There’s an interesting new rumor about Call of Duty Modern Warfare III that is absolutely not what you think it is.
The new rumor is that Call of Duty Modern Warfare III’s first maps are coming from Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. No, not Call of Duty Modern Warfare II from last year. We mean Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, the game developed by Infinity Ward in 2009, that was published in Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Windows, macOS, and later on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Now, casuals may not see the connection, but those Call of Duty players who followed the franchise for years will see where Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty Modern Warfare III intersect.
As the most recent Call of Duty Modern Warfare III trailer has shown us, this new upcoming game will be all about the chase for Vladmir Makarov. Makarov is the head of Russia’s Ultranationalist party, and in the events of the original Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, Soap MacTavish and company attempt to stop him from starting a world war between Russia and the rest of the world.
It goes without saying that there are a lot of unusual and unfortunate parallels with that original storyline that is now well over a decade old, and some real life events going on in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine today.
On a gameplay level, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 has some of the most memorable, perhaps even beloved, maps in the entire franchise. Aside from a conventional story campaign, it also had multiplayer and a separate spec ops mode that we could see return today.
We should acknowledge here that one of the maps that has long made Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 infamous, not just in the franchise, but in video games in general, is the “No Russian” level. Again, given the odd convergence with real life events, it’s hard to predict what Sledgehammer Games intends to do today, if they plan to include that level, or recontextualize it, change it completely, or just omit it entirely. We know that this is a different timeline to the original Modern Warfare games of the 2000s. That provides Sledgehammer Games an opportunity to do something exciting, or shocking, with the original storylines in 2023. At least, we know there’s something they could do here.
And now, the complete cloak of secrecy that Call of Duty Modern Warfare III seems to have been under sure looks like it’s a deliberate choice, isn’t it?
Call of Duty Modern Warfare III will be releasing on November 10, 2023, on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows via Steam and Battle.net.
Hardware giant Nvidia is ceasing operations of its GeForce Now streaming service in Russia.
Last week Activision and developer Sledgehammer Games officially unveiled Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III via a quick trailer that teased a lot of things – the return of Vladimir Marakov, the infamous “No Russian” mission, and more. What we didn’t get was a lot of uncut gameplay. Thankfully, Activision just served up a meaty chunk of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III during today’s Geoff-Keighly-produced Gamescom Opening Night Live show.
Various countries are in a quest to reach the moon and that includes India and Russia. Notably, while India is on the verge of fulfilling its mission to Land on the Moon through the Chandrayaan- 3 spacecraft, Russia's ill-fated spacecraft Luna-25 crashed on August 20. Let's take a look at how both of these Lunar Missions are different from each other.
Now that Activision has finished their official reveal for Call of Duty Modern Warfare III, we now know what fans were excited about, even if the rest of the world wasn’t fully aware of what the game was.
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.
Activision has released the first gameplay trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It’s coming to Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC via Steam, the Microsoft Store and Battle.net. Check it out below and watch Task Force 141 going up against Vladmir Makarov and his forces.
Unlike the original Modern Warfare trilogy, 2023's Modern Warfare 3 won't be the end.
The Shadow Siege event is still playable for a limited time, but here's what led up to the Modern Warfare 3 reveal.
Minutes ago in Call of Duty Warzone 2.0, the first in-engine trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III was revealed. The trailer mainly focuses on the new MWIII campaign, which looks to be fairly dark and intense, with references to past CoD campaigns and memorable moments, including the infamous “No Russian” mission. How that mission, which controversially had players take part in a mass killing, will be adapted for 2023 remains to be seen. You can check out the trailer for yourself, below.
