Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is at its best in missions like this where it is presenting things how they are, no matter how sad, angry, or disturbed it may make the player feel. It stirred an emotional reaction out of me that I haven’t experienced in games before. I was out of breath by the time the level was over and I was somewhat shaken. When you play through an attack on Piccadilly this confronting so early in the game, it hits you hard. Infinity Ward spoke about rebooting the franchise because what is considered ‘modern warfare’ has changed and they’re right. Men with fully-automatic weapons jump atop vehicles and shoot directly downwards before beginning to spray everyone around them suicide bombers run out of the subway and takedown innocents cowering in the streets, and for the most part, you feel utterly helpless. I kinda wished the game was just all her story, but it’s not, it’s about Americans helping save her and her country because, at the end of the day, it's Call of Duty.Įarly in the game, you’re introduced to the terrorist organisation Al-Qatala as they attack Piccadilly Circus in London and you play as special forces Kyle Garrick attempting to put a stop to the ensuing chaos around you. You’ll learn of her past, what she’s been put through because of the Russian invasion of her country and what she’s striving to take back. The leader of these rebels is Farah Karim, played by Claudia Doumit and is easily the most interesting character in the game. Russian holds Urzikstan, but not without trouble as they currently attempt to fight off the rising rebel forces.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare takes a look at war like the series has never done before, but as much as the content is shocking and eye-opening, the story itself never grabbed me and some history-changing to fit the game’s narrative rubbed me the wrong way.Įverything centres around the fictional country of Urzikstan which is under occupation from Russian forces who invaded the country many years prior. When you begin the campaign - actually, anytime you click into the campaign menu - you’re warned the game contains graphic and highly adult themes that may upset some, and they’re not exaggerating. And as you move through the campaign any load screens are hidden behind cutscenes making it possible to play through the whole thing like one 4-5 hour continuous movie.

Smug smiles by Captain Price are not lost behind his beard and instead become memorable moments in a game that truly feels like a movie someone caught between directing duties from Kathryn Bigelow and David Ayer. The character models are easily some of the best I’ve seen.
Stunning environments that take you through jungles, war-torn cities and a city under attack are all the most realistic looking COD has ever been. It’s impossible to not be in awe by Call of Duty’s visuals and sound this year as it’s better than ever. But what they lose amongst all of this is the addictive multiplayer that had me hooked with Black Ops IIII’s selection of modes. This year, Infinity Ward returns with a reboot of the Modern Warfare franchise and that includes a brand new, thrilling, scary and haunting story that sees the return of some fan favourite characters from the original Modern Warfare trilogy.
Last year Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII skipped out on any form of a single-player campaign and instead focused on the multiplayer slice of the COD cake and, in my opinion, it worked.
