Under Games Convention släpptes beskedet att #Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare når butik i början av november. Beskedet kom från #Infinity Ward-bossen Grant Collier, som på samma mässa berättade att en Xbox 360-exklusiv multiplayerbeta är i görningen.

Exakta detaljer om vem som får vara med kommer dyka upp inom de kommande dagarna på community-sajten charlieoscardelta.com.
