Call of Duty has taken advantage of the convulsive news of F1 to announce in an original way that the marina bay circuit It will be one of the maps available in the beta in the coming weeks. The map will be the urban circuit based in Singapore and, despite not having the official F1 license, we will see different single-seaters and references to motor competition throughout the entire mapping.
The Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 beta is just a few weeks away from launch, during the celebration of the finals of the Call of Duty Competitive World Cup, Activision is giving out codes to access the beta. It should be remembered that access to the closed beta will be available to all those who pre-order the game. The modern war title will be released on October 28 of this year.
Modern Warfare 2’s new map is a clear reference to F1
The most curious thing about this announcement has not been that Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is going to recreate a circuit as one of its playable maps, but that the way to announce it has been very original and very in accordance with the current situation of Formula 1. The announcement has been copying the way in which, in recent days, the young Australian driver Óscar Piastri has refused to race in Alpine after the team’s unilateral announcement. This unilateral announcement was the French team’s response to the departure of Fernando Alonso to Aston Martin for the following season.
The Australian driver’s tweet has been one of the most relevant tweets that Formula 1 has had in its historysoccer teams, athletes and now video game studios have copied the formula of the original tweet to make a clear nod to one of the biggest soap operas that professional sports has left in this year 2022. We will see what the map will be like in Modern Warfare 2 and if the Call of Duty saga has other surprises in store for us related to the world of sports.
