Call of Duty: Modern Warfare's weekly update came a little bit late this week, but it's now available for fans to download across all platforms. As usual, the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare update changes up the playlists available in the game's multiplayer mode, with a new Cabin Fever playlist collecting some of the game's smaller maps together alongside a variety of different game modes.
The new Cabin Fever playlist in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is a clear nod to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and how people are isolating at home, though the artwork associated with it is reminiscent of the Cabin Fever horror film that was directed by Eli Roth back in 2002. In any case, the Cabin Fever playlist in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare should prove to be pretty popular with fans, as it features some of the game's most popular maps: Gun Runner, Hackney Yard, Rust, Shipment, and Shoot House.
The game modes available in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Cabin Fever playlist include Team Deathmatch, Domination, Headquarters, Kill Confirmed, and Hardpoint. This should ensure plenty of variety, though it also means that players may be stuck playing modes they wouldn't bother with otherwise.
The new Cabin Fever playlist isn't the only new playlist that was added with Modern Warfare Update 1.18. The update has also added an NVG Infected Multiplayer plyalist, which lets players play the popular Infected game mode in the dark. The twist is that zombie players can see in the dark, whereas the survivors have to rely on thermal sights and their night vision goggles, which have limited battery life.
Another new playlist added to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare with Update 1.18 is the Khandor Hideout 24/7 playlist. Khandor Hideout is the latest new map added to the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare standard multiplayer experience, and the 24/7 playlist will ensure that players can check it out without much hassle.
Looking ahead, Infinity Ward is sure to change up the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare playlists again with next week's update. Fans will need to stay tuned for more information on what next week will bring to Modern Warfare.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
