　　Now Playing: Modern Warfare 3 - Shadow Siege Reveal Warzone Event

　　The event is played out in stages, requiring squads to drop in and first disable all eight missile silos marked on the map. Once the silos are secured, the Zaya Observatory is bombarded with missiles, changing the landscape of Al Mazrah.

　　The destruction from the bombardment reveals an underground weapons facility and players must then storm the hidden compound, where Konni has been manufacturing chemical weaponry. The final task is to collect 45 gas canisters combined across all squads, but in typical storyline fashion, securing the chemicals leads to betrayal, and the Russian forces regain control of the chemicals. The Modern Warfare 3 reveal trailer plays promptly after the cutscene ends and focuses on Task Force 141 working together to take down Makarov.

　　This Shadow Siege event will be available from now until August 21 at 10:30 AM PT / 1:30 PM ET. Even for those who don't care about the story details, participants can earn six rewards and the full list can be found below.
