It’s something the community has pleaded with Activision to address over the years.
While these games are still available and playable through modern console and PC storefronts, they’ve become rife with hackers and modders, putting player security at risk. X Labs was a fan-created mod that restored CoD games such as Modern Warfare 2 (2009), Ghosts, and Black Ops 3 with dedicated servers and anti-cheat software. Thank you all for your support over the years. We are complying with this order and shutting down all operations permanently.
Today, we have received a Cease & Desist letter on behalf of Activision Publishing in relation to the X Labs project. The X Labs project made the unfortunate announcement to its players in a tweet this week. However, the project has been forced to shut down after a cease and desist from Activision. It’s what inspired the X Labs project, which sought to restore games like Call of Duty: Ghosts and Black Ops 3. While the modern games still sell gangbusters and post astronomical player counts, there is a pocket of the fanbase that yearns for the classic CoD experience of a bygone era. The Call of Duty franchise has gone through several reinventions over the course of its twenty-year history.
