MW3 Hyper Cranked Release Date

Hyper Cranked launches at the same time MW3 Season 4 goes live on Wednesday, May 29, 2024. Players can dive into this frantic game mode at 9 AM PDT/ 12 PM EDT/ 5 PM BST/ 6 PM CEST.

As with previous Limited-Time Modes, the Hyper Cranked mode will most likely disappear from Modern Warfare 3 when Season 4 ends or when Season 4 Reloaded drops.

What is Hyper Cranked in Modern Warfare 3?

Hyper Cranked is a new multiplayer game mode in Season 4 of Modern Warfare 3. It is a different take on the traditional Team Deathmatch game mode that puts more of an emphasis on getting kills quickly to score points.

Right from the horse’s mouth, Sledgehammer Games describe it as a “twisted spin” on Team Deathmatch that “pressures you into chaining kills… within a specific amount of time before a countdown reaches zero, or you’ll explode.” Sounds intense!

Unlike previous iterations of Cranked in past CoD titles, Hyper Cranked in MW3 will give you the Cranked status as soon as you spawn in. To help speed things along, players have faster reload, weapon swap, and movement speed after their first kill. You’ll need to rack up as many kills as possible while Cranked, as this will net you two points for your team for each kill. The first team to reach 100 points wins the match.

As speed is the name of the game, we expect that utilizing some of Season 4’s new SMG Aftermarket Parts and the new Superi 46 SMG will be key to staying as nimble as possible while out in the field. We recommend you familiarize yourself with some of Season 4’s new maps to maximize your movement and positioning to stay ahead of the curb.
