Players will experience a rich and immersive campaign with unprecedented player choice, picking up directly after Modern Warfare II, all-new open world Zombies set on the largest Call of Duty Zombies map ever, and one of the greatest collections of Modern Warfare multiplayer maps ever assembled—both fan favorites and all new ones.
Launching during the 20th anniversary of the Call of Duty franchise, Modern Warfare III celebrates one of the franchise’s greatest legacies, while also charting a new course for fans.
For the first time in back-to back years, Call of Duty returns with a direct sequel as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III picks up immediately following the events of last year’s incredible blockbuster Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II.
All 16 launch maps from the original Modern Warfare 2 (2009) have been modernized with new modes and gameplay features and will be available at launch.
For the first time in Call of Duty‘s history, a vast amount of content from the previous Modern Warfare II game will transfer—or “carry forward”—and be available in the next Modern Warfare title. All weapon and Operator content that has been previously unlocked or is currently available to players in Modern Warfare II, will carry forward between Modern Warfare II and Modern Warfare III.
Modern Warfare III expands the universe for players, with much more to come in post-launch plans, including over 12 new core six-versus-six maps that will fuel post-launch live seasons and new Call of Duty: Warzone and Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile experiences when it launches.
Epic Campaign Narrative, Infamous Villain Makarov and Unprecedented Player Choice
Captain Price and Task Force 141 must adapt or die in a fight against the ultimate threat in this direct sequel to Modern Warfare II.
Ultranationalist Vladmir Makarov extends his grasp across the world causing Task Force 141 to fight like never before in this dark and gritty campaign experience.
In addition to signature, cinematic Call of Duty campaign missions, Modern Warfare III introduces Open Combat Missions, a new innovation that empowers player decisions like never before.
Open Combat missions complement the cinematic levels players have come to love for a cohesive narrative story, and emphasize player choice with numerous additional paths and choices to complete objectives.
Built to react and adapt to different playstyles—whether taking a stealthy or run and gun approach, players can truly play how they want.
