No Cartridge? Call of Duty MW4 Physical Edition Faces Backlash

It looks like the upcoming Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 might skip the traditional cartridge format for the Nintendo Switch 2. Recent reports from retailer Video Games Plus indicate that the physical retail boxes will only contain a download code rather than the game data on a physical card.

The retailer has already stated they refuse to stock this version. They feel that selling an empty box with just a download code is not the physical experience that collectors expect from a retail release. This news has sparked quite a conversation among fans who prefer having a permanent physical copy of their favorite games.

Activision has not yet officially confirmed these packaging details, so there is still a chance plans could change. For now, players will have to wait for an official statement to see if a true physical edition will be available at launch.
