Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is feeling frisky for Valentine's Day. Infinity Ward has pushed an update to Modern Warfare's playlists that will help players celebrate the holiday, or at least crack a smile. It's not a dramatic update and it doesn't add any new content of substance, it's just something fun for the holiday. Infinity Ward has brought back Gunfight Tournaments, for one, and changed all of Modern Warfare's playlist named to humorous alternatives.
Modern Warfare's playlist names have all been replaced with Valentine's Day-themed alternatives. For example, the "Ready to Mingle" playlist is a 6v6 Mosh Pit on Rust, "Third Wheel" is a 3v3 Gunfight playlist, and "Friends With Benefits" is Ground War where players spawn on top of their squadmates. The Quick Play Filter's playlists have also been updated. Some of the new playlist names include "Hot Singles In Your Area," "Wanna Cyber?" "Punish Me," "Love Hotel," and, "Got The Digits."
As noted, Infinity Ward is also bringing back Gunfight Tournaments with today's playlist update. Gunfight Tournaments is, as the name implies, a genuine tournament playlist featuring brackets of 16 two-player teams. The farther a team climbs in the tournament, the better their rewards will be. For the time being, it's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare's most competitive mode, but that's not saying very much.
Infinity Ward also made several bug fixes in the playlist update for Valentine's Day, none of which are hugely impactful or significant. There's a fix for a bug that allowed players to use attachments that they had yet to earn, a fix for an undefined exploit seen in different maps and modes, and a fix for a bug for CDL filters being active after a player joins a party without them. Infinity Ward simply took the opportunity to fit those fixes into a scheduled patch.
All in all, it's not a particularly exciting Valentine's Day event or anything. It's still thematically fun and helps players get in the holiday mood- doing something is always immeasurably better than doing nothing, after all. Infinity Ward is just coming off of the release of Season Two, so it'd be a bit much to ask for a major holiday event shortly thereafter.
The Valentine's Day playlists in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will be available through February 17. Players should have their Valentine's fun and make the most of the double XP in certain playlists while they're able.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
