Modern Warfare 3 due on the Wii this year

Infinity Ward series to skip an episode on the Wii

Activision has announced that there will be a Wii version of Modern Warfare 3 due out this year.

While they wouldn't be drawn on a date or on whether the game will be compatible with the Call of Duty Elite social networking service they are adamant that it will arrive in tome for Christmas.

This will mean that the Modern warfare story will skip an episode as the Wii version of Call of Duty 4 was only released around the same time as the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC release of Modern Warfare 2.

Modern Warfare 2 was not released on the Wii due to hardware constraints although World at War and Black Ops both launched on the Wii at the same time as the other versions.

Thanks CVG.
