Advanced Warfare, like the other
Call of Duty titles, is presented in a first-person shooter perspective. However, the game features several changes; unlike other installments, Advanced Warfare does not use a traditional heads-up display; instead, all information is relayed to the player via holographic projections from the weapon equipped.
The general gun-play remains unchanged, apart from new mechanics, for example, certain guns will be able to recharge slowly. The player can also switch between different types of grenades. The game will also be the first in the
Call of Duty series that will allow the player to choose differing types of conventional weaponry; for example, the game will feature regular conventional firearms, but the player can also choose to use Laser or
Energy directed weaponry, both of which have differing attributes. Customization will also return from the
2013 title
Call of Duty: Ghosts.
PLOT:
In 2054,
Private Jack Mitchell (
Troy Baker) of the
US Marines Corps participates in a battle against
North Koreans in
Seoul, along with his teammates, Private Will
Irons (
Paul Telfer) and
Sergeant Cormack (
Russell Richardson)
. In the midst of the battle, Will is killed in action while
Mitchell's left arm is severed from his shoulder, forcing him to be discharged from military service. After finishing a funeral service for Will, Mitchell is offered to join the
Atlas Corporation, the world's most powerful private military contractor, by
CEO Jonathan Irons (
Kevin Spacey), Will's father. As a reward, Mitchell is given an advanced prosthetic arm to replace his lost one.
Meanwhile, a terrorist group calling itself the
KVA, led by a technophobic man called "
Hades" (
Sharif Ibrahim), begins staging numerous terrorist attacks, with the world turning to
Atlas to stop them. Mitchell, his teammate
Gideon (
Gideon Emery) and other Atlas soldiers rescue the
Nigerian prime minister and later capture a KVA technologist in
Lagos during a technology summit. However, the KVA's attacks soon become more sophisticated, and Mitchell and his team fail to prevent the KVA forcing a nuclear reactor meltdown in
Seattle.
The KVA launch similar attacks against nuclear power plants worldwide, irradiating numerous cities, killing thousands of people, and putting national governments and militaries in turmoil. Atlas emerges as the dominant military force in the world, aiding civilians affected by the attacks, and holding back the KVA's rampage.
Four years later in 2059, Mitchell and Gideon search an abandoned
Detroit downtown to find Dr.
Pierre Danois, the KVA's second in command. After having the doctor interrogated by
Ilona (
Angela Gots), an ex-Spetsnaz Atlas operative, they are able to track Hades down to
Santorini in
Greece where KVA leaders are having a conference. Mitchell corners Hades and mortally wounds him. Before succumbing to his death, Hades utters "Irons knows", giving Mitchell a data chip with his last breath.
Ilona analyzes the data chip only to find out that the technologist they captured in
Nigeria was killed by Irons after the latter learned of the KVA global attack, proving that he deliberately allowed the attacks to occur to improve Atlas' reputation. Irons attempts to have Mitchell and Ilona arrested, but they escape Atlas' headquarters in the rebuilt
Baghdad, guided by a mysterious man, while Gideon stays by Irons' side for further investigation. The mysterious man happens to be Cormack, who reveals that he is part of the
Sentinel Task Force, an international effort to prevent Atlas' rise to power.
In 2060, Mitchell, now a Sentinel, joins Cormack, Ilona and
Knox (
Khary Payton) infiltrates Irons' private residence in
Bangkok. The team discovers that Dr. Danois (now having changed his name to
Bellamy) is now collaborating with Irons on "
Manticore", a bioweapon. They set up a tracker on the plane carrying the bioweapon bound for
Argentina. Sentinel later intercepts the plane, which crashes in
Antarctica. Gideon appears and helps the Sentinels defeat the Atlas soldiers after discovering Irons' intentions for the bioweapon. The team successfully retrieves the
WMD, and they are able to take one sample of it. After analyzing the sample, they discover that Manticore is a weapon designed to attack the
DNA of specific individuals, meaning Irons can use the weapon without risking harm to his own troops.
The Sentinels, now with Gideon, infiltrate and destroy an Atlas bioweapons laboratory in
Bulgaria, eliminating much of the Manticore samples.
