Activision has once again stated that this year's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is a "premium release." As such, it will costR$70 USD for the standard edition. Activision confirmed this to CharlieIntel, following ongoing speculation that Modern Warfare III might be a lower-priced game.

Unfortunately, the simple answer as to why MW2 is set at such a high price is that $70 has become the new standard for triple-A games. Sony has been pushing aR$70 price tag on many of its games since the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S were released, charging more for versions that were made for the upgraded console.
