What Is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4?

Developed by Infinity Ward, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is the next entry in the Call of Duty franchise. As for what the campaign has in store, Call of Duty's website says: "War erupts on the Korean Peninsula as North Korea launches a full-scale invasion that threatens to destabilize the world. 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."

If you're curious about multiplayer, IGN's Mark Medina tested it out in his first impressions preview and said, "the impression that sticks isn’t just that MW4 is bigger or flashier, it’s that it finally feels like Infinity Ward had the space to build the version of Call of Duty multiplayer they’ve been edging toward for years, without constantly trimming it down on account of last-gen console limitations."
