Call of Duty frames World War II through the experiences of American, British and Russian soldiers, emphasizing the contributions of ordinary troops rather than a single hero or nation. Its missions connect four historical campaigns, giving the game a broad wartime perspective while keeping the action grounded in the work of a squad.
Combat combines direct assaults with objectives such as sabotage, stealth and rescue, alongside vehicle combat. Squad members provide covering fire and help wounded allies, while their differing personalities and training shape how they appear in battle. Authentic weapons, locations, vehicles and sound contribute to the game’s effort to evoke the period and its battlefield atmosphere.
That sits alongside a defined campaign structure: 24 missions across interconnected campaigns, with objectives that vary beyond straightforward combat. The result is a mix of historical storytelling and varied mission tasks, rather than a premise focused on one nation’s experience alone.
