Get the full rundown of every Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III multiplayer map available at launch, including core modes and Ground War. See what's new and what's returning!

Alright, let's talk about the maps you'll be dropping into for Modern Warfare III right from the get-go. It's a solid mix of classics and some newer spots, so you've got a lot to learn. We've got 23 maps confirmed for launch, covering both the standard core modes and the bigger Ground War battles. Some of these are straight-up throwbacks from the original Modern Warfare 2 (2009), and a few are ports from MW2 (2022) that are getting a fresh coat of paint for MW3. Plus, there are hints of more maps coming down the pipeline post-launch, so keep an eye out for those!

  • Afghan (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Derail (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Estate (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Favela (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Highrise (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Invasion (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Karachi (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Quarry (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Rundown (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Rust (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Scrapyard (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Skidrow (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Sub Base (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Terminal (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Underpass (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Wasteland (Core) - Originally from MW2 (2009)
  • Levin Resort (Ground War)
  • Oriov Military Base (Ground War)
  • Popov Power Plant (Ground War)
  • Operation: Spearhead (Ground War)
  • Farm 18 (Core) - Ported from MW2 (2022)
  • Mercado (Core) - Ported from MW2 (2022)
  • Shoot House (Core) - Ported from MW2 (2022)

Just a heads-up, those three maps ported from MW2 (2022) – Farm 18, Mercado, and Shoot House – won't be part of the new 3v3v3 game mode. Also, keep in mind that the developers have confirmed one more map from MW2 (2022) will be added post-launch. And that's just the start; expect more brand new maps and even more remastered classics to roll out with future seasons. When new maps drop, they often get their own 24/7 playlists, and you'll see them pop up in the map voting rotation too.
