Cyber Attack is one of the multiplayer game modes that will be added to the live rotation soon in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (MW2). Read on to learn more about this game mode, how to play it, and the best loadouts you can equip.

How to Play Cyber Attack

Cyber Attack Overview

Modern Warfare 2 - Cyber Attack

No. of Players 12 Players (2 Teams of 6)
Win Condition Win 5 Rounds to take the match.

Cyber Attack is a game mode where two teams will have to race towards the EMP Device (Bomb) and plant it at the opposing team's Data Center.

The EMP Device has a timer of 35 Seconds before it could detonate and the team that has successfully planted the device will have to defend the data center until it explodes. Killing the device carrier will force that player to drop the device and the opposing team can grab it.

Additionally, if a team manages to eliminate all players on the other team regardless of planting the device, that team will secure a point for the round. If either side fails to secure a victory before the 3-minute timer ends, both teams will score a point.
