Modern Warfare 2 might feature classic maps from the entire Call of Duty franchise as paid DLC

The first leak from TheGhostOfHope stated that Modern Warfare 2 (2022) might feature almost all multiplayer maps from the original iteration as year two content. This news has caused the community to grow very excited as some of the maps from the original iteration remain fan-favorites among players even to date.

However, a recent post by TheGhostOfHope has stated that these maps might come as part of the 'greatest hit map pack,' which is being developed to celebrate 20 years of success for the Call of Duty Franchise.

However, based on the leaks, this map pack will not only feature classic maps from the original Modern Warfare 2 but also contain the best maps from other Call of Duty titles from Infinity Ward, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer.

TheGhostOfHope has also stated that this map pack will be released as paid content and this news rains on the parade of those hoping for this to be free content.

This news has brought mixed reactions from the community. While many are okay with this being a paid DLC, many others are concerned that this will cause further fragmentation of the lobbies, leading to high wait times for matchmaking.

This concern comes from the fact that many might not indulge in a paid DLC, leading players who have brought the DLC to wait in high queue times while the system finds similar players to play together.

Many among the community are also crossed over that they already have to shell out quite a significant amount for the game itself. Beyond that, paying for a map pack that will contain legacy maps makes quite a few players feel very disgruntled.

While the community is up to its usual reactions, players should also remember that this news comes to the community as a leak. As such, they are to take it with a grain of salt and wait for an official announcement from the company.

However, no one can deny that they are quite excited to taste the legacy maps in the upgraded graphics and gameplay of Modern Warfare 2. As such, fans will be waiting for the arrival of this map pack.
