    Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 review: Infinity Ward delivers a course correction with an eight-hour campaign and DMZ

    Eurogamer's review calls Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 the series' high point in seven years, with Infinity Ward delivering a needed course correction across campaign, multiplayer, Kill Block and DMZ. The campaign runs about eight hours, has missions where you play as the opposing side and face moral choices, and introduces a crafting system in the Stranded level. Multiplayer keeps the Modern Warfare feel and sound design but still has weapon balance and respawn issues, while DMZ is described as a more casual extraction shooter sitting between PvE and PvP.

    Modern Warfare 4's Multiplayer Is the Best Call of Duty Has Been in 7 Years

    Modern Warfare 4's multiplayer is being called the best Call of Duty has been in seven years. After two back-to-back Black Ops games, its subtle tweaks to movement, gunplay, and aesthetic are noticeable to longtime players. The last Call of Duty that truly captivated the author was 2019's Modern Warfare.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 review roundup puts PC Metacritic average at 86

    After Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 launched on October 23, Metacritic's PC average stood at 86 from 25 scored outlets, all positive. IGN gave it 7, calling the campaign the best in the Modern Warfare series since the 2019 reboot while faulting some stealth sections and the melee counter system. GameSpot gave it 8, naming DMZ the standout mode with Hajin as the largest map in series history, and said most of the 12 launch multiplayer maps lack novelty.

Several outlets call the campaign the series' best in years and praise DMZ, while multiplayer maps and matchmaking draw criticism. The Switch 2 port is described as less detailed than other versions but adequate.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is out now, and its multiplayer map Kill Block combines two End Slabs and one Central Slab that recombine after each match, with more than 500 possible layouts at launch. The map supports 3v3 and the new 10v10 Gunfight mode, and some Slabs recreate locations such as Crash, Storage Town and Shoot House. After playing the beta, the author suggests learning the Central Slab first and using construction signs and arrows as spatial markers.

    Don't Worry, You're Not the Only One Dying Too Much in Modern Warfare 4's Campaign

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 launches this week, with its campaign and DMZ currently in early access and 16 missions in total. The author says the campaign's normal difficulty feels tougher than recent entries, as NPCs seem buffed and shoot straighter, forcing repeated attempts at one boss fight. Other players have reportedly shared the same complaint, though the setting remains manageable with a slower, more patient approach.

    Warning to Dog Lovers: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's Extraction Mode Has a Rough Intro

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's new DMZ extraction mode launched a few days early for players who digitally pre-ordered the game, and its intro mission is rough for dog lovers. The scripted opening sees the player's dog companion Rex get shot after killing two North Korean soldiers, before the player character is captured and shot in the head, leaving Rex to bleed out. Players have yet to unlock their own dog, and some suggest exiting the intro once you gain control of the soldier to skip it without losing any loot.

    Modern Warfare 4 DMZ Players Lose Loot to Server Crashes Despite Infinity Ward's Fix

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's DMZ extraction mode is suffering server crashes during early access that cause players to lose loot picked up mid-match. Infinity Ward said it deployed a potential fix and confirmed affected players keep their starting equipment and progression but not loot collected during the match. Some players are still reporting problems ahead of the game's full release on October 23.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Campaign Wins Praise, but Price's Character Divides Fans

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's early campaign preview has made it the best-reviewed Call of Duty in over a decade. The campaign follows Korean soldier Park Hyun-jun through a full-scale Korean War across 16 missions, while Price pursues the villain across the globe. Its return to large-scale linear warfare won praise, but Price's portrayal as a ruthless, revenge-driven killer left veteran players disappointed.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 DMZ Players Spawn in the Middle of a Road and Get Flattened Before They Can Act

    During early access to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's DMZ extraction mode, players found that one spawn point sits in the middle of a road, where an enemy patrol can run them over right after the infil cutscene. Reddit users grillimperator and Deep-Operation-3552 hit the issue, and there appears to be no spawn protection, so dying also means losing everything brought into the match. Infinity Ward fixed it in a new DMZ patch, whose notes state that some instances of enemy AI running over players while infilling were addressed.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 campaign hands-on: how its level pacing and open-world mission return to big set-piece action

    A Kotaku writer played the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 campaign early via a code from Activision and calls it the best CoD campaign in years. The story follows Price on the run after killing a U.S. general who betrayed him, while North Korea invades South Korea with help from a more powerful country, seen partly through a South Korean marine squad. The roughly eight-hour campaign moves through a nightclub gunfight, a train yard, a trench-and-tank assault, a night-vision stealth section and a Far Cry-like open-world mission, which the author says is more grounded than recent entries.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 DMZ Guide Covers Orders, FOB Upgrades, and Free Loadouts

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's DMZ is now in early access, and GameSpot has published tips on leveling, survival, and stash management. The guide recommends completing DMZ Orders on the Tac Map for XP and gear unlocks, and spending cash on FOB upgrades such as stash and bank storage once the 3D Printer unlocks at level 2. Matches support up to 60 players in trios, with irradiated gas spreading after 30 minutes and a final 10-minute window to exfil.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's campaign is playable early and currently holds a Very Positive rating on Steam, with many players calling it one of the best campaigns in years.

