Hardcore Mode In Modern Warfare 2 Is Making A Comeback In Upcoming Season 2 Launch
Developer Infinity Ward confirmed its return and will release further details in a blog later.
Today via Twitter, Infinity Ward confirmed Hardcore Mode would be finally arriving in Modern Warfare 2 with the delayed release of Season 2 in mid-February.
Details on the returning mode are supposed to be revealed sometime soon through a blog later this week, according to the developer's tweet.
No HUD? No problem. Hardcore is back!
Follow Season 02’s Multiplayer updates in our studio blog later this week.

Hardcore Mode offers a super competitive multiplayer experience where the heads-up display (HUD) gets removed, friendly fire is on, and players are squishy enough to get gunned down by one or two bullets.
Modern Warfare 2 had a similar challenging mode that launched alongside Season 1; however, fans have wanted the original Hardcore Mode experience from the shooter series to make a comeback.
Season 2 will launch on February 15th with new multiplayer maps, modes, weapons, and more for Modern Warfare 2. Infinity Ward will provide a deep dive into Season 2 sometime this week, which likely will line up with the Hardcore Mode details.
