Watch: Modern Warfare 4 puts Price on the run

The official Modern Warfare 4 campaign trailer, first published for Tokyo Game Show on September 17, puts John Price’s shadow operations at the centre of its story. Former allies question his methods while a wider conflict develops on the Korean Peninsula.

The useful catch-up

Activision’s accompanying feature introduces the divided remnants of Task Force 141, Price’s unexpected alliances and the threat driving the campaign. Watch the trailer as a story preview, then use the publisher’s recap if the earlier Modern Warfare games need refreshing.

Our pick: a narrative watch rather than another launch checklist. The video is official campaign footage; this article is not a review or a multiplayer performance verdict.
