Modern Warfare 3 Zombies Threat Zones explained

MW3 Zombies is a new way to enjoy the undead experience, with an open-world twist on the classic game mode. The round-based format is gone, and now the difficulty is determined by Threat Zones, so here’s how they work in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies.

The Modern Warfare series now has its very own Zombies mode in MW3. Rather than the classic round-based mode, Modern Warfare 3 brings an open-world PvP format on the “largest Call of Duty Zombies map ever,” which happens to be the same map of Warzone: Urzikstan.

Instead of advancing to increasingly difficult rounds by killing all the undead, Modern Warfare 3 Zombies features three different “Threat Zones” to keep the challenge contained. Different missions and contracts can be found in the multiple color-coded zones, so you better be ready.
