Fan favourite map Shipment arrives today in Modern Warfare 4, just four days after launch – a new record for Call of Duty
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is adding the Shipment map in an update today, just four days after the game launched on 23 October. The early arrival is unusual because Shipment has generally been added around two weeks after launch, often as part of a game’s first live service season.
First introduced in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in 2007, Shipment is a compact map known for fast-paced matches and high kill counts, making it popular for levelling up weapons and player ranks. The new version keeps the familiar layout but moves the action to an urban-looking harbour setting; the game’s first season is due to begin on 6 November.
In short
- Shipment arrives in Modern Warfare 4 four days after launch.
- The map is known for fast matches and high kill counts.
- Season One begins on 6 November.
Explained simply
Shipment is a small, familiar map from the Call of Duty series, first appearing in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in 2007. Its close quarters make matches fast-paced, and many players use it to gain weapon experience and increase their rank.
Modern Warfare 4 is the latest game in the series, which is made by Activision. Shipment has often arrived about two weeks after a game’s launch, alongside its first season of ongoing updates, so its timing is unusual for the series.
