New operator Ghost 

Lieutenant Simon “Ghost” Riley will make his return to Call Of Duty, a British special forces operator who previously featured in Modern Warfare 2, Call Of Duty Online and Call Of Duty: Ghosts.  

New maps 

Classic multiplayer map Rust will be added from day one, which was a tense close-quarters fan favourite from Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.  

A brand new map is also being added into the fold with Atlas Superstore, which takes place in a warehouse in Verdansk, Russia.

As seen in Modern Warfare’s campaign, Bazaar is the hometown of freedom fighter Farah and will be added as a new Gunfight map.  

There’ll also be new Ground War map Zhokov Boneyard, based on the location from the main campaign.  

New weapons and modes 

Two new weapons are set to be added from day one; the previously leaked GRAU 5.56 assault rifle and Strike 45 SMG. 

Gunfight tournaments are set to be added in the new update too, along with a Call Of Duty League playlist – which reintroduces the classic minimap and adopts the rule parameters from the pro circuit.
