The series we all know and love is back and better than ever with the 3rd installment of the Modern Warfare series. The trailer for the upcoming game has recently been released to the public and can be found here. It has been confirmed that the game will be released November 8, 2011, as any Call of Duty enthusiast could have predicted. After viewing the trailer, it is obvious that the game will have a variety of settings including: America, Germany, France, and more. Also, the game is continuing the tradition of alternating between developers Infinity Ward and Treyarch. While the trailer does not show off any actual game play footage, it does display breathtaking scenery and beautiful graphics. Also included in the trailer is the altered “MW3″ forming “WW3″ which allows us to infer the basis of Modern Warfare 3. The game will likely be Infinity Ward’s take on a WW3 in every aspect, from locations to weapons.

Modern Warfare 3 is one of the most anticipated games of the year, and is so for good reason. The Call of Duty series has been topping charts over the past years, which definitely puts the pressure on Activision. In addition to this pressure, is the competition of other popular first person shooter titles such as, Gears of War 3 and Battlefield 3. Unfortunately, limited information about MW3 is available to the public, but we do know that we can expect an entertaining new video game in November. Assuming Infinity Ward continues on their usual path, MW3 may have a few glitches at first but will overall be an extremely fun online game, with amazing game play and maps. That’s all for now, but expect an in-depth video review of the game upon release in the next few months.

Be sure to check back soon with more MW3 information after the annual E3 gaming event next month, and let us know what you want to know in the comments below!
