Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Opens to 86 on PC, 89 on PS5
The scores land high, and the review consensus puts the balance between campaign, multiplayer, and the new DMZ mode at the center of the case, which is what Infinity Ward's finish to the Modern Warfare arc will be measured on.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 launched October 23, 2026 on PC (Steam, Microsoft Store, Battle.net), PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. At the time of writing, its Metascore is 86 from 25 PC reviews and 89 from 13 PS5 reviews; the Xbox Series X and Switch 2 versions lack the required review count to be scored. Critics point to the campaign, multiplayer, and DMZ mode as evenly matched.
Metacritic scores a game only once enough reviews are in. The Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch 2 versions of Modern Warfare 4 currently have too few to be scored at all, so the 86 and 89 are a partial picture of a four-platform release.
The reviews that do exist split their praise: the campaign's finale draws credit, the multiplayer holds up, and the extraction loop in DMZ mode gets named in nearly every write-up. Several critics also treat the release schedule itself as an argument, saying the finished state of three modes together shows what a longer development cycle buys.
