Those who pre-order Black Ops 6 can earn the Classic Woods skin from the Woods Operator Pack Challenge. You can collect the Zombie Woods and Numbers Woods, too, as long as you get a certain amount of XP in MW3 and Warzone.

MW3 New Multiplayer playlist schedule 2024

MW3 playlists frequently change during the season, where some may only be available for a few hours. Here’s a look into current and upcoming playlists for Season 6:

Current playlists

• Small Map Mosh Pit
• All the Shipments! 24/7
• Drive Thru 24/7

• Hordepoint
• Bows Before Throws

Expired playlists

• Paintball
• Cyber Attack
• Slam Deathmatch

In the Mutation mode, you’ll unlock unique skills like Mutated Leaper, Radioactive Beast, Camouflaged Sneaker, and Contaminated Sludger to take down the humans. The opposite side also gains increased ammo reserves and Killstreaks to prolong survivability. Infected mode pretty much plays out the same way but with no enhanced abilities. One infected player will be chosen randomly while the human survivors avoid its capture.

Like Mutation, Arcade provides robust skills to your arsenal by boosting jump height and unlocking Ground Slams. But if you are in the mood for some zombie slaying, check out Hordepoint, an undead mode that’s similar to Hardpoint.

Recurring MW3 seasonal events

Since the Call of Duty schedule is known for its dynamic nature, it’s always a surprise to see what seasonal events will be included in MW3. As mentioned earlier, things have already begun with The Haunting event. CODMAS will likely launch afterward for the winter season.

The Haunting – September

Whether you want to go trick-or-treating or eliminate some zombies, The Haunting event is the perfect time to celebrate Halloween. Dress up with the Halloween Mask Pack to discover Happy Bunny, Devil, Paper Bagger, and Vlad headpiece cosmetics. You can also take on the role of iconic horror film characters, including a terrifying rendition of Valeria and Makarov that takes inspiration from Smile.

CODMAS – December

CODMAS has become a staple in the Call of Duty universe as players tune into a winter-themed event. This celebration will include new modes, maps, rewards, and challenges. For example, players can participate in an all-out snowfight or eliminate Santa Gnaws.
