Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Season 1 Reloaded is now live, introducing various exciting elements to the game. Alongside Infected, three other modes have been introduced, accompanied by two new weapons, one MP map, and certain features. This update also includes important game-balancing features like weapon adjustments, bug fixes, and other improvements.

The introduction of these new modes allows fans to rejuvenate their gameplay and have a truly fun time. This article will highlight all details related to Infected in Modern Warfare 3.


Infected mode in Modern Warfare 3 explained

The Infected mode is not new to the franchise and has been featured in various Call of Duty titles. It was first introduced in the original Modern Warfare 3 back in 2012. The functionality of this mode has changed over time, and with each new title, new features have been introduced in it.

When you start playing the latest version of this mode, one player is randomly assigned as the Infected, while the others are termed as Survivors. The former's main goal is to attack normal players and eliminate them. Once killed, gamers transform into zombified Operators and join the Infected side.

The Survivors must navigate through challenges to keep away from being infected and avoid elimination. If the zombified players manage to eliminate and transform all the players in the match, they emerge victorious. On the other hand, if the Survivors manage to survive until the time runs out, they win.
