The teams at Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer Games have tirelessly worked to create an unimaginable spectacle with a finesse and creativity that elevate the genre to a new level.

The story of Modern Warfare 3 picks up directly from the events of its predecessor. With the invasion of Manhattan by the Russian army, the third world war officially begins, and Makarov's plan seems to be coming to fruition.

The single-player campaign consists of 15 missions and takes the player to India, New York, London, Hamburg, Berlin, Paris, Prague, the Kremlin in Moscow, Washington, Dubai, and Dharamsala in India.
