Complete list of maps in Modern Warfare 3
DexertoModern Warfare 3 features an impressive range of maps, including classics from past games and fresh designs that offer an entirely new experience.
After previous entries featured smaller and smaller launch map pools, Modern Warfare 3 changed that by having one of the series’ largest map pools to date.
As well as classic launch maps, Sledgehammer Games has also introduced new core multiplayer maps every season, plus the occasional Gunfight map to keep things interesting.
