Updated With Image!

Yep that's right and probably predictable Aswell.
It is called a "UAV Fyler" so far but will most likely be a quadrotor model!

Along with this you can also expect:


  • Exclusive in-game upgrades: Camo & Playercard
  • Exclusive Zombie Map: Nuketown - Take place in the past, so will be Set in the original nuketown and not in 2025.Will only be available in these editions
  • Nuketown 2025 multiplayer map - futuristic remastered version of Nuketown.
  • Steelbook case
  • Ps3 theme
  • Collectors Coins
  • Game Soundtrack


Official Trailer



This will all come in a replica care package box!

The hardened contains the above except the Drone obviously.

So what can we work out?
There will be multiple zombie maps on release.
In game upgrades? These will be a Camo an player are background.

As you can see from the picture the care package is huge!. The quadrotor looks similarly sized to the RC-XD and there are a few other stuff included also.
The steelbook looks crazy!

Now something else which catches my attention is no Elite subscription?
This assumes how elite works will change with Elite v2.

My theory as to why Elite wasn't included is simply because...
This will appeal to everyone. People who didn't want elite for mw3 couldn't get the extra which came with the Hardened edition because elite was the main aspect of the editions.
If Elite didn't interest you and you still wanted all these extras you can now have them without having to worry about elite. It means it's not restricted to those who want an elite membership next year.




Added video for more information and thoughts.

No information on the hardened edition yet but it will be available shortly.

This has not yet been confirmed by activision, but GameStop is a reliable source, and we will wait for Activision to reveal all.


Awesome we all knew they would atleast have a HE but i wouldnt mind having a prestige edition but i dont think ill be willing to pay $150+ (basing off MW2/BO) prestige edition would be nice i probably wouldnt fly it in fear of breakin it =D

either way thanks for the post Happy!!

I will probably go for the Hardened Edition if it is for the right price, I am just waiting for the details on it before I make up my mind. The Prestige Edition does sound good.

Thanks for posting Smile

This will most likely contain the above without the Drone, and a steel book of some kind in my opinion.

So what can we work out?
There will be multiple zombie maps on release.
In game upgrades? Camo? Guns? Or maybe something different. Who knows.

We can also guess that this won't be as big as in the picture above, the box will probably be similar to the size of the Black ops prestige edition, but who knows.

Dam you beat me by 2 minutes :p Must have both seen the tweet at the same time :p

I will probably get the Hardened Edition as long as it includes the Zombies Maps and the in-game Upgrades! Nuketown I already will have so aint bothered about that or the QuadRotor :p

Couldn't agree more.
Il go with Hardened edition if it comes with everything except the Drone :p
The Drone doesn't interest me to pay a high amount for it.

Its the same as all the other stuff in prestige editions its stuff for perverts, Night Vision goggles, then the RC/XD, and now the Quad Rotor!
As I say all I care about is the Exclusive Zombie Maps, that sounds fun Smile Will have to Gameshare it with 1 mate anyway Happy
