Modern Warfare 3 didn’t have a third-person mode at launch as MW2 did, so fans are wondering when the fan-favorite mode will return. Well, you are in luck, and here’s all you need to know about MW3 and its third-person LTM.

After the MW3 launch and its two seasonal updates, players are enjoying all the content that SHG’s title has in stock. This includes new features like Tac Stance or the brand-new Zombies mode set in the MW universe.

The Carry Forward feature has enabled players to share various content, including weapons, Operators, and more from MW2 into the new game. Now, players are eager for the third-person mode to also be carried over to MW3, allowing them to experience the MW2 2009 map roster in a new way.

Well, here’s everything you need to know about the third-person mode in Modern Warfare 3.

Can you play third-person in MW3?

Yes, you can play MW3 in third-person by jumping into the Juggermosh mode. The limited-time mode was introduced during Season 2 Reloaded, and it is part of the Warhammer 40k collaboration.

Also, the third-person feature is available in the MW3’s Zombies mode. Further, MW3 also offers players the possibility to access third-person through Custom Games, allowing them to enjoy this mode with their friends.

MW2 third person mode
The third-person mode was included in the original Modern Warfare 2 released in 2009.

As its name indicates and following previous iterations, the third-person mode allows players to use a third-person point of view to play – different from the traditional first-person point of view popularized by FPS games such as Call of Duty.

Although MW3 remains an FPS, with its classic first-person point of view across all modes, including Zombies and even the campaign, the third-person provides players, as it happened in MW2, the opportunity to engage in a different experience.

Aside from providing visibility to the in-game characters, like in Fortnite, this shift in perspective enables players to gain a broader view of the maps and also promotes various movement strategies. These become effective when players have an improved understanding of their surroundings.
