How to play Headshots Only in MW3
Utilizing Team Deathmatch ruleset, this mode is only played on a select few small maps. As the name suggests, only headshots count when eliminating other players. No damage is dealt, and there will be no team score progression unless you hit an opponent’s head.
With headshots being the only option, lethals such as Throwing Knives or Stars can only deal damage if they hit the head. Grenades are only effective if they damage the head, too. Make sure you have a loadout that is accurate and hard-hitting, such as the MCW assault rifle, for example. If you want to perfect your sniper shot, this playlist can put your one-shot headshot skills to the test.
Hop into the Headshots Only mode during MW3 Season 4 Reloaded which will begin on June 26, 2024. The update will be available to download on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
