The upcoming release of Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® III is quickly approaching its November 10 PC launch date on Battle.net and Steam. In partnership with Sledgehammer Games, Call of Duty PC lead developer Beenox has ensured players have over 500 customization options at their fingertips, with 4K graphics and Ultrawide support, and a massive array of options across all manner of settings. We’re also excited to share some of the highlights coming to the PC version of the game.

But first, let’s take another look at the incredible PC trailer:

Get the Ultimate PC Modern Warfare III Experience with Performance Multiplying DLSS 3

DLSS 3 is a breakthrough in AI-powered graphics that boosts performance while maintaining great image quality and responsiveness. Building upon DLSS Super Resolution, DLSS 3 adds Frame Generation for GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs to create additional high quality frames and integrates NVIDIA Reflex low-latency technology for optimal responsiveness. When you play with other GeForce RTX GPUs, you can activate DLSS Super Resolution to accelerate your frame rates and enhance your Modern Warfare III experience. There are a couple of additional graphical presets for PC players to look for, and check out, as you adjust the visual quality that’s right for you.

NVIDIA Reflex - Best PC Responsiveness

NVIDIA Reflex revolutionizes low-latency gaming, giving Modern Warfare III PC gamers the ultimate experience with incredible responsiveness. Pinpoint accuracy and timing are key to overcoming Modern Warfare III’s most intense gunfights and missions; NVIDIA Reflex reduces system latency, making gameplay smooth and more responsive, delivering the reaction time needed to compete at the highest levels.
