Modern Warfare 3 is the Call of Duty game that came out just one year after the last one. The game’s single-player mode has been in Early Access since November 2. It has since been riddled with unfavorable reviews. The quality and length of the campaign have been nothing short of a bitter disappointment in the gamers’ minds.

The Zombies mode and the multiplayer for the game will now be released soon enough, as the game releases on November 10, but the times of release in different regions have been revealed.

The game was also plagued with issues, with some players not even being able to access it despite pre-ordering it. The issues made it so frustrating for the fans that they were questioning the decision to pre-order the game. That is because the entire purpose of a pre-order is to access the content earlier.

Regardless, the game comes out on November 10 with bells and whistles. Hopefully, the additions made to the Multiplayer mode and the return of Zombies will make up for the campaign, which has lacked substance.
