Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered could be getting a standalone release after all

In a not totally unsurprising development, a recent leak suggests that the remaster of one of the finest games in the Call of Duty franchise may well be getting a standalone release after all.

The news comes by way of the folks at Charlie Intel who received some pretty convincing images of a PS4 box for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered.

A tipster has sent us over images of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered's game case, confirming the title will be available standalone at retailers in the near future.

Other supporting information seems to suggest a June 20 release or a June 27 release. Needless to say, that seems to apply to PS4, and if indeed this is happening, it's not unlikely that Sony would have some kind of early exclusivity for it.

Nevertheless, there's a photo of the box and a $39.99 price which, frankly, is a bit steep considering it's a remaster of an old game that many have been playing since last November. If it's coming out on PS4 though you'd expect an Xbox One version to follow.

So if you really wanted this but didn't want to stump up for the Infinite Warfare Legacy Edition, your wish, it seems will come true after all. It's not like we ever expected Activision not to milk this cash cow for everything it can get, right?
