A handful of Los Angeles Rams players were invited to an Activision event on Tuesday night where they got to play “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II” – which is set to release on Oct. 28. The game is likely still in its development stages with nearly three months to go until release day, so players were probably asked not to share any details from the event.
Inadvertently, however, rookies Quentin Lake and Cameron Dicker leaked some info on their Instagram stories. Dicker shared (and then deleted) an image of the multiplayer lobby – which, in reality, doesn’t give much away.

Lake also posted a short video on his story that shows a brief second of gameplay. It looks like a campaign mission, which has already been shown previously by Activision.

Another player shared a shot of the menu, which all but confirms DMZ mode will be in the game after there was plenty of speculation that it would be included.

Did they break their embargo by releasing images and videos of the game? Yeah, probably. But it’s not like they leaked a 10-minute gameplay video.
