All eyes are on the Modern Warfare 3 Season 2 update, which brought a ton of new content to the game, including new weapons, multiplayer maps, and more.

However, one of the most striking additions was the return of the fan-favorite Hordepoint mode into the game, which will mix in perfectly with MW3’s The Walking Dead crossover.

If you’re wondering what the MW3 Hordepoint mode is and how it works, here’s everything you need to know about it.

MW3 Hordepoint mode explained

MW3 Hordepoint is a limited-time Hardpoint variant that intensifies the mode’s mayhem by bringing Zombies into the match as an additional threat besides the enemy players.

Taking advantage of the Zombies-themed aspect, this mode will include a slight chance for players to “acquire a Pack-a-Punch Weapon, as well as three Zombies power-ups, including Max Ammo and Instakill.”

If you aren’t familiar with the Max Ammo and Instakill Zombies power-ups, the first one completely repletes your ammo upon earning it, and the second one allows you to one-hit Zombies to kill them.

Additionally, the official blog stated that Killstreaks will also be enabled. However, players will have to earn five Zombie kills to equal one Operator kill point.
