Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be available for pre-load starting later today at 10 AM Pacific Time for anyone who pre-ordered the game digitally. Early access to the campaign begins tomorrow at the same time, allowing players to complete the story and unlock several rewards that can be carried over to multiplayer.

The official launch is set for October 27th at 9 PM Pacific Time. Here's an image showing local times across the entire globe.

At launch, Modern Warfare 2 features twelve competitive modes, ten of which are set in Core Maps. The remaining two are Ground War modes set in the larger Battle Maps.

The cooperative Special Ops mode features three missions on Day One:

Low Profile

Infiltrate a town in the dead of night to uncover intel and evidence left behind by Al Qatala before exfiltrating. Stealth is key to survival.

Denied Area

Multiple SAM turrets are preventing reinforcements from entering Al Mazrah. With the help of a vehicle, navigate through the winding streets of a suburb to destroy them; then speed over to the exfil plane to escape.

Defender: Mt Zaya

A love letter to fans of survival modes — defend the observatory from increasingly difficult waves of enemies attempting to detonate bombs. Between each wave, Operators can spend cash to get items, such as Killstreaks, Self-Revive kits, and armor plates.

The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 pre-season lasts from launch day until November 15th. The following day, Season 01 begins with the return of a fan-favorite multiplayer map, additional Spec Ops missions and, most importantly, the launch of Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 with its Battle Royale and DMZ modes. Lastly, on December 14th, Season 01 Reloaded will add the first episode of the brand-new three-player Raids, another legendary multiplayer map, and the first Warzone 2.0 update.
