Havoc is an upcoming game mode in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. As the name suggests, it is set to a chaotic game mode for a casual experience. It is based on gameplay modifiers, which players earn based on their kills. These gameplay modifiers can alter how a match plays out. For instance, one such modifier gives the player zero gravity, enabling them to jump around the map.

Havoc, although exciting, is yet to be officially announced. Details about the mode were first unveiled by CODSploitz, who reportedly found them in the game's files.

Since then, the footage and images of the Havoc mode were picked by numerous other reputed leakers and made public. However, details about Havoc are pretty limited since the information was merely gathered from a data mine.

This article will take a closer look at everything known about the upcoming Havoc game mode in Modern Warfare 2.

Based on the leaked footage and as previously established, the mode appears to work based on gameplay modifiers. Every player on a map gets to pick five modifiers that grant them special powers, such as zero gravity, a random firearm for getting a kill, auto-reload, and more. These modifiers are earned as players get more eliminations. However, the exact criteria for earning them aren't clear.

As for these special abilities or powers, they are referred to as Havoc Modifiers at the moment. Based on a leak by Task Force 141 Leakers on Twitter, there are 19 modifiers in the mode. The section below covers all the Havoc Modifiers leaked so far.
