'Call of Duty' Elite content launches broken down

Between now and September, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 players subscribed to the Elite online service will get 12 multiplayer maps, 6 cooperative Spec-Ops missions and two game modes.

The breakdown was revealed in a content calendar posted on the official Call of Duty website.

This week, publisher Activision released the first two "content drops" as part of the Elite subscription, which grants early access to downloadable content for the first-person shooter.

Here's how the calendar divvies up downloads:

February: Multiplayer map
March: Multiplayer map, two Spec-Ops missions
April: Two multiplayer maps
May: Multiplayer map, Spec-Ops mission
June: Multiplayer map, Spec-Ops mission, Game mode
July: Two multiplayer maps
August: Multiplayer map, Spec-Ops mission, Game mode
September: Multiplayer map, Spec-Ops mission

The calendar notes content and release dates are subject to change, so it's possible more downloads might be available.

Activision has not disclosed how it plans to distribute Elite content to PlayStation 3 subscribers. It's also not clear how all downloads will be packaged and released for all Modern Warfare 3 players. A content collection that combines "content drops" from January to March will arrive in the coming months.
