It may seem strange for Activision to give players access to the game’s campaign before its official launch date, but some fans believe the idea behind the move is to give players as much time withCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’smultiplayeras possible. No matter what the reasoning is behind the campaign early access, gamers have been able to take a look at the continuation of the story of 2019’sModern Warfare, seeing which classic elements from the originalModern Warfare 2make it in and which are swapped out.

According to PCGamesN, theCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2missions are somewhat of a mixed bag when it comes to length. Some allow for easy completion in a few minutes and are more linear, traditional levels, while other missions give players a near-sandbox stealth experience. However, even with the variety of missions available in theCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2campaign, it will take gamers on average around 6-8 hours per playthrough.
For those wanting to just rush through and see the main story beats, they’ll be looking at a runtime closer to the six-hour mark. However, players who take things a bit slower will have their play time will reflect that. This story length is fairly close to the 2019Modern Warfareremake, showing that Activision is giving players areason to run through the campaign ofModern Warfare 2but isn’t making it too much of a slog.
Still, some players weren’t able to access the early version of theModern Warfare 2campaign due to being banned. As physical copies for the game have not yet been released, those who wanted early access to the campaign had to do so with an internet connection. Should someone be banned from the servers, then, they would also be prevented from accessingModern Warfare 2’scampaign. Some have explained that theModern Warfare 2campaign banis down to a glitch, but it is still concerning for those wanting to enjoy the single-player portion of theModern Warfare 2experience.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2launches on October 28 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
