- The game is set to launch on November 10, 2023, for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PC.
It appears that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 fans have already figured out ways to access the locked multiplayer mode but with a caveat. It can only be accessed locally and is limited in features. However, a certain method has allowed users to explore all the features hidden in the offline local mode. It is an important feature that can allow players to gain an advantage over the others who wait for it to unlock on time.
As shared and clarified by the Call of Duty insider @charlieINTEL, the local multiplayer can be played in the offline local mode. However, Activision has its eyes set on anyone with a prepared DMCA strike for users who dare to post any content from the locked mode.
PSA: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer is playable in OFFLINE Local Mode now.
Activision is DMCA-ing all content that is shared, but if you want to get a head start of some of the maps, see the weapons.. etc. It works.

Certain steps need to be followed in order to get access to the Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer mode in local play. While connecting to servers, quickly back out and wait for the error message. The “connection failed” message will give users an option to sneakily go offline. The method appears to be working on both consoles according to Charlie.

While the multiplayer modes are a big deal, the campaign has currently attracted the most attention from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare fans. It is smaller in size —for undisclosed reasons— compared to the past releases and only lasts 3-4 hours. Moreover, the fans are quite dissatisfied with the story in the campaign, calling it lackluster and bland to play. The title is due in a day, but physical copies have already been out for a while.
