Development of the sequel, which picks up immediately after the events of last year’s Modern Warfare 2, is being led by Sledgehammer Games, in collaboration with Infinity Ward, while Treyarch is leading development of the game’s Zombies mode.
“In the direct sequel to the record-breaking Modern Warfare II, Captain Price, and Task Force 141 face off against the ultimate threat,” reads a description of the game’s campaign.
“The ultranationalist Vladimir Makarov is extending his grasp across the world, causing Task Force 141 to fight like never before,” reads a description of the game’s campaign.”
Modern Warfare 3 will also introduce what Activision calls Open Combat Missions. “Not only do these complement the cinematic missions you’ve come to expect, but they also provide you with numerous additional choices regarding your methods of mission completion,” according to the publisher.
“For example, if you prefer to use stealth techniques, you may wish to undertake an OCM with a lights-out approach, using night-vision goggles and suppressed weapons and complete your objectives without your adversaries knowing you were even there.
“However, if loud explosions and reckless abandon are part of your repertoire, strap extra armor plates onto your torso and hit those targets head-on.”
On the multiplayer front, the game will feature all 16 launch maps from 2009’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
These maps have been “modernised, both graphically and with meticulous attention given to the authenticity and aspects of the maps that made them so popular”.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III just got a gameplay reveal trailer — a slightly misleading title, given most of the footage is loaded with cinematics. Indeed, it is focused on the campaign, which sees Captain Price and his Task Force 141 take on the Russian ultranationalist war criminal Vladimir Makarov, as he extends his grasp across the world. Publisher Activision has introduced a new non-linear campaign structure called ‘Open Combat Missions,' memorable multiplayer maps, and a Zombies mode set in an open world. Pre-orders for the game are now live across all major platforms.
