Call of Duty: Modern Warfare — Activision reveals massive Season One content drop

Activision revealed its massive Season One content drop for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Coming tomorrow, the downloadable content (DLC) is being billed as the biggest free update in Call of Duty history.

The multiplayer content for Modern Warfare is a departure from past years, when Activision charged fees for each DLC drop or required a subscription for the entire collection. The strategy is meant to keep a large base of players together, playing the same maps and accessing the same multiplayer features for all players.
