Last week Activision and developer Sledgehammer Games officially unveiled Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III via a quick trailer that teased a lot of things – the return of Vladimir Marakov, the infamous “No Russian” mission, and more. What we didn’t get was a lot of uncut gameplay. Thankfully, Activision just served up a meaty chunk of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III during today’s Geoff-Keighly-produced Gamescom Opening Night Live show.
The new footage runs nearly 9 minutes and shows off a large chunk of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III’s opening mission. We see our protagonists emerge from the ocean and deploy grappling hooks in order to infiltrate the fortress-like Zordaya Prison complex. The footage is dark and moody, showing off some solid lighting work and plenty of night-vision action. Of course, as is usually the case with cinematic CoD missions, everything’s pretty much on rails, but the action looks pretty absorbing. It all culminates in our crew coming to a specific cell, which I’m guessing contains Marakov, although the footage doesn’t confirm that. You can check out the new Modern Warfare III footage for yourself, below.
