Dataminers have found evidence for multiplayer classes, various game modes, and even brand new camos that weren’t in the originalModern Warfare2. More specifically,Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastereddataminers have found filesfor Dark Matter and Diamond camos, which indicates that not only was multiplayer in development at some point, but it was set to add some new content as well.

However, it remains to be seen ifCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remasteredwill ever get its multiplayer component. TheGamingRevolution has previously said thatCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remasteredmay never get its multiplayeras Activision and Infinity Ward don’t want to split the community between it and the mega-popularCall of Duty: Modern Warfare.

One solution mentioned in the past was that instead of givingModern Warfare 2 Campaign Remasteredits multiplayer back, the developers would instead releaseMW2maps forModern Warfare. So far, thefan favoriteMW2map Rusthas been added toModern Warfare, but otherwise the game mostly has remakes ofCall of Duty 4maps, like Backlot, Crash, and Shipment.

Call of Duty: Modern WarfareSeason 4is right around the corner, though, and it’s possible that it will include some moreMW2map remakes. Even so, some fans may not be satisfied by this solution, as while it would be nice to play on classic maps, it wouldn’t mimic the original game’s gameplay. For the more nostalgia-minded gamers, here’s hoping thatCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastereddoes get its multiplayer mode back eventually.
