The Call of Duty series was quite the hit across multiple consoles and platforms, and as most gaming studios would have it, to miss out on subsequent sequels would tantamount to being sacrilegous – after all, if there is money to be made, why not? Activision has geared up its sequel known as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, where its release has already set records in a number of North American midnight openings, placing gamers on the front lines of an epic, global battle that has advanced onto American soil. Guess truth can be stranger than fiction at times, eh, considering American soil has been breached over time before.

Picking up following the historic events of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Modern Warfare 2 completely immerses players in one of the most intense storylines, filled with unexpected plot twists and death-defying battles set in exotic locales across the globe. Delivering the complete package, in addition to the heart-racing intensity of the single player campaign, Modern Warfare 2 also offers an entirely new gameplay mode, “Special Ops,” which supports 2-player co-operative play via online or split screen dropping gamers into a surplus of time-trial and objective-based missions. As players rank-up, ever challenging missions are unlocked, including highlights from the single player campaign, fan favorites from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and all new, exclusive missions. While, the all-new Multiplayer mode raises the bar even higher from the world-record setting online play from its predecessor delivering new capabilities, customization, gamestates and modes, including customizable killstreaks, accolades and new create-a-class features.

Rated “M” (Mature) by the ESRB for Blood, Drug Reference, Intense Violence and Language, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is ready to see action on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC platforms, where all of them will share the same price tag of $59.99.
