Barely a week since the last leak, more Duty: Modern Warfare 2 details have been found in the private alpha of Warzone Mobile.

Remember last week someone dated the private alpha for Call Of Duty: Warzone Mobile and Leaked Cards for Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2† Well, the same has happened again.

With knowledge of the maps already in the wilderness, this second datamine managed to discover more details regarding Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer; specifically a list of gameplay modes, perks, field upgrades, and killstreaks.

It’s worth emphasizing that there’s no guarantee these will appear in the final game and most of these will return from previous games, although fans were quick to take note of the new additions.

For example, while most are multiplayer modes that Call Of Duty players will recognize (e.g. Gunfight, Infected, Domination, etc.), there are a few new names: Knockout and Ground War Bomb.

The lists for field upgrades and killstreaks don’t seem to have any new additions. However, the datamine claims to have discovered four new benefits: Overwatch, Overcharge, Survivor, and Pitcher.

There are no details to explain what the new additions are, but there is reason to believe that the datamine is correct.

For starters, it comes from Twitter user Realitywho previously leaked the Modern Warfare 2 maps, as well as concept art for the next Call Of Duty: Black Ops game.

Second, several of Reality’s tweets detailing the data-mind information have been affected by copyright removals from Activision. It didn’t destroy Reality’s account like it did last time (at least at the time of writing), but it does prove that at least some of this information wasn’t made up.

We can’t imagine Activision allowing Reality to continue to access the Warzone Mobile alpha, although we’re surprised it didn’t already after last week’s leak.

In the event that more tweets are removed from Reality or their account deleted again, the full list of datamined info is compiled at ResetEra†

The next question is how much of this datamined content will be in the final game at launch. It’s entirely possible that Activision plans to include everything on the list, but won’t add it until the course of Modern Warfare 2’s lifecycle.

After all, previous entries like Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War continued to receive new gameplay modes and other content after it was released, and Call of Duty: Vanguard recently received a new Zombies mode.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is out October 28 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC.
