Season one of MW3 will launch on Wednesday, Dec. 6, 2023, developer Sledgehammer Games confirmed today on Twitter. The season start date came in a pair of graphics in which Sledgehammer touted the record-setting “engagement” metrics its newest creation has compiled in the nearly two weeks since launch. Along with the start date, Sledgehammer mentioned the new maps and “a ton of content” that is coming with season one, which it already announced on Nov. 17.

The Dec. 6 date had been all but confirmed previously, with fans quickly deducing that MW3 season one would begin shortly after the MW2 season six battle pass ends on Dec. 6. This has created great anticipation for the first season as Warzone fans clamor for the new Urzikstan map, MW3‘s movement, and new quality-of-life changes previously outlined.

As for multiplayer fans, they can expect two six-vs-six maps at season one’s launch: Greece and the “really small” and funnily named Meat. Zombies players can also expect Dark Aether Rifts and the V-R11 Wonder Weapon that can turn enemies into friendly allies.

Stuff yourself with all of the Thanksgiving goodies your body can handle, get all of your final season zero grinding out of the way, and get ready for season one of MW3 on Dec. 6.
