Infinity Ward and Activision fulfilled their promise and finally they shared the first trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, one of the most anticipated games for the second half of the year. The action-packed, explosive trailer once again welcomes the Task Force 141the elite special operations unit made up of Captain John Price, John “Soap” MacTavish, Simon “Ghost” Riley, Kyle “Gaz” Garrick and Colonel Alejandro Vargas.
As some rumors anticipated, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will explore, to some extent, the fight against drug trafficking in its single player campaign. And it is that Task Force 141 discovers that the Mexican drug cartel “Las Alamas” is working with the terrorist group Al-Qatala, which we already met in the previous game. Therefore, one of the locations that we will visit will be Mexico. In fact, this is the reason why the iconic group has added a new member from that country: Alejandro Vargas, who belongs to the Mexican special forces.
Beyond the Aztec country, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 it will also take us to locations in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. If the predecessor title stood out for reflecting the harshness of the war from different perspectives, the sequel aims to focus on heroic situationsbut without detaching from the “realism” that distinguishes the saga.
“This campaign is meant to be an incredible experience on numerous levels: sieges on the high seas with submarine combatexplosive assaults from 30,000 feet on enemy strongholds, and low-key, high-risk stealth missions under the cover of darkness,” Infinity Ward mentions.
Multiplayer on steroids and war zone 2 on my way
Of course, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 It will offer the usual multiplayer modes and a cooperative to carry out special missions. Regarding the first, there will be a good number of operators, modalities and maps, many of which will be inspired by emblematic locations of the saga Modern Warfare. Additionally, the California study has improved the Gunsmith system, with which it is possible to customize the weaponry. As they say, there will be more customization options than ever.
Of course, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will continue betting on the post-launch content through the seasonal format. The company promises to update multiplayer with new operators, maps, weapons, game modes, and special events. All of them free, thus avoiding segmenting the immense community of players.
What about war zone? Quiet, they have not forgotten the most successful playable proposal in the franchise today. Infinity Ward is currently working on war zone 2, and although they did not share many details about it, from the study they point out that it will inherit many of the mechanics and technology introduced in the main title. “It will have new contents and systems of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 with completely new progression and inventories.”
