Activision stopped short of revealing exactly when thebigModern Warfare 2campaign revealwill take place, but reputable leakers have pointed to early June.

According to the latest leaks, which fans should take with a grain of salt, theModern Warfare 2campaign reveal could happen on June 8. Alternatively, the game may be featured atGeoff Keighley’s Summer Game Feston June 9 instead, or even the Xbox & Bethesda Showcase that’s scheduled for June 12. Whatever the case may be,Call of Dutyfans can likely expect more info sooner rather than later.
