Activision has shared the first details and screenshots on the upcoming PlayStation 4 remaster of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
The current-generation update of the critically acclaimed 2007 first-person shooter will ship as part of the Legacy Edition (among others) of the upcoming Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare for PS4, PC and Xbox One.
Developed by Raven Software, who have been involved in Call of Duty for a number of years in various capacities, Modern Warfare Remastered includes the full campaign plus 10 multiplayer maps, such as Backlot, Crossfire and Crash.
Not only that, but there are a number of cosmetic touches to look forward to, with Call of Duty 4 receiving a full visual makeover for modern consoles.
"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered boasts vibrant current generation visuals, with fully improved texture resolution and detail, high-dynamic range lighting, lit and shadowing VFX particles, revamped animation and audio, stunning sound and much more," said Activision.
"Fans will relive the full, iconic campaign as they’re transported around the globe with Capt. Price, Gaz and Soap across all the missions from the original game, including “All Ghillied Up,” “Charlie Don’t Surf,” and “Crew Expendable.” Players will also experience the online multiplayer mode that redefined Call of Duty by introducing killstreaks, XP, Prestige and more, and battle head-to-head in 10 fan-favorite maps from the original multiplayer mode, including classics such as “Crash,” “Backlot” and “Crossfire.”
Brian Raffel, head of Raven Software, added: “The original Modern Warfare raised the bar on video games and forever will be remembered as one of the best. It’s an honour to be developing the remaster and we are committed to faithfully remastering this classic for Call of Duty fans."
Modern Warfare Remastered will be available as part of the Legacy Edition, Digital Legacy Edition, Digital Deluxe Edition and Legacy Pro Edition of this year’s Infinite Warfare, developed by Infinity Ward.
