For the unaware, an Infected Mode in Call of Duty is where players (survivors) can team up against zombies. The catch for a survivor is to stay away from zombies. If a zombie infects a survivor, the survivor will join the team of zombies against the remaining survivors.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare II is all set to launch on October 28, with a Warzone 2.0 coming later. According to another leak, Activision will be commencing the open beta in September. Fans can now pre-order the game for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles.
