Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

2007 Infinity Ward First-person shooter Updated 25 Jul 2026

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is a 2007 first-person shooter developed by Infinity Ward, a landmark entry that boldly moved the series away from World War II into a gripping contemporary conflict. It follows US Marines and British SAS soldiers across a globe-spanning story of terrorism, civil war, and a rogue nationalist plot.

The game's tightly crafted campaign featured unforgettable missions, including a tense night-vision sequence and a shocking narrative turn, while its multiplayer revolutionized the genre with a persistent progression system of unlockable weapons, attachments, perks, and killstreak rewards like the UAV and helicopter. This addictive create-a-class loop reshaped online shooters and became the template that countless games would follow for years afterward.

Modern Warfare is regarded as one of the most important and influential shooters ever made, and it spawned a hugely successful sub-series. It was later remastered with updated visuals, keeping its acclaimed campaign accessible on modern platforms.
