Editions and Pricing

The game will be offered in two editions. The Standard Edition, priced at $69.99, includes early access to the Open Multiplayer Beta and the single-player campaign. The Vault Edition, costing $99.99, provides additional content:

  • Hunter Killer Operator Skin
  • Hostile Alliance Operator Pack

  • Signature Weapon Collection
  • Season 1 BlackCell Battle Pass

Gameplay and Campaign Details

The single-player campaign transports players to the Korean Peninsula, focusing on a fictional modern-day escalation. It offers two perspectives: Private Park, a rookie South Korean soldier, and Captain Price, referred to as Dark Price. Familiar characters such as Makarov and Ghost also return. Infinity Ward has implemented major changes to gunplay and movement. Randomized weapon bloom has been removed, ensuring bullets follow a predictable path aligned with recoil. Movement now features a weightier tactical parkour style, reintroducing slide-canceling alongside new mechanics.

A innovative map addition called Kill Block debuts as an experimental arena that reshapes itself between rounds, altering walls, cover pieces, and structural routes. It can generate over 500 different layouts at launch, ensuring no two matches play identically.
