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 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.
As you can see from the picture the care package is huge!.

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

Good news but i think that the upgrades and the zombie maps will be later available as a DLC maybe as they did with Black ops with the zombies ! who knows Happy

Really? You would pay extra for something you have already previously paid for? :|

I would really hope it isn't WaW or Black ops maps.
They did it before. To do it again would just be taking the piss, in my opinion.

yeah, that box is a bit too large for my liking. i'll stick with the hardened.
