Call of Duty is a first-person shooter franchise developed by Activision, spanning multiple studios and set across various military conflicts from World War II to near-future and modern warfare settings. The series is known for its cinematic single-player campaigns, fast-paced multiplayer modes, and cooperative experiences.
The franchise's multiplayer is the backbone of its popularity, offering a wide range of game modes including Team Deathmatch, Search and Destroy, Domination, and the battle royale spin-off Warzone. Players earn experience points, unlock weapons, and customize loadouts through an extensive progression system.
Recent entries such as Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, and Black Ops 6 continue to evolve the formula with new movement mechanics, updated gunsmith systems, and cross-platform play. The series also features Zombies co-op modes across many titles, where players fight off waves of undead in increasingly challenging rounds.
