Gun Game is a classic CoD game mode.

On February 7, a CoD player Tweeted, “if CoD drops gun game, I’m making a vid. I love that mode.”

Activision responded by confirming Gun Game is coming back on February 15 as part of the Season 2 update.

Gun Game first appeared all the way back in Call of Duty: Black Ops. Each player starts with a pistol, and each kill upgrades you to a new weapon, and every melee kill demotes a player one rank. The match ends when someone cycles through all twenty weapons, including a melee, kill at the end.

The game mode encourages aggressive gameplay, and its frenetic pace sets it apart from other offerings.

One player responded, “Yes, more party games!”

A second user added, “Finally, multiplayer is getting the love! Can we please have more news like this, it will make my day!”

Community members theorized what other party game modes could make a return. The two most popular suggestions were prop hunt and one in the chamber.

“While you guys are at it, add one in the chamber as well.”

Both game modes would be excellent additions to Modern Warfare 2, but we will provide an update when we learn more about Season 2’s multiplayer content.
