Earlier this month Infinity Ward released the first details regarding its upcoming sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
Today the publisher posted a new preview clip of Modern Warfare 2 (MW2) gameplay, with the extended version of the video due out this Sunday May 24.
Modern Warfare 2 will pick up where its predecessor left off. The original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare campaign ended with players finally killing Zakhaev, and Modern Warfare 2 will continue with a new terrorist threat stepping in to replace him.
There are a number of confirmed gameplay changes that Infinity Ward will be making. Infinity Ward President Jason West acknowledged in an interview with Game Informer earlier this month that the constant enemy spawn wave mechanic that has become synonymous with the Call of Duty brand is being re-worked.
The campaign length however will not be extended, much to the dismay of many gamers who thought CoD4’s campaign was a bit short.
MW2 will also apparently feature more open ended gameplay, with players being able to choose their own path when completing objectives.
The new Special Forces mode will allow players to participate in once off operations. It will also be possible for players to complete these missions co-operatively.
There have been very little details posted about MW2’s multiplayer, apart from the inclusion of the Special Forces missions.
MW2 is scheduled for release on November 10 2009, and will be available on PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.
