About This Wiki
What this site is, how we label facts we cannot confirm, how we handle your data, and the rules of use — all on one page.
Who we are
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 Wiki is an independent, fan-made wiki covering Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, the first-person shooter developed by Infinity Ward with Beenox, Digital Legends, Raven, Sledgehammer, Treyarch and High Moon, and published by Activision Publishing, Inc. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Activision or Infinity Ward.
What we do
We collect information from official sources (callofduty.com blog posts, the Activision support pages for Modern Warfare 4, the Xbox Wire announcement and the Steam store API), from press coverage, and from community sources, then rewrite and organize it into plain-English pages. Every page carries a fact-check date, a status badge and a sources list.
Corrections
Spotted something wrong? Tracking pages — the release date, platforms, price and editions, the modes overview and anything post-launch — are re-checked regularly, and the two launch-window backfill points (October 16 and October 23, 2026) are handled on the day itself. Corrections are applied with a new fact-check date.
Three labels, used literally
Every fact on this site carries one of three labels. This is not decoration — it is the whole editorial method.
- Official sources — published by Ironhide on their own site, news feed, devlogs, presskit or store listings. Safe to rely on.
- Partially confirmed — confirmed in part, or reported by a credible third party but not on a first-party page. We state exactly what is known and flag the gap.
- Pending confirmation — Ironhide has not announced it. We say so plainly and explain what would change the answer.
What we refuse to do
- We do not invent numbers, weapon lists, map names, operators, drop rates or tier rankings. If no source exists, the page says the information does not exist yet.
- We do not pass off store listings or third-party rumors as official statements. Where sources conflict, the page says so and names both.
- We do not invent a Game Pass date, a zombies mode, or last-gen console versions. Each of those has a page that states the honest answer instead, and each gets updated the day Activision changes it.
How to read a caveat box
Pages where a claim is genuinely uncertain carry a Read this first box immediately below the summary. That box is the fastest way to know which parts of the page are solid and which are waiting on Ironhide.

We use Baidu Analytics and Google Analytics for aggregate traffic counts. Google Analytics may set its own cookies (such as _ga) to measure usage; neither service identifies individual visitors to us. Third-party embeds may set their own cookies — see below.
