Different Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 editions are now available to pre-order. Each one of them has unique perks and bonuses. These editions also have various prices and the content included scales up with the associated cost. You might wonder which MW3 edition is suitable for you to buy. Here in this post, we’ll dive into details about all the officially confirmed MW3 editions and the features that come with them.

Available Pre-Order Modern Warfare 3 Editions

(Updated on October 11, 2024 – updated links and format)

PC Version – $70
Cross-Gen Bundle – $70
Vault Edition – $100

So the first version you see on the list is the PC version of the game. This edition is all the same as the Cross-Gen Bundle for consoles, which are the base game editions. This means that the PC version and the Cross-Gen Bundle are the same thing, only for different platforms. However, pre-ordering these versions will come with some benefits.

If you pre-order one of the base Modern Warfare 3 editions for your PC, PlayStation, or Xbox, you’ll have access to the game’s campaign a week earlier than the official release date of the game. MW3 will be released on November 10, 2023, and that means you can play the story mode on November 2 or maybe 3. You can also have full access to the MW3 beta weeks coming in October for the Multiplayer mode.

But there’s one thing that you should know about MW3 base game editions pre-order. If you buy the digital versions, you’ll get all the mentioned features. But if you get the PS5 disk version of the game, you can not play the same game on PS4. The same will not apply to Xbox One and Series X|S. Now with all the info settled on the base versions of MW3, let’s see what the $100 Vault Edition has got for us.

What Are The Bonus Contents of MW3 Vault Edition?

Nemesis Operator Pack: Price, Ghost, Makarov, and Warden, each with two skins
Fate Weapon Vaults: Including two weapon blueprints with full attachments
MW3 Season 1 Blackcell
1,100 CP
50 Tier Skip Tokens

The Modern Warfare 3 Vault Edition costs $30 more than the normal version. However, you get more content than just $30 with this bundle. In fact, only the MW3 Season 1 Blackcell is worth $30. Now aside from that, you’ll get four animated operator skins for Price, Ghost, Makarov, and Warden. And you’ll get four more base skins for these mentioned operators.

And last but not least, you’ll also get 50 Tier Skip Tokens with this purchase. But you should note that these Tier Skip Tokens will be available for the first Season of MW3, not the current MW2 Season 5.
