New Modern Warfare 3 single player info

As a cavalcade of information on Modern Warfare 3 comes to light, new leaks have sprung regarding the game’s story and single player.

The game is set to open moments after the cliffhanger ending of Modern Warfare 2 with the U.S. struggling to stave off a surprise Russian attack. The single-player campaign will see players travelling around the world as they take on the guise of a variety of characters, both new and old. The game will feature about 15 missions, kicking off with the invasion of Manhattan by a Russian force and wrapping up with a final encounter in Dubai. Many of these missions will see you in vehicular combat scenarios. Expect lots of tanks and some classic AC130 action.

The single-player campaign appears to fill in most of the gaps left by the first two Modern Warfare titles. It also introduces new characters who appear to be destined for future Modern Warfare games, especially two Delta Force operatives codenamed “Frost” and “Sandman”.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is set for a November 8th release.
