Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis a monumental success. The decision to reboot the series seems like a wise one, asModern Warfarehas outsold most games in 2020, despite being launched last year where it also broke records. The trifecta of a fun multiplayer experience, a great campaign, and the eventually releasedWarzonebattle royale is a solid formula.
Part of what makesModern Warfaregreat is the campaign, but the multiplayer is where the replayability lies. And a voice-actor from the campaign agrees, as he continues to play the game today.
