Infinity Ward is developing the next mainline Call of Duty entry, Modern Warfare 4, which takes the franchise to the Korean Peninsula for the first time. The campaign splits between a full-scale North Korean invasion of the South, told through a new mixed ROK-US Marine Corps squad, and Captain Price's globe-trotting hunt for the figure behind Makarov. Developers cited the global popularity of Korean culture as part of the rationale for the setting. The game is scheduled for October 23 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2.
