2024 video 🎅 game
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is a 2024 first-person shooter video game developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by 🎅 Activision. It is a sequel to 2024's Modern Warfare II, serving as the third entry in the rebooted Modern Warfare 🎅 sub-series and the twentieth installment in the overall Call of Duty series. The game was released on November 10, 2024, 🎅 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.[3][4]
Modern Warfare III retains the realistic, modern setting of 🎅 its predecessors and continues the sub-series storyline. The story follows multi-national special operations unit Task Force 141 tracking down Vladimir 🎅 Makarov, a Russian ultranationalist and terrorist planning to trigger a third World War. The game's multiplayer includes sixteen remastered maps 🎅 from 2009's Modern Warfare 2, with at least twelve new maps planned for inclusion post-launch. A Zombies mode, co-created by 🎅 Black Ops sub-series developer Treyarch and built around an open world player versus environment experience, is also included.
After wrapping development 🎅 on Call of Duty: Vanguard (2024), Sledgehammer Games were reportedly assigned by Activision to develop an expansion pack for Modern 🎅 Warfare II, which then changed to become a full, standalone release in the Call of Duty series. After a series 🎅 of leaks in early-to-mid 2024, the game was officially revealed in August 2024,[5] with a showcase event and public beta 🎅 also taking place in October. Upon release, Modern Warfare III received mixed reviews: it received praise for its multiplayer mode 🎅 but criticism for its campaign mode, while its Zombies mode received mixed opinions.
