The Arcade Playlist in the multiplayer mode of MW3 will be available in different maps and modes. The main emphasis of this playlist is powerups and special weapon pickups. 

Eliminating other operators in multiplayer will make them drop one of two powerups– unlimited ammo or unlimited grenades. This means you can wreak havoc over the whole map without worrying about ammo or grenades. 

Special weapon pickups are also available throughout the map’s environment. These weapons will have a special effect on them that are complete game-changers. They can be easily identified as they will have a glowing and floating animation.

  • Minigun providing a constant Battle Rage effect for improved health regeneration, resistance to Tactical Equipment, and a constant Tactical Sprint refresh

These additions are bound to make the playlist much more fun and enjoyable to players, both new and old. The playlist will be available on May 1, the same time as the Season 3 Reloaded Update will launch for the game on all the supported platforms.
