Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (MW3) official PC system requirements

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's release is on the horizon, and Activision has officially announced the PC system requirements for the game. Developed by Sledgehammer Games, it is the first direct sequel title in the series to be launched in the subsequent year, picking up right from where previous year's Modern Warfare 2 left off. The title follows last year's iteration very closely, even using the same launcher alongside Warzone.

MW3 will also carry over weapons and operators along with their skins from Modern Warfare 2, and from a gameplay perspective, so far, appears to be a more refined version of it. With more fluidity in movement and graphical improvement, MW3 promises a lot.
