  • Above 40 — the market puts it at 99%, closing 30 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if the Metascore for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is above 40 exactly seven days after its release at 10:00 AM ET. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the deadline as the day of release rather than the specific time window seven days later.
