Common questions on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, surfaced from across the indexed web.

What is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4?

Modern Warfare 4 is the next main installment in the Call of Duty series and is also a direct sequel to 2023’s Modern Warfare 3. Like past games, MW4 is a first-person shooter that features single-player content, multiplayer modes, and more. It is set to continue the story from MW3 and will feature new weapons and maps. It is not a remake or reimagining of a past game in the franchise, but an entirely new installment featuring returning characters as well as some new faces.

Is there a Zombies or aliens mode in Modern Warfare 4?

No. Instead, MW4‘s third mode is an expanded and enhanced version of DMZ, the extraction shooter mode that once lived in Call of Duty: Warzone. This time around, it is much bigger and more developed, and seems to be a bit less sweaty than Marathon, but more grounded than Arc Raiders. More details are coming about this mode at a later date, but so far, what we’ve seen makes it look like it could end up being the best part of the MW4 package.
