Everyone interested in the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare should definitely play the Modern Warfare Open Beta on PS4, Xbox One, and PC now. Because Ground War is now finally live – the largest mode in traditional multiplayer of Call of Duty so far.
Many have been eagerly waiting for this: Currently, the second phase of the Call of Duty Modern Warfare Beta is running. Since the evening of September 20, the Ground War mode is finally available to play – initially only for all PS4 players and pre-orderers on PC and Xbox One. Originally, this mode was supposed to be available starting at 7:00 PM on September 21.
Ground War is the largest mode for the regular multiplayer part of the “Call of Duty” series so far. Accordingly, many players are now eager to finally try out the new mode themselves.
This is how everyone can try out Ground War: Throughout today (September 21), the Modern Warfare Beta will be open for all players on all platforms – probably around 7:00 PM German time. Then all interested parties on PS4, Xbox One, and PC can get their own impression of Ground War (and other multiplayer modes of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare).
To do this, you just need to search your respective platform store for “Modern Warfare Beta” and download it. Once the beta is open for everyone today, everyone can enjoy the new Ground War mode.

What exactly is in Ground War?
- Ground War is basically a larger variation of the Domination mode. It is a traditional multiplayer format in a new size and not a battle royale like Blackout from Call of Duty: Black Ops 4.
- Gameplay currently features 32 vs 32, with 64 players. It is already the largest mode for the regular multiplayer of the entire “Call of Duty” series so far.
- Two teams fight with weapons, tanks, troop transports, or helicopters on a large map for control points (5 on the current map).
- The Ground War maps are larger than the regular maps. They are said to be the largest maps in the history of Call of Duty. One map is available in the beta – Karst River Quarry.
- On a larger map, the developers have already experimented with 100 or more players. However, the final player numbers will depend on the size of the map and the number of control points.
- The regular multiplayer loadout is used – meaning weapons with attachments and perks.
- Killstreaks can also be used in Ground War.
Will you try Ground War or have you already? What is your impression of this new mode?
