Havoc is a multiplayer game mode featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III.
The mode starts off with Team Deathmatch rules, with two teams of six must eliminate each other to reach the score count of 75 points to win. As players accumulate kills, a bar located on the top of the screen will progressively fill up to indicate when a modifier will trigger, changing specific elements of the player's gameplay when one becomes active. Killstreaks are disabled (except Killstreaks in various modifiers). A maximum of five modifiers can be active per game.
