![]() In a series first, the next mission is played from a Russian perspective, as we fill the shoes of a guard on the president’s private jet. We miss the extraction chopper and fall down a slope into a river, but Price rescues us - an instant reminder of what a guy he is. We then play as Yuri, helping Captain Price evacuate the injured Soap (who after MW2 has apparently ascended to NPC legend status) as the safehouse comes under attack. ![]() Unusually for the series, this is about all we’ll see of the US, as most of the game’s action takes place in Europe (although oddly, and perhaps in an effort not to alienate a large part of the audience, most missions are still played from the perspective of US troops). We mount an assault to take back the New York Stock Exchange, board a Russian submarine, and a high-speed chase ensues through the harbour. The logo on the title screen tells us what to expect, as “WW3” morphs into MW3 - this game is set to tackle war on a huge scale, as Makarov-engineered Russian aggression targets states around the globe.Ĭonveying this urgency, we’re thrown straight into a mission in New York, bypassing the usual COD tutorial. Jumping back into it in 2022, MW3 picks up right after the bizarre final events of Modern Warfare 2, with Price and Nikolai rushing Soap to a safehouse for medical assistance. Apparently the multiplayer, and in particular the co-op Special Ops, were such a distraction that I never completed MW3’s campaign back in the day. In fact, when I started playing it via the Xbox One’s backwards compatibility (sidenote - for some reason this required an 11GB game update, and it arguably would have been quicker to dig out my 360), I started earning achievements after the first couple of missions. With so much focus on the game’s multiplayer, the campaign is the topic of far less discussion. In November 2011, almost 11 years ago to the day at the time of writing, Activision released the Infinity Ward-developed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, marking the final instalment in a trilogy that set Call of Duty free from the confines of its traditional World War II setting, redefined online multiplayer, and elevated the series as a whole to become an instantly recognisable pillar of mainstream gaming and a reliable moneymaker for the publisher. ![]() As the final game in the first-person shooter series’ most popular and iconic trilogy, this one had a lot to live up to.
