Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 has been released and it’s been more than a month now it is also the fastest-selling title in the COD franchise. 

Undoubtedly the franchise’s rich legacy had made a great contribution to its success, but the new title holds its own interesting game modes as well as features. Season 1 in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 featured the third-person Battle Royale mode, the new AI-Mazrah map in Warzone 2, and the extraction-based DMZ mode. 

The COD title has always been linked with multiplayer game modes, but there is a question that players who are not familiar with the franchise ask frequently whenever they come online whether the new game has a campaign mode or a certain storyline. 

Modern Warfare 2 consists of its own independent campaign mode with an actual storyline that brings back Task Force 141 and pits them against AI-Qatala. It takes the players on a journey, letting them experience unique gameplay scenarios such as shooting at the time hanging upside down in a helicopter, or surviving stealthily at night in a town while on the run. 

Modern Warfare 2 includes an extensive campaign mode where players need to finish 17 long missions that tie in perfectly with the storyline of Task Force-141 defeating Hassan’s AI-Qatala. Throughout the campaign, gamers can play as various characters from the team like Gaz, Soap, Rodolfo, Price, and Graves. 

The campaign needs 6-8 hours of gameplay when players travel to different locations like Mexico, Amsterdam, London, AI-Mazrah, and more. With its revamped game mechanics, several interactive elements, and semi-realistic cinematics making the game appear to be like a Hollywood movie, this mode gives a new and enjoyable experience to its longtime fans. 

Here are the 17 playable missions in the Modern Warfare 2 campaign: 

• Strike 

• Kill or Capture 

• Wetwork 

• Tradecraft 

• Borderline 

• Cartel Protection 

• Close Air 

• Hardpoint 

• Recon by Fire 

• Violence and Timing 

• El Sin Nombre 

• Dark Water 

• Alone 

• Prison Break 

• Hindsight 

• Ghost Team  

• Countdown 

You need to finish them one after the other. Few of them will be fulfilled on the basis of the selections you make while conversing with the characters. While the storyline is not as unique and thorough as the one you might expect, the visuals as well as the mechanics make up for the loopholes. 

The story features callbacks to the classic MW2 game and other COD games through several missions, with the other characters calling Ghost a “freak.” The mission Recon By Fire is an ode to the classic sniping mission All Ghillied Up. The latter required gamers in order to play as Gaz in a ghillie suit and conceal in a bush to take out foes with the help of a long-range sniper. 

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 costs $69.99 for the Standard Edition, on the other, and $99.99 for the Vault Edition. The latter will provide players with various cosmetics, XP Boosts, and the Season 1 Battle Pass. They can be played on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox.
