Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is a first-person shooter game developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision.
The 2026 Call of Duty instalment features a campaign set in Korea and also releases for Nintendo Switch 2 for the first time.
Modern Warfare 4’s three main modes, as ever, are campaign, multiplayer, and DMZ. The game is described as “a new technical benchmark” for the franchise, built “exclusively” for the latest generation consoles and PC.
While MW4’s new agile parkour mechanics and completely redesigned hip-fire suggest welcome changes to the series, its campaign story premise courts controversy.
“War has erupted with North Korea launching a full-scale invasion and the world is at threat of being destabilized,” a synopsis reads. “A young squad of South Korean soldiers fight to survive on the collapsing front lines, while 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.”
Key Features
- Campaign: Campaign drops players into trench warfare in Korea, close-quarters combat in New York, high-octane chases through Paris, SAS night raids in Mumbai, and city-wide assaults to reclaim occupied territory.
- Multiplayer: Delivers grounded, precise combat where fluid movement, player choice, and greater control define every engagement.
- In DMZ: Players operate as an off-the-books asset behind enemy lines, where every extraction run into contested territory forces hard choices about which objectives to pursue, what to secure, and when to get out.
