LONDON: The makers of “Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare” Sledgehammer Games took to Twitter recently to announce that starting Feb. 13, gamers who are currently playing the game will have access to a new set of gear. According a report in Tech Times, the game’s developers in their tweet featured an image preview of what the new gear will look like.
Called the Marine Grenadier gear set, it will be available for gamers to earn during gameplay over the weekend. Gamers are likely to get the gear faster as the weekend also features a double experience points bonus. The report also says that the new gear will be part of the AWGearDrops, which means that “it will be included in the Supply Drop rotations” starting this weekend.
Other exciting new things that are happening over the weekend will be the two new modes that will be featured, namely One Shot Mosh Pit and Gun Game Mode. According to the report, these new features hope to bring in more players to come and play over the weekend.
The Gun Game Mode according to the report is not the first time to be seen in the “Call of Duty” series of games as it was already featured in “Call of Duty: Black Ops.” The objective of this mode is for a player to kill using each of the 20 weapons in the game. It starts with six players in “a free-for all duel that does not give the players a choice on their load-out.” Every player starts with just their pistols. If a player kills another player, his weapon changes into any of the 20 listed weapons in the game.
The One Shot Mosh Pit on the other hand, according to a separate report on MP1ST, is “all about your skill with a sniper rifle and various loadouts based on Advanced Warfare’s MORS rifle.”
The “Call of Duty” franchise is said to have earned a whopping $11 billion for its mother company, Activision since the release of the first game in 2003. “Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare” is widely available with versions for PC, PlayStation 3 and 4, Xbox One and Xbox 360.
