Infinity Ward has revealed that its hotly anticipated shooter Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will feature a third-person perspective as part of a new play list mode in the game’s multiplayer component.
“3rd Person is a new playlist mode in Multiplayer,” community boss Robert Bowling told Kotaku. “So you can play your favorite playlists [or] game types, like Team Deathmatch just standard, or in Hardcore mode ([with] limited HUD and increased bullet damage) or in the new 3rd Person mode, which means you and everyone in the game is in 3rd person.”
“When you’re in a 3rd Person playlist you can’t toggle in and out, you’re always in 3rd person,” added Bowling. “You can’t toggle 3rd person view on or off in a standard game type either, people in 3rd person can’t play with people in 1st person, they’re entirely different game modes. This is just another way to play the game.”
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is due out worldwide on November 10.
