What probably is the best Call of Duty title, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (Call of Duty 4), as many have already heard, will be re-released again as a Remastered edition 9 years after it was released and set the bar for FPS games even higher. It will be released together with theCall of Duty: Infinite Warfarecome December 2016.
For those who are looking into playing Modern Warfare Remastered as a standalone game after downloading it when their purchase of Infinite Warfare has been activated, they will come disappointed, especially for those who want to sell their Infinite Warfare disc.

“Modern Warfare Remastered is a full game download (game disc must be inserted to play Modern Warfare Remastered).”

This also means that those who intend to purchase Infinite Warfare as a digital download, such as purchasing on Steam, then they won’t be able to play Modern Warfare Remastered as a physical disc is needed. For those who now are more dependent on using downloads to get their games, which many are, ditching their Blu-Ray/DVD optical drives, this will be a problem. Since ActiVision has not said that Modern Warfare Remastered cannot be purchased separately, then this is a possibility. But they may have to find a way to allow those who purchase their games via downloads to be able to get their own copy without the disc requirement or else they might be turning a big number of players who are looking forward to playing Modern Warfare again as a remastered edition. Trailer for the new edition was just released last week:
For those who have pre-ordered the Digital Deluxe or Digital Legacy edition of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare on the PlayStation 4, they get the first dibs in playing the campaign for Modern Warfare Remastered on October 5.
Many airsoft players also trace the influence of Modern Warfare for them to get into airsoft as they get to have put on the loadout and try their hands of simulated combat away from their keyboards and gaming consoles. The follow-up of Modern Warfare, Modern Warfare 2 (2009) even drove many crazy going for their loadout, with Ghost being the character that they based their loadout on.

We're looking forward to be playing with Captain Price and Soap again with the remastered edition which we hope would would be a more immersive experience with the newer graphics cards and video resolutions available for computers these days. Personally, I want to play the Pripyat mission again.
