Summary
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3players are being issued partial refunds after purchasing a wildly expensive $34 weapon bundle. The newCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3bundle has since been adjusted to a lower price.
Call of Dutyregularly adds new bundles for players to purchase through the in-game store, which usually include a combination of weapon blueprints, skins, and other cosmetic items. While this money-making tactic is seen throughout the gaming industry and is a mostly accepted practice at this point, fans still grow frustrated withCall of Dutyon occasion. Recently, aModern Warfare 3bundle made some Zombies fans upsetby charging $24 for items that many didn’t feel were worth the price. It seems thatCall of Dutyfans have another reason to be surprised by the franchise’s in-game purchases.
For a short time on February 18,Call of Duty’s in-game store featured the Gassed Up bundle for 3,400 COD Points (about $34), the highest-ever price for aCall of Dutybundle. Fans were shocked and frustrated by the steep price increase, noting that thepopularHelldivers 2could be bought for almost the same amount. Fortunately, it seems that the new price was simply an error, asCall of Dutyhas since reduced the bundle to 2,400 COD Points, the usual price for such an offering. Activision stated that any user who purchased the bundle for 3,400 COD Points will be refunded 1,000 COD Points. The Gassed Up bundle, which is still available, features three weapon blueprints with tracers, other cosmetics, and XP tokens.

Recently,Call of Dutyfans also grewfrustrated withModern Warfare 3’s Rick Grimes skin. The skin is included withCall of Duty’s newest battle pass, and while fans were excited for one ofThe Walking Dead’s most iconic characters to be added to the game, some felt let down by what they thought to be subpar voice acting.
