MW2 FC Event: CODBall Limited-Time Mode And Support Your Team Pick’em Minigame

As for the festivities, the MW2 FC Event features an exciting new way to play Call of Duty. Holster your weapons because the CODBall limited-time mode (LTM) is your chance to flex your driving skills.

Combine Rocket League with Call of Duty, and you have CODBall. CODBall matches two teams against one another on the pitch with a massive football situated in the centre. Everyone is strapped to an ATV as players manoeuvre around ramming one another, passing the ball, and ultimately shooting it into the opposing team's goal.

For now, Activision and Infinity Ward are withholding details on the Support Your Team Pick’em Minigame. However, we assume it'll involve players selecting their favourite for the FIFA World Cup 2022. MW2 players will likely receive some sort of bonus if their chosen team wins. 

That's everything you need to know to prepare for the MW2 FC Event. Grab your favourite Football star in the Store and prepare for some CODBall.
