When Did MW2 Come Out?
If you're thinking about the first Modern Warfare 2 title, then the date you're looking for is November 10th 2009. Developed by Infinity Ward, this title was the anticipated sequel to 2007's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. It followed the returning characters of Captain Price, Ghost, Soap, and Gaz as they fight against invading Russian forces.
Modern Warfare 2 actually saw a Campaign Remaster release a few years ago. That title was released on March 31st 2020, just over 10 years after the original title. While this is an excellent way to revisit the classic story, it's a fairly bare-bones title. There's no multiplayer to speak of, so only pick this one up if you're interested in playing through the story again.
Lastly, there's the most recent installation of Modern Warfare 2 which was released on October 28th 2022. This is another modern reimagining of the Modern Warfare series that follows on from the Modern Warfare reboot from 2019. If you're looking for a Modern Warfare 2 game to pick up, then this is definitely the one to go for. It features both a fully-fledged campaign mode alongside a stellar multiplayer offering. It also ties in directly with Warzone 2.0, which is free to play.
