Modern Warfare 3 DLC Date Confirmed for Xbox Live

Infinity Ward has good news for Call of Duty Elite Xbox Live subscribers. The first DLC for Modern Warfare 3 will hit Xbox Live as early as January 24th, 2012. According the the Creative Strategist at Infinity Ward, Robery Bowling, the downloadable content will have a creator variety when compared to DLC packs of previous Call of Duty games.

“The way we’re doing downloadable content this year is unlike we’ve never done before. Not only in how you can get it – in content drops or choose for the collection – but also the type of content you’re getting. We’re doing more than just maps. We’re going to do Spec Ops missions and a variety of things that players have never seen before,” he said. ”That’s the great thing about having three developers that are contributing to the season of content. You have Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer and Raven all pitching in. The full season of content for Modern Warfare 3 kicks off for Elite subscribers on January 24 on Xbox Live.”

Truly glad to see that Activision is allowing these developers to stray away from the old and press on into newer ventures, even if those ventures are still within the Call of Duty Walls. Hopefully we may even see new game modes in the future as well.
