In the run-up to April 20, Activision Blizzard’s studios are eagerly constructing a series of smoke-related bundles, cosmetics, and events. It’s the typical trend that pops up every year around the start of April, but this year, the studios have taken things one step further. In a recent reveal by dataminers, it was shown that there’s a special, limited-time event coming to Modern Warfare 3 called GET HIGH, stylised as ‘G3T_H1GH’.
This limited-time mode and map will see players dive into a cyber-like neon environment, using parkour skills to ascend the map and reach the highest point possible. There are plenty of obstacles and obstructions holding players back, and at the peak, the map measures almost 300 meters. In a ten-minute-long video, one prolific dataminer showed himself playing this map, revealing how tough it is to complete it.

There are weed-themed cosmetics bundles, a special Operator in the form of a stoned sloth, and a return of the Snoop Dogg character, all arriving in time for 4/20 (April 20). Not a lot is known about the GET HIGH event, aside from the fact it is being released into MW3 ‘in tribute’ to 4/20 and it won’t be around for very long. It’s assumed that there will be some kind of on-theme reward for completing GET HIGH, but what that is, nobody knows – not even the dataminers.
Here’s the video that I just mentioned:
It looks like enough fun on the surface, even if it doesn’t add much in the way of substance. It’s certainly one of the more inventive modes that Activision’s studios have cooked up. It also looks to be one of the only Call of Duty game modes to feature absolutely no combat, with players instead relying on simply moving to achieve their objective. It’s not clear when GET HIGH will arrive in Modern Warfare 3, but I’d assume it’ll be either on or just before 4/20.
Are you excited to try out something new in Modern Warfare 3? Will you be grinding GET HIGH to try and reach the highest point?
