Update:
The Modern Warfare alpha has been confirmed just now! Read up on details right here.
Original Story:
Remember when we posted yesterday that a “special announcement” regarding Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is set to drop this Monday at gamescom? Well, apparently, this announcement is about an upcoming Modern Warfare alpha, which will kick off this coming weekend on PS4!
Over on Reddit, YouTuber TheGamingRevolution, who has been spot-on on with his Modern Warfare leaks, tweeted the following:

In case you didn’t get that, the emojis stand for “Gun,” “Fight,” and “Test” or otherwise “Gunfight test,” with test meaning alpha or beta as it’s referred to sometimes. Gunfight is, of course, the 2v2 mode revealed by Infinity Ward last month.
Over on Reddit, another user by the username Yessiree2 posted specific details about this Modern Warfare alpha rumor, stating it’s an open alpha (meaning open for everyone) for the Gunfight 2v2 mode, and will be announced this Monday, August 19 for the PS4, and will run during this coming weekend (August 22 to August 26).
Got this information from a place that obviously can’t be said at the moment. TGR hasn’t posted about it yet but he knows as well. He was teasing it a few hours ago on his twitter using a combination of emojis. Come back to the post once they announce it! I’m really enjoying the way they’re doing the announcements this year. Enjoy!
Obviously, given this isn’t coming from Activision or Infinity Ward, take it with a grain of salt. However, as we’ve said before, TheGamingRevolution has been pretty spot-on when it comes to Modern Warfare leaks, and the possibility of this being legit is high as well. We’ve reached out to Activision and will update the post if we hear anything back.
