What are your free PlayStation 4 games for this month?

Call of Duty is probably the most recognizable title in the world. The latest addition to the title was the free-to-play battle royale named Call of Duty Warzone, which has been an instant success. For this month, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is free for all PS+ users. Modern Warfare 2 was launched over a decade ago, but it remains one of the best entries in the CoD franchise.

Modern Warfare 2, released in 2009, was developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision. A remastered version with better visuals was released on March 31, 2020, for PlayStation 4 and on April 30 for Xbox One and Windows. However, only the campaign mode is available with this version where you defend the country from a Russian invasion. The game has enthralling action-packed sequences. While the game received a lot of accolades, it was criticized for falling short on innovation.
