Popular modes Gun Game and Gunfight could arrive soon in Modern Warfare 2, according to a trusted leaker.
The Season 01 Reloaded update added new map Shipment and multiplayer mode Bounty to Modern Warfare 2, but there’s still a lot of content to come with Season 02 just around the corner.
Early leaks have pointed towards the classic Castle map making a return to the sequel, as well as operator Daniel ‘Ronin’ Shinoda, who was last seen in Call Of Duty: Mobile.
Now, a new leak has indicated that you’ll find two classic multiplayer modes, Gun Game and Gunfight, making a return to Modern Warfare 2.
Both modes were available to play in the 2019 version of the game. Gun Game was later added to Vanguard through the Season 4 update and Gunfight last appeared in Black Ops Cold War.
The leak was first spotted on Twitter, where pictures of the logos for both modes were posted.
Shortly after, leaker Hope commented on the image, agreeing that it’s referring to Gun Game and Gunfight.
In case you’ve forgotten what each mode entails, Gun Game starts with all players having the same gun and loadout. Each kill will reward you with a new, better weapon and you win the game by scoring a certain number of kills (usually 18).
On the other hand, Gunfight sees two small teams (2-3 players) compete against each other in smaller maps, using identical weapons and equipment with no health regeneration. The goal is to eliminate the other team in permadeath rounds.

Knockout, which is a new mode that launched alongside Modern Warfare 2, takes elements from 2v2 Gunfight – except it’s a 6v6 mode and you’re allowed to revive teammates.
While nothing has been confirmed yet, the timing of the leaked images would suggest that Gun Game and Gunfight could be added with the Season 02 update.
Most players seemed more excited about the prospect of Gunfight arriving to Modern Warfare 2, as well as Gunfight Tournaments – a limited time competition where you can earn rewards.
I hope Gunfight Tournament returns.

The same leaker also shared the game mode icons for Cranked and Plunder for Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2, with no additional info about when they’ll be released.
As always, it’s wise to take these leaks with a grain of salt, and wait until official confirmation comes from Activision or Infinity Ward.
