Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Reviews
With a comprehensive selection of core multiplayer modes, a convincing take on extraction shooters, and the strongest – albeit rushed at times – campaign of this rebooted sub-series, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is a slam dunk from Infinity Ward and the support studios that proves the franchise is at its best when developers are given extra time to cook.
Modern Warfare 4 is the Call of Duty the series needed after a few weaker years. The campaign finally features missions that really stick with you again. The nightclub and the chase for Makarov, in particular, show just how good Infinity Ward still is at tightly directed action. The multiplayer is back to the pace of MW2019 and many times better than the previous game, Black Ops 7. Of course, not every aspect of Modern Warfare 4 is perfect, and as far as I'm concerned, the open-world mission could have been scrapped without any problems. But as a total package, this is the strongest Call of Duty in years and a convincing final installment for Task Force 141.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 delivers a satisfying campaign ending, a great evolution of DMZ, and fun multiplayer. There are missed opportunities, but it's the best Modern Warfare package in years.
One of the premiere first-person shooter series is back on a Nintendo system, and pretty well no matter what flavor you prefer you should find a satisfying match
Modern Warfare 4 is one of the series' better recent campaigns, supported by satisfying gunplay and a variety of missions. It is content-rich and polished, but repetitive objectives and grinding hold it back.
All things come to an end, and Modern Warfare 4 brings a strong conclusion to one of gaming’s longest-running annual franchises. This is one of the series’ tightest and most enthralling campaigns since the 2019 reboot and delivers a high-octane ride, with a noticeable DMZ training mission in the middle that might irk some players. All in all, Modern Warfare 4 brings a strong ending in a new and refreshing setting that will undoubtedly resonate strongly with players.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is a good package when taken as a whole. If you have been waiting for a return to form for CoD campaigns, I believe the single-player here is definitely the best of the rebooted Modern Warfare games. Multiplayer is about as standard as it gets, which may be good for the regular players, but it hasn’t been impressive or surprising for a very long time. In total, Modern Warfare 4 is pretty on par with, or slightly above, Call of Duty releases in the last decade, which isn't a bad thing. It's just not necessarily something worthy of great discussion.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 does what a Call of Duty game should do: it reminds everyone why we keep coming back year after year—despite the frustrations, the cheaters, and the questionable matchmaking.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 had a lot to fix after the last COD release one year ago. Infinity Ward had to deliver and did so in a back-to-basics way. The game is stunning, action-packed, yet grounded in what Modern Warfare stands for. Its story is personal, and the gameplay is tight and refreshing, with lots of believable places that breathe life and will keep you on the edge of your seat. There’s tons of replay value, with some amazing levels that can extend the campaign by a few extra hours. If that’s not enough, DMZ feels like a free, separate game that is likely to see many updates in the future if you’re into fleshed-out extraction shooters. And then there’s the stellar multiplayer that delivers with Kill Block, a mode that could become its own esports platform, where skill stands above the usual “pay-to-win” loadouts from some other modes. While some later levels, especially the snow levels, lack the visual fidelity of the earlier Paris missions, Infinity Ward shows that it can make a beautiful game that is still action-packed and delivers grounded and solid gameplay. If only they could fix that pesky download mess and optimize the install size on consoles to something more reasonable. But once you’re in, NO MORE RULES!
A brilliant campaign and a surprising DMZ mode rescue a package weighed down by a traditional multiplayer rendered frustrating by SBMM, yet built upon solid mechanics. Without a doubt, the best Call of Duty in recent years.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is, for me, one of the most complete experiences the series has delivered in recent years.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 marks a convincing comeback for Infinity Ward, thanks above all to a spectacular campaign and a solid multiplayer mode, enhanced by the excellent Kill Block. DMZ is an interesting addition, but it’s still too similar to Warzone to fully realize its potential. While it doesn’t revolutionize the formula, MW4 is a well-rounded, entertaining installment that restores confidence in the series’ future.

The Modern Warfare 4 campaign is what Modern Warfare III should have been three years ago. It has all the ear-ringing spectacle you want from a blockbuster shooter, and it isn’t afraid to show what that spectacle costs the people pulling the triggers.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 marks a true return to form. The campaign is spectacular, brilliantly written and executed, and the story of the Marines squad, along with the heavy themes it tackles, makes it one of the best campaigns in the series’ history. DMZ has finally become a full-fledged mode that can keep players engaged for a long time, and while the multiplayer is polished and incredibly fun to play, it offers too few new features compared to its predecessors. If you’ve skipped the latest entries in the series, Modern Warfare 4 is the perfect time to jump back in.

As a package, Modern Warfare 4 is unarguably the best Call of Duty has been in some time.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 marks a triumphant comeback, delivering one of the best campaigns in years, meaningful improvements to DMZ, and exactly the return to the classic multiplayer feel that fans have been waiting for. While the mix of two parallel storylines doesn’t always quite come together, and the new multiplayer maps occasionally lack variety, the game otherwise delivers the kind of entry the series has been missing. For fans of the franchise, this is finally a Call of Duty title they can buy without a second thought.

Very good opus than this Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4. Spectacular, giving choice in his multiplayer without necessarily renewing himself too much. The DMZ mode will convince some players, the others will return to the classic modes that also bring their novelties. You should not be disappointed.
