Modern Warfare 3 gameplay cinematic released

FIinally, Robert Bowling, Creative Strategist at Inifinity Ward, tweeted that tonight we would see a world-premiere of the gameplay coming in Modern Warfare 3. As per himaround 9pm ET/6pm PT we’d see the trailer on TV during the NBA Western Conference Finals. A full hour early, he posted the video to YouTube, and it doesn’t disappoint.


If you’ve been following the leaks and information releases around Modern Warfare 3, none of the gameplay will surprised you. What may surprise you though is how good everything looks. Everything in the cinematic is actual game footage, not pre-rendered or dressed-up cinematic sequences. The full trailer builds on the teasers already posted to the Call of Duty YouTube channel, but now we get to see how the battles in some of the world’s major cities will play out.

The video is a world tour of some of the places around the globe where players will get to experience the game, from street battles on the streets of Paris to swimming through flooded New York City subways. Near the end of the video, we’re treated to a little tidbit of story, and at first the initial “WW3,” which turns and becomes “MW3,” implying this global conflict may be bigger than we initially anticipated. Modern Warfare 3 lands on store shelves November 8th.