The PS Store user rating will only appear when the full game launches.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 DMZ Operator Starter Guide

    Xbox Wire published a starter guide for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's DMZ mode covering operator recruitment, Dog Tags, MIA recovery, and the three Trait Trees. Players begin with two Active Duty operator slots and unlock another through DMZ Player Levels, while eliminated operators become MIA and must be recovered with DMZ Cash at a cost that rises with invested Trait Points. Each successful exfil earns one Trait Point for the Warfighter, Scout, and Survivalist trees, with 66 Traits in total and a cap of 18 per operator before Prestige grants a permanent Trait.

    IGN Opinion: Modern Warfare 4 Rescues the Reboot Series by Replicating Modern Warfare 2

    IGN's Matt Purslow argues that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 has one of the series' best campaigns in years because it largely replicates the structure of 2009's Modern Warfare 2. The story swaps an invasion of America for North Korea's assault on South Korea and centers on conscripted South Korean soldier Park Hyun-Jun, with a mission called Following Orders echoing No Russian's interactive choices. The author says it understands that mission's player agency far better than Modern Warfare 3's Passenger.

    Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare 4 ranks among the top five campaigns in the Call of Duty series. The original Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2 remain the best in the series, and the 2019 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare reboot got off to a strong start. Despite a slightly underwhelming runtime, Modern Warfare 4 stands alongside the very best of them.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 does not launch until October 23, but the single-player campaign went live today for digital pre-orders and early reviews have started to appear. No scored reviews exist yet because outlets are waiting for more time with multiplayer, including DMZ, and the in-progress impressions are better than the reception Black Ops 7 got at launch. PC Gamer and IGN both praised individual missions while finding the story rushed, especially the parts featuring Mads Mikkelsen.

    The campaign for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is now in early access for digital pre-orders, and the first reviews have arrived with mostly positive impressions. IGN scored it 8/10, calling the missions consistently strong and the DMZ-inspired behind-enemy-lines mission a highlight, while GameSpot gave 7/10 and ranked it the best campaign since Modern Warfare 2019. GamesBeat did not score the full game but rated the campaign 4.5/5, noting the open-world sections slowed the pace.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Campaign Review

    IGN's Simon Cardy reviews Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's campaign, calling it the best Modern Warfare since the 2019 reboot, with 16 missions taking about seven hours. The story splits between Price and a Korean conflict, and the DMZ-inspired Stranded mission stands out for its freedom of approach, while forced stealth and melee sections occasionally drag. The review is based on PC, with a few missions also tried on Switch 2, where visuals are weaker but performance is smooth.

    Modern Warfare 4 on Switch 2 Hands-On: Campaign Runs 4K 30fps, Multiplayer Targets 60fps

    IGN's Simon Cardy played several campaign missions of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 on Switch 2, the first mainline COD on a Nintendo console since Call of Duty: Ghosts hit the Wii U in 2013. The version, handled by Activision studio Digital Legends, runs at 4K 30fps docked, with the campaign locked at 30fps and multiplayer targeting 60fps, and the author found the campaign framerate consistent without stutters during explosive sequences. Visuals are a clear downgrade from PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X, with simplified textures and faces, though the author says it still feels as responsive as the series usually is.

    How Long Is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's Campaign? About 8 Hours Across 16 Missions

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's campaign is live in early access, with the full game arriving on October 23. On normal difficulty the campaign takes around eight hours to complete, longer than the 5-6 hours recent Call of Duty campaigns averaged, and it spans 16 missions. Each mission unlocks a reward such as an operator, calling card, emblem, loading screen, or double XP token, and the mission Stranded is an open-world one with optional exploration. The game is available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Switch 2.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Review: Campaign Returns to Linear Storytelling, Solid DMZ and Multiplayer

    GameSpot's review says Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 brings the campaign back to a traditional linear structure, with steadier storytelling and mission design than recent entries. It notes only one open-world mission, a plot spanning New York, Paris, Mumbai, and Korea, and a new cast. The review also calls the DMZ and multiplayer modes strong.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 review-in-progress: A campaign you shouldn't skip

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's roughly 6-hour campaign spends over half its length with a South Korean marine squad after North Korea suddenly invades. The author calls it the most fun Call of Duty campaign in years, with the Stranded mission offering non-linear objectives, side quests, and a hideout for crafting armor, guns, and camouflage. The Captain Price thread feels disconnected because it never intersects with the squad's story.
