Huge news for petrolheads - Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II will feature a new F1-inspired map based on the Marina Bay Circuit in Singapore.
Though it's less than a minute long, the trailer has been received with a raucous reception on YouTube from fans of the series as well as the sport. Showing off the pitlane and paddock complex lit up at night, there are even cars that speed past, possibly offering an... environmental hazard for players to avoid.

“The Modern Warfare II beta is set to feature a robust multiplayer experience going beyond the Core 6v6 experience with a variety of meticulously designed maps of various sizes, and an equally impressive set of Modes, Progression experiences, and other aspects that will be more thoroughly revealed at Call of Duty: Next," said Infinity Ward of the multiplayer modes in the upcoming entry. Those who have pre-ordered on PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5 will gain access to the beta between 18 and 20 September. Find the full details for the beta here.

Recalling Microsoft's acquisition of Activision, Sony has aired its concerns that the deal sways the market in Microsoft's favour significantly. “Call of Duty is so popular that it influences users’ choice of console, and its network of loyal users is so entrenched that even if a competitor had the budget to develop a similar product, it would not be able to rival it," said the company, describing Call of Duty as an "essential" in any gamer's library. If regulatory bodies agree with Sony's stance, then the terms of the agreement may require revision.
