Activision has launched the multiplayer beta phase of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on PS5 this week. COD: MW3 will feature modern versions of all the 16 launch maps that were in the original 2009 version of Modern Warfare 2. And since the beta has the Favela Map, YouTube’s Cycu1 shared a graphics video comparison between Modern Warfare 3 (2023) and Modern Warfare 2 (2009).
This video will give you an idea of the visual improvements that Sledgehammer has implemented to this iconic multiplayer map. This will also give you a glimpse at the graphical differences between these two games.
There is no question that Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 looks better. However, for a game that is coming out over a decade after Modern Warfare 2, I was expecting an even higher graphical bump. So yeah, you can say I’m a bit disappointed. After all, both MW2 and MW3 run at the exact same framerate on consoles (60fps). So yeah, it’s a bummer that the game does not look better.
Anyway, since this video has side-by-side comparisons, it’s definitely worth your time. Well, that is if you are fans of this particular franchise.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be released on November 10th. From what we know, the game will support NVIDIA DLSS 3. However, there is no word on whether there will be any Ray Tracing effects on PC.
Lastly, Activision will launch the Open Beta next weekend on PC. From October 12 to October 16, PC gamers will be able to play the beta on Battlenet and on Steam.
Enjoy!
