A rating from the Australian Classification Board may have let slip some details about what we can expect in the upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s campaign.
The rating, as spotted by Eurogamer, gives some hints about what we can expect from the upcoming shooter. While many aspects are obvious – violence and guns, obviously – there’s a couple of tidbits of juicy info we can gleam from the listing.

Quick warning before we proceed for mild spoilers, in case you want to go into the game blind.
The rating itself calls out the game in six specific categories, with the first being violence. While it’s mostly as you expect, the listing does confirm the return of finishing moves which “feature more graphic examples of blood and injury detail”.
Curiously, the game also gets a ‘Mild Impact’ rating in the sex category. Don’t worry, there’s no Hot Coffee style mini-games here, as “the game does not feature depictions of sexual activity.” However, there is a sequence, we’re told, set in a red light district.
Of course there’s Online Interactivity and some fruity language. Humorously, we’re told that includes the words “f**k, shit and asshole”. Lovely.
More interestingly though, we do have word that the game will feature a drug cartel. We’re told there’s “verbal references” to both in brief sequences, including one with packages of white powder that one character snorts in a cutscene. We’ll assume that it isn’t flour.
Fans who’ve pre-ordered the game will get to find out what this all means first, of course. Those who pre order Modern Warfare 2 ahead of its release in October will get access to the Campaign a week early.
