Call of Duty: Modern Warfare too ‘authentic’ to have zombie mode
CALL OF DUTY: Modern Warfare will have a co-op mode - but it's not going to feature time travel, zombies or other 'out there' concepts.
That's according to the campaign director for 2019's Call of Duty game, who explained the co-op story would follow directly on from the game's main campaign.
Having zombies in the game would "compromise the feeling of playing in a world that feels realistic and authentic and relative to today’s conflicts," according to Infinity Ward's Jacob Minkoff.
He also revealed that the game's co-op mode and single-player story would be "completely continuous".
"The single-player storyline goes directly into the co-op storyline," he said.
The game promises players "an incredibly raw, gritty, provocative narrative," and will feature action in a number of "iconic European cities."
"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare pushes boundaries and breaks rules the way only Modern Warfare can," according to Activision.
The two-minute trailer released when the game was officially revealed shows off many other locations too.
It starts with a special operations soldier moving through woodland at night before a squad of soldiers assault a small house.
After a voice-over reveals that "chemical weapons are in the wild" scenes of destruction play out in what are described as the "volatile expanses of the Middle East".
In one, a cheering soldier in make-shift gear waves an AK-47 in the air and cheers.
Shortly afterwards a small child wearing a gas mask can be seen crouching down near some green grass, before looking back as he hears the sound of an approaching jet.
As the child fades from view there is a voiceover from the original spec-ops soldier, saying "we get dirty - but the world stays clean. That's the mission."
The London section of the game is in a mission that follows a terrorist attack in London, according to early reports on the content of the game.
Your SAS squad then has to raid a house on London's outskirts, taking out terrorists before they can blow it up.
Other sections of the game will see you play as a female Middle Eastern 'rebel' called Farah, who was radicalised after her father was killed by the Russian military.
The trailer reveals that the game is, as had been expected, coming out on October 25, and more information on it is expected imminently.
