Modern Warfare 2 now dubbed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, boxart revealed

July 9th, 2009 Posted in FPS, Multiplayer, PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360

Originally, the only true sequel of the Call of Duty franchise was known as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. However, Activision ripped the prefix out of the game’s official title, and referred to the game as simply Modern Warfare 2. Today, we find out that Activision has decided to slap the prefix back on to the title for the golden release.

“We have focused our attention on Modern Warfare in order to most effectively communicate the fact that this is the first true sequel in the Call of Duty series. Infinity Ward, the original creators of the Call of Duty franchise, has said from the beginning Modern Warfare 2 resides in the Call of Duty universe. This is reflected in the title’s package.”

Along with this statement, Infinity Ward’s director of communications and community manager Robert Bowling revealed in a Twitter update that he had received the first two official boxes of the game “straight from the press” and included a photo of them.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be hitting Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and the Xbox 360 on November 10th.
