VGP says Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 on Nintendo Switch 2 will be code-in-box
Video Games Plus says the Nintendo Switch 2 release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will include a redemption code instead of a cartridge or Game-Key Card, with an October launch window.
DNA Brief
Signal Summary
VGP says the box will contain only a code to redeem the game, not traditional physical media or a Game-Key Card. The retailer also says it will not carry code-in-box releases; the source does not give an exact October date.
Why It Matters
Buyers of this Nintendo Switch 2 version would receive packaging without a playable cartridge or Game-Key Card, making the release dependent on code redemption. VGP’s stated refusal to carry this format may also narrow retail options for customers seeking a physical game product.
