What is the MW3 Arcade playlist?
This particular playlist features powerups which are dropped on the body of an eliminated player. By picking up a powerup, you’ll get one of two abilities, either unlimited ammunition or unlimited grenades. Without a doubt, you’ll be able to deal some serious damage with these abilities, but powerups only remain active for a limited-time.
That’s not all, as the Arcade playlist also has special weapon pickups. These weapons will randomly spawn around the map and you’ll have to race to pick them up.
According to Activision, these weapons include a “Punch Knife with a dramatically increased lunge distance, the MORS Sniper Rifle and Riveter Shotgun loaded with explosive projectile rounds, and a Minigun that provides a constant Battle Rage effect for improved health regeneration, resistance to Tactical Equipment, and a constant refresh on your Tactical Sprint.”
The Arcade playlist is sure to set a new pace in MW3 multiplayer when the game mode launches with the Season 3 Reloaded update on May 1, 2024.
