Call of Duty: Modern Warfare glitch puts players into lobby with upcoming Hardhat map

The classic MW3 map might be coming soon.

A new glitch somehow puts Call of Duty: Modern Warfare players into a lobby with the upcoming map Hardhat—but it’s currently unplayable.

Hardhat is a classic map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It’s scheduled to come out in Modern Warfare some time in season three, which ends on June 3.

An image of the glitch shows the map’s filename in the lobby. Other players have reported being put into the same type of lobby, but players are kicked when the match tries to begin if a new map isn’t selected.

A glitch like this previously confirmed the existence of another classic map, Backlot, and a new map with the name of a past one, Village. The only difference is that Hardhat has already been announced.

This type of hiccup could mean that Hardhat is being added to the game soon. And with only a few weeks left until the end of the season, it would need to be.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s third season ends on June 3.
