What is Gunfight in Call of Duty?

Call of Duty’s Gunfight is a round-based single-life mode where teams spawn into small, typically symmetrical, maps with the same weapons and equipment, and have to fight to be the last player standing. If a player from each team is still alive when the timer expires, then the first to capture the flag wins the round. The first team to win six rounds wins the whole game.

Gunfight featured in Modern Warfare 2019’s Alpha and evolved throughout the year, bringing Gunfight Tournaments with unique rewards. It was also included in Black Ops Cold War but was missing from Vanguard, so players are desperate to see it return in Modern Warfare 2.
