“Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare multiplayer combines a fluid momentum based movement system, player focused map design, deep customization, and a brand new combat system to create an intense gameplay experience where every second counts,” the game’s official website noted. One of the upcoming game’s highlights included in the beta is the Combat Rigs, described as the “ultimate combat systems.”

Further describing the Combat Rigs, the post reads below.

“Each Rig is a cutting-edge, tactical combat suit worn by the player and is built for totally different styles of play. Designed as the cornerstone to a player’s loadout and play style, Rigs allow for a high level of power and customization through their selectable ‘Payload’ and ‘Trait.’ A Payload is either a high power weapon, or ability that opens up new strategic gameplay. Traits are persistent abilities which reinforce and complement each playstyle. Each Rig is outfitted with 3 distinct Payloads and 3 unique Traits to choose from before entering combat. Choosing a Rig provides strategic options for players, as Rigs provide a customized suite of tactical options for every engagement.”

The Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare beta will also offer two of the four Mission Teams, allow the players to enlist in the JTF Wolverines, give access to three maps (Frontier, Frost, and Throwback), try the fan-favorite game modes (Team Deathmatch, Domination, and Kill Confirmed) as well as the new one called Defender. The beta will also let COD fans to experience early the new weapon progression system, Crafting, and Prototypes.
