm 18, El Asilo and the newly-added Shipment.
Additionally, the free access period will include the new Third-Person Playlists, which moves the camera from the traditional first-person to an over-the-shoulder view, giving players a greater awareness of their surroundings.
Shipment is a classic map from Call of Duty history – and launched in Modern Warfare 2 on December 14 with a new twist. Shipment battles will no longer take place on land – as the map has been moved onto a cargo ship sailing “treacherous international waters,” according to a post on the Call of Duty website.
