Campaign
Private Park leads the story perspective, while Captain Price now appears in an outlaw role tied to the wider Modern Warfare arc.
Campaign & Cast
Official campaign locations and the cast leading them
The July 15 source check adds official MW4 site details: Private Park's war spans Korea, New York, Paris and Mumbai, while Captain Price is now confirmed as operating outside the system he once served. Digital pre-orders get campaign early access on October 16.
The story
The campaign centers on a full-scale invasion of South Korea. You play Private Park, a young, green grunt thrown into the crucible of combat when the front lines collapse around his hometown. Rather than an elite operator from the start, Park is a conscript - one of several squad members (Jay, Cho and Moon) pulled into a war that lands on their doorstep.
The official MW4 site now gives a wider route for that war: Korea, New York, Paris, Mumbai and occupied territory under assault. A returning Captain Price anchors the story to the wider Modern Warfare universe as an operator-turned-outlaw working outside the system he once served.

City-wide assaults to reclaim occupied territory
These are official campaign-setting examples, not a full mission list. Mission order, playable chapters and any late-game locations should still wait for Activision's campaign materials or the October 16 early-access build.
