Summary
A newCall of Dutyupdate makes collecting souls easier in bothCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2andWarzoneduring the ongoing Halloween event, The Haunting. For a limited time,Call of Dutyfans are able to redeem Halloween-themed rewards by capturing souls from other players.
The Haunting began on October 17alongside the release of the mid-season update for Season 6 ofModern Warfare 2andWarzone. During The Haunting, players may participate in limited-time game modes in both of the latestCall of Dutytitles and earn exciting rewards that may be carried over intoModern Warfare 3. Most notably, The Haunting’s Soul Capture event allows players to collect souls from enemy players after a successful kill. These souls may be stockpiled to redeem rewards from the Soul Capture event shop such as weapon camos, stickers, double weapon XP tokens, and charms. However, manyCall of Dutyfans ran into some trouble while collecting souls in matches due to a limited cap per match and low drop rate.
Following some criticism from the community, the officialCall of DutyUpdates Twitter account confirms that a newModern Warfare 2andWarzoneupdate is now live. The newCall of Dutyupdate increased the soul drop rate and cap per match, allowing players to gather a large amount of souls more quickly during the remainder of the Soul Capture event. Some players claim that the soul match cap has been increased to 18 inModern Warfare 2multiplayer matches, 25 inWarzone’sDMZ and Resurgence modes, and 30 in standard battle royale matches. The Haunting’s limited-time modes also include a soul cap of 25 per match.
The overall response to the update appears to be mixed from theCall of Dutycommunity since some of the most prized rewards still require a large amount of souls. For example,Modern Warfare 2’sanimated Ghoulie camocosts 1,000 souls, and some players believe the update should have launched sooner. The Haunting will end on November 6, so players have roughly two weeks to earn souls and get their rewards beforeModern Warfare 3launches.
Despite the high soul requirement for some rewards, the newModern Warfare 2andWarzoneupdate should be helpful for those wanting to celebrate Halloween with some appropriately themed gear. Thepopular Shipment 24/7 game modemay yield souls more quickly due to the smaller map size, but it’s ultimately up to players and their preferred game modes inModern Warfare 2.
Modern Warfare 3will launch on November 10, which is just four days after The Haunting ends on November 6.Call of Dutyplayers have roughly two weeks to earn souls and earn their rewards as Activision and Sledgehammer Games make final preparations forModern Warfare 3’scampaign early access releaseand the full game’s launch.
