With the first midseason update for Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0 comes a brand new game mode: Raids. Raids are being introduced to Call of Duty with the first episode dropping December 14th. Raids will fall under the Special Ops gameplay category within Modern Warfare 2. This means teamwork and strategy will be key to completing the mission.
The first episode of Modern Warfare 2 Raids being released is Atomgrad. In this episode Price, Farrah, and Gaz come across an enemy bunker.
Completing this raid will unlock Gaz to use as an in-game operator. Throughout the Raid there will also be hidden intel to unlock other in-game cosmetics.

How to Access Modern Warfare 2 Raids
In order to access the Raid you will need to acquire a Raid Assignment. At launch there will be 3 ways to get a Raid Assignment:
– Complete a specific Daily Challenge either in Multiplayer or Special Ops.
– Place within the top 20 in any Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale Playlist.
– In DMZ, use the final extract helicopter with at least $30,000 in Cash.
Once you have earned a Raid Assignment, you and your squad of three will have one week to complete the raid.

Preparing for Raids
Raids will fall under the Special Ops category. This means that they will use the same kits as the current Special Ops missions. You can level up your kits by earning weekly stars playing the different Special Ops missions. Leveling up kits will allow you to earn more passive perks while playing Special Ops or Raids. Having a high level kit can give you a huge advantage when it comes to completing Modern Warfare 2 Raids.
Warzone 2’s DMZ mode has created an exciting PvE experience for players looking for something other than standard Battle Royale (check out our article with tips for getting started with DMZ).
