On September 17, the official campaign trailer for 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4' was revealed during the Xbox TGS 2026 Showcase.
This entry unfolds around internal conflict within Task Force 141 surrounding a now-fugitive John Price, a war breaking out on the Korean Peninsula, and an unidentified weapon capable of shaking the global order.
Following the events of Modern Warfare 3 where Price killed General Shepherd, Task Force 141 is disbanded and Price becomes a fugitive. As tensions escalate among the remaining members, Ghost questions Price's rogue actions. Ghost and Gaz are assigned the mission to capture or eliminate their former captain.
Kate Laswell of the CIA maintains contact with Price, but she too remains cautious of his methods. Valeria Garza appears before Price, and the two set aside past grudges to form an alliance against an even greater threat.
The video also depicts a Korean Peninsula plunged into chaos. As North Korea launches a full-scale invasion of South Korea, Private Park Hyun-jun and his squad launch a counteroffensive to defend their homeland. The combined ROK-US Marines engage in a desperate struggle for survival through ground combat and amphibious operations.
Amid the hunt for Price and the ongoing invasion of South Korea, an even greater threat moves in the background. An unidentified weapon of war is delivered to a dangerous figure known as 'The Archer.' What capabilities this weapon possesses and why Archer seeks it remain unrevealed.
Meanwhile, Activision is providing a story summary leading up to this point on its official blog. The narrative recaps of the prior three Modern Warfare titles can be viewed in a blog post.
'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4' will release on October 23. However, players who pre-order the Standard Edition or Vault Edition can play the campaign early starting October 16.
