It’s not exactly the same, as much of the game is set in Mexico, but the broad strokes of the plot, and many of the set pieces, are very familiar. Technically, this is a sequel to 2019’s reboot of the Modern Warfare series, but while that game was only a very loose interpretation of the 2007 original, for some reason the Modern Warfare 2 reboot is a lot closer to its 2009 inspiration (whose campaign was remastered only a couple of years ago). It does illustrate how good the graphics are – easily the best the series has ever seen – and showcases the new modern armoury, but in terms of storytelling and mission design it’s harder to be impressed. That’s not something Activision has done before and it’s not entirely obvious why they did. If you’re a committed Call Of Duty fan then you’ve probably already played the single-player campaign, since if you pre-ordered the game you were able to access it a week early. Plus, we haven’t played the co-op Special Ops mode at all (there is no Zombies mode), so that will have to wait until later. This isn’t a final review because the multiplayer servers only switched on the night of the launch and our experience with the PvP mode comes from the beta. Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 single-player review That seemed to make the wait until the next game longer than usual, but here it is: the series’ second Modern Warfare 2 and another Call Of Duty game that is exactly what you expect and not an smidgen more. Viewed on its own merits, Vanguard was not a bad game – no Call Of Duty ever has been – but half the problem was that its Second World War setting just didn’t resonate anymore, especially as Warzone was forced to replicate it.
