fourzerotwo has revealed the MW2 boxes!

On July 9th, Robert ‘fourzerotwo’ revealed the first MW2 boxes by tweeting:

“ Just recieved the first Modern Warfare 2 boxes straight off the press. Shit just got real.”

After seeing all the discussions about the “Call of Duty” brand being dropped from the title, it’s a bit of a surprise to see that the title of the game on the box reads “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2”.

Infinity Ward have been quoted saying that they left the Call of Duty out of the title because they wanted to ensure people knew it was a direct sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and is not CoD 6.

“Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2 is the direct sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. We have focused our attention on Modern Warfare in order to most effectively communicate the fact that this is the first true sequel in the Call of Duty series. Infinty Ward, the original creators of the Call of Duty franchise, has said from the beginning Modern Warfare 2 resides in the Call of Duty universe. This is reflected in the title’s package.”
