Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II review - a greatest-hits world tour

(Picture: Call of Duty)

If 2019’s Modern Warfare was Call of Duty’s comeback album, the sequel is the equivalent of a greatest hits world tour.

The Task Force 141 band of classic CoD is back together, with Johnny ‘Soap’ MacTavish and Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley joining Captain Price and Gaz, and they’re on an extended run of gigs that will take you from the Middle East to Amsterdam and the borderlands of Mexico. They’re playing all the favourites – smashing through doorways, blasting the bad guys, and sneaking and sniping in camouflage suits. Levels deliberately echo the highway chase and air-support scenes of the series’s golden years.
