A New Frontline in the Modern Warfare Saga
The single-player campaign follows two interconnected stories as the conflict escalates. Players will experience the war through the eyes of a young squad of South Korean soldiers fighting to survive on the collapsing front lines. Meanwhile, fan-favourite Captain Price returns, operating outside official channels as he pursues a personal mission against the forces responsible for the invasion.
As Price's covert operation intersects with the wider conflict, the war spreads beyond anyone's control, pushing the world toward the brink of global catastrophe.
Activision's official description reads:
War erupts on the Korean Peninsula as North Korea launches a full-scale invasion that threatens to destabilise the world in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. A young squad of South Korean soldiers fight to survive on the collapsing front lines. At the same time, half a world away, a vengeful Captain Price wages a personal war from the shadows as he stays one step ahead of those hunting him. As Price's off-book mission collides with the forces behind the invasion, the war spreads beyond anyone's control.
