About this game

FPS · Action · Multiplayer

Modern Warfare 4 puts its war on the Korean Peninsula. North Korea launches a full-scale invasion, and Private Park, a young South Korean soldier, fights to survive on a collapsing front. Half a world away, Captain Price wages his own war from the shadows. The two threads collide, and the conflict spreads past anyone's control. Activision lists Korean trenches, close-quarters fighting in New York, chases through Paris, SAS night raids in Mumbai and city-wide assaults to retake occupied ground.

  1. 01

    A two-thread campaign

    The front line follows Private Park; the shadow war follows Captain Price. Activision says the two threads meet.

  2. 02

    Large-scale multiplayer maps

    Multiplayer mixes vehicles and infantry on large maps, alongside tight close-quarters fights.

  3. 03

    DMZ extraction

    Activision frames DMZ as an extraction sandbox: what you loot, negotiate and carry out is up to you.

  4. 04

    Cross-platform play

    The Steam page lists Cross-Platform Multiplayer, so PC, console and Switch 2 players share matches.

  5. 05

    The Vault Edition

    Activision lists four operator skins in the Hostile Alliance pack, four national skins with local voice packs, five Signature Weapons, one BlackCell season and extra DMZ content.

  6. 06

    Traditional Chinese is subtitles only

    Steam lists Traditional Chinese for interface and subtitles without full audio, so the voice track stays in another language.
