Chapter1: Strike Chapter2: Kill or Capture

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022) is a first-person shooter developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision. It serves as a direct sequel to Modern Warfare (2019) and a reimagining of the classic Modern Warfare 2 (2009), continuing the narrative arc in a rebooted timeline. Released on October 28, 2022, the game is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. The campaign follows Task Force 141, featuring iconic characters like Captain Price, Soap MacTavish, Ghost, and newcomer Alejandro Vargas. The story begins with the U.S. killing Iranian General Ghorbrani, which triggers a revenge plot by terrorist leader Hassan Zyani. Task Force 141 and Mexican Special Forces must prevent Hassan from using stolen American missiles, uncovering a conspiracy involving the shadowy PMC "Shadow Company" and its treacherous leader, Graves. Gameplay combines traditional boots-on-the-ground combat with modern mechanics like tactical AI, weapon customization via the new “Gunsmith 2.0” system, and more open-ended mission design. Stealth, high-speed chases, and global set pieces—from Amsterdam to Mexico—add cinematic flair. Multiplayer includes classic modes (Team Deathmatch, Domination) and new additions like “Prisoner Rescue” and “Knock Out.” The game also introduces large-scale “Invasion” and “Ground War” battles, blending infantry and vehicle warfare. Its progression system is tightly integrated with Warzone 2.0, the free battle royale mode that launched shortly after. Modern Warfare II received praise for its visuals, sound design, and refined gameplay, though the campaign's story drew mixed reactions. It set franchise records with over $1 billion in sales within 10 days, cementing its place as a major installment in the Call of Duty series.
