Campaign and Special Operations

Task Force 141 is facing its greatest threat: a new threat aligned with deep and unknown connections. Familiar heroes return and new allies are formed in a traveling operation that includes missions to Europe, Asia and America.

This campaign promises to be an incredible multi-layered experience: offshore sieges with underwater combat, explosive assaults from 30,000 feet high above enemy strongholds, and high-profile stealth missions in plain sight and under the cover of darkness.

At your side are iconic teammates: Captain John Price, leader of the team; experienced Sergeant Kyle "Gaz" Garrick; the lone wolf himself, Simon "Ghost" Riley, fan favorite; fearless Sergeant John "Soap" MacTavish; and the team's newest member, Colonel Alejandro Vargas, an incorruptible Level 1 operator and member of the Mexican Special Forces.

After the Campaign, players can join their duo for advanced Special Operations. This tactical co-op mode allows you to improve your team building skills and sets the scene for the almost endless hours of gameplay available in the world-class multiplayer mode.

Multiplayer: Next Generation Innovations

Those who pre-order and enter Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II Multiplayer at launch will be among the first to try out and level up the multiple basic weapons, explore a wide range of maps and modes, meet an international cast of Operators, and much more.

With new ways to play and numerous innovations in gameplay, including a revamped gunsmith that offers never-before-seen customization, Modern Warfare II will start from day one, ready to welcome newcomers and fierce competitors.

The first to fight will also be well prepared for an incredible post-launch calendar, which will include a huge amount of free post-launch content with new maps, modes and special events not to be missed.

Modern Warfare II - Technically Speaking

Starting with Modern Warfare II, the new title is equipped with the new next-generation engine that debuted with Modern Warfare (2019). Modern Warfare II will be the most advanced Call of Duty in history, with a truly immersive experience thanks to extraordinarily realistic sounds, lighting and graphics.

Modern Warfare II features a physics-based materials system that enables state-of-the-art photogrammetry, a new tiles-based hybrid streaming system, a new PBR decal rendering system, volumetric lighting throughout the gaming world, 4K HDR, and a new GPU geometry pipeline. All this is in the service of a huge film campaign.

The game also features a new advanced AI system. Enemies and friends, both in the Campaign and in Special Operations, act tactically, using combat and maneuvering techniques in cover that would be second nature to a Level 1 Operator.

Next-generation Warzone for Call of Duty and additional content

October 28 marks a new beginning for Call of Duty, starting with the release of Modern Warfare II. Soon after, an entirely new Warzone will be launched as an extension of the Modern Warfare II universe. With it comes new technologies, new features and new gameplay that work perfectly together. In all of this, we've taken a wide range of community feedback to heart. To deliver a cutting-edge experience, Warzone 2.0 will showcase new Modern Warfare II content and systems with brand new progression and inventories. Today's Warzone will continue to be a separate experience that will include a continuation of player progression and inventories within the Warzone experience. We look forward to sharing more details soon.

The development of the all-new and dynamic Warzone 2.0 experience is also led by Infinity Ward, along with Raven Software. The new Warzone, a free-to-play battle royale, comes with the same technology that powers Modern Warfare II, so both titles leverage the Call of Duty engine that first debuted with Modern Warfare (2019), delivering the smoothest and most advanced Call of Duty experiences ever.

In addition, we will have more information about the new sandbox mode and the brand new game space as we approach launch.
