It wasn’t until Halo 2 that the franchise saw the ability to duel wield appear so it would only make sense that Infinity Ward would do the same with Modern Warfare 2. That’s right, you will now be able to duel wield weapons in the highly anticipated title using the Akimbo perk.

The above screen shot was taken at the Games Crazy Con that recently went on in Las Vegas where Infinity Ward’s Robert Bowling took the main stage to give us a live demo of the game. Sure, the screen shot is blurry but you can definitely make out duel wielded Desert Eagles if you look close enough.

Not to mention the below Tweet from Bowling’s Twitter:

Just walked off stage. Crowd was amazing, went insane chanting “pick it up!” when I stumbled over Dual-wield Deagles. lol – Akimbo confirmed

Modern Warfare 2 will hit store shelve for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC on November 10th of this year.
