One mission sees you playing as Colonel Dimitri Belikov, a CIA agent who has infiltrated the KGB. Some missions involve all-out warfare, whilst others see you sneaking around East Berlin as you try and uncover secrets to where Perseus is hiding, and who he actually is. That’s not to say it doesn’t take some interesting twists, especially as you uncover more about who you are and what role you play in the bigger picture. You must work towards stopping a nuclear holocaust, you know, your usual end-of-the-world type scenario. In terms of its story, there’s little that feels new. You’ll give them a name, choose their gender to be either male, female, or non-binary, and add a couple of perks like doing more damage or reloading quicker.Īs a direct sequel to 2010’s Call of Duty: Black Ops, you’ll work alongside familiar faces like Alex Mason and Frank Woods, but the new characters, specifically Russell Adler, are the main people at play. You play as a guy known only as Bell, but you can customise them to be somewhat individual. Tasked with stopping a mysterious Russian known only as Perseus, you must track him down before he sets off multiple nukes and causes untold destruction. The campaign isn’t going to go down as one of the best, but Treyarch has tried to make it more than an add-on to the main draw of Call of Duty: the multiplayer. It’s an excellent shooter that is filled with a decent campaign, tons of multiplayer modes, and a fantastic Zombies package, and I’ll definitely be playing more as time goes by and new content is added. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War might just be the one to drag me back in. It was a near perfect shooter, but with every new release, my time dwindled from one to the next. I was a new dad, so there were plenty of late nights and time away from work. Whilst I haven’t spend hundreds of hours in the more recent outings, I lived and breathed Modern Warfare 2.
Call of Duty will forever be a series I hold close to my heart.
