Call of Duty: World at War Gets Weekend Warrior Competition

The Call of Duty series of video games has offered some truly intense single player experiences, whether it was CoD 4: Modern Warfare or the most recent World at War title made by Treyarch. But another area where the franchise shined was the multiplayer mode.

They featured a variety of gameplay and highly customizable characters that could have been outfitted with different perks or qualities. The fact that the last two games are still some of the most played ones online stands as a testimony to their quality.

In order to generate even more hype for the World at War title, Treyarch has just announced that it would kick off the Weekend Warrior competition, in which players can fight it out and rank among the best ever to grace the title. Of course, this won't be in vain, as a lot of prizes will be offered for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 platforms.

“Listen up troops. If you think you have what it takes to compete with the best soldiers on the battlefield, then we have some news for you.
