Final Review Score

7.8 / 10

Great

The second installment of the rebooted Modern Warfare continuity reunites Task Force 141 for an international counterterrorism operation.

Gameplay and Presentation

The campaign alternates between close-quarters encounters, stealth sequences, and larger firefights. Detailed weapon handling and audiovisual presentation make individual engagements feel weighty, while multiplayer expands customization and tactical options.

The Final Verdict

Uneven mission gimmicks and divisive progression decisions prevent the experience from fully matching its strongest moments, though the underlying gunplay remains compelling.
