On September 17, the official campaign trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 was unveiled during the Xbox TGS 2026 showcase.
This entry follows the internal conflict within Task Force 141 surrounding John Price, who has become a fugitive, a war breaking out on the Korean Peninsula, and an unknown weapon capable of shaking the global order.
Following the events in Modern Warfare 3 where Price killed General Shepherd, Task Force 141 is disbanded and Price goes on the run. Tensions rise among the remaining members, with Ghost questioning Price’s unlawful methods. Ghost and Gaz are given the mission to capture or eliminate their former captain.
The CIA’s Kate Laswell remains in contact with Price, but she too shows caution toward his methods. Valeria Garza appears before Price, and the two cast aside past grudges to form an alliance in order to face an even greater threat.
Details of the Korean Peninsula plunged into chaos also feature in the video. As North Korea launches a full-scale invasion of South Korea, Private Park Hyeon-jun and his squad launch a counteroffensive to defend their homeland. ROK-US joint Marines engage in a desperate fight for survival through ground combat and amphibious operations.
In parallel with the hunt for Price and the ongoing invasion of South Korea, an even greater threat moves in the background. An unknown weapon of war is delivered to a dangerous figure known as “The Archer.” What capabilities this weapon possesses and why Archer wants it have not yet been disclosed.
Meanwhile, Activision is providing a recap of the story so far on its official blog. Players can review the storylines of the previous three Modern Warfare games through posts on the official blog.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is scheduled for release on October 23. However, players who pre-order the Standard Edition or Vault Edition can play the campaign early starting October 16.
