Infinite Warfare Disc Required To Play Modern Warfare Remastered

4.2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is getting a full remaster for the PS4 and Xbox One. This remaster is also unfortunately tied to the purchase of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare for now atleast. This means that if you want to get Modern Warfare Remastered, you will have to purchase the legacy edition of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.

According to an update on the official FAQ for Modern Warfare Remastered, the game will apparently require the Infinite Warfare disc in order to be played on the console. This limitation likely only applies to the retail version of the game as it was possible to sell the base Infinite Warfare game while keeping Modern Warfare Remastered.


There is no such choice available to those who pre-order the game digitally hence they can delete Infinite Warfare from their console and keep Modern Warfare Remastered.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered will launch with just 10 MP maps and the multiplayer won’t go live till November 4th. There is early access available for the base game for those who own the Legacy Edition digitally on either the PS4 or Xbox One.

Well this I am not that bothered about, I don't care how I get to play CoD4 I just want to play it, Plus it kind of makes sense.

Unfortunate for all the people who wanted to but CoD: Infinite Warfare for the remastered version and return IW

I really don't know if I'm going to buy this.
I probably would of bought COD 4 if I was able to

Huge bummer, although I was expecting them to do this so they can make sure people get IW. I'm just hoping they release the game as a standalone copy somewhere down the line. It would receive many sales, a majority of people are more excited about the remaster than they are about Infinite Warfare.

Bourne I just got a refund for my pre-order (Which was solely for the Remaster). BF1 will do for now.



Ive heard alot of people saying they are getting refunds but I mean I dont understand how you guys didnt see this coming. Did you really expect them to just allow you to play the remaster alone lol?

I figured that would be the case. Makes sense to me. MWR is meant to be a bonus. It isn't the Call of Duty for the year nor do they want it to seem that way. It also makes sense to sell it by itself in about six or so months. We will see if that happens.

This some straight bullshit knowing damn well we all mostly just want cod 4 remastered.
