The Resurgence Pack is Downloadable Content (DLC) for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, released in 2010, enhancing its core first-person shooter multiplayer experience. This package adds five new battlegrounds to the existing rotation: three original maps (Carnival, Trailer Park, Fuel) and two returning favorites from the previous installment (Strike, Vacant). It requires the base game and integrates directly into established online modes without introducing new mechanics or story elements, focusing solely on map diversification for competitive play.
The primary appeal of this expansion lies in its collection of five new multiplayer maps. This content is integrated directly into the existing multiplayer rotation, requiring the base game to access and utilize these new environments.

As a map pack, this content is entirely dependent on the base game; it is not a standalone title. Its scope is focused specifically on diversifying the available multiplayer arenas. While it does not introduce new weapons, killstreaks, or fundamental gameplay mechanics, the addition of five distinct maps significantly alters the strategic landscape of online matches, offering substantial replayability for those invested in the competitive modes.
This downloadable content introduces three brand-new multiplayer maps—Carnival, Trailer Park, and Fuel—alongside the return of two popular maps from the prior game in the franchise, Strike and Vacant. These five locations are immediately available for use within the game's existing multiplayer structure.
The content was initially released exclusively for the Xbox 360 before subsequent releases followed for PC and PlayStation 3 platforms.
