Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's campaign is now out in the wild, with digital owners across all systems granted early access ahead of next week's launch. While a lot of attention will undoubtedly be on multiplayer come October 28th, campaign is getting its time to shine, and it's safe to say fans are very impressed so far.
Across both Xbox Series X and Series S, players are lauding just how good the game looks and plays in its current state. Here's a clip of one of the game's early missions on Xbox Series X, currently top of the console's Reddit homepage:
Over on Xbox Series S, YouTuber The Xbox Tester has been, well, testing MW2 out on Microsoft's all-digital console. They've uploaded a good two hours of footage from the game running on Series S, and it's safe to say it's looking impressive there as well.
If you don't want to spoil too much of the game's campaign for yourself, some impressive Xbox screenshots are also doing the rounds over on Twitter. Remember, this is running in the game's 120FPS mode, and it still looks this good on Xbox Series X!
Modern Warfare 2 launches next Friday, October 28th in its full form, however, you can play the game's campaign right now with a digital pre-order. Here's all the info on MW2's release dates, release times and pre-load details on Xbox:

To some other companies who recently launched titles running at 30fps on the Series X or S... see what some proper optimization can do!
@Texel There are differences between a corridor shooter and an open world game as far as resource usage. But agreed that every game should be at least hitting a baseline of 60fps.
COD campaigns are a guilty pleasure for me. I don't play the multiplayer but I do like to jump into the story mode once the game gets to $20. The first modern Warfare reboot had one of the best FPS campaigns ever imo.
@Somebody Same here! I do not care for the MP but the solo content is usually so much fun.
@Somebody
I still play the modernwarfare remake, best FPS ever.
This game even tops that and i am talking about the Beta lol.
The sound lf the explosion, man and with a good headset or surround sound. Holy moly its next level.
I thought it was fun in 2009.
Even if the series is basically US military propaganda. Lol
I can say this because I'm a veteran of the US AF and served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Loving it so far, it seems like a greatest hits of campaign missions. Looks a treat too.
Removed - unconstructive
And got ressurected in 2022 👍😎
Wait for them to release an update that breaks the campaign lol
@Somebody I'm with you. All the cheating and online antics are just not worth my time. I love campaign mode so might try it when the price goes down.
I’ll play it someday, most likely, unless Sony has its way. I just will continue my solo boycott of all things Activision/Blizzard until the day Kotick is gone, something I hope happens soon after Microsoft’s acquisition.
Is this a new game or a remaster? Used to love cod but haven't played any for years. The name is confusing to me.
Loving it. Campaign looks and plays brilliantly.
@Somebody
Indeed for me the first remake was like playing a live action movie. The story really takes you in. And i love the fact that the enemies are smart. Had a hard time with that one lol.
@Baler
Brand new game build by the OG developers. This is what i wanted from call of duty, already the best game (fps) ever.
The sounds lf explosions are sooo satisfying. (I only played the beta) havent played the campagne yet, but what i read already its already an amazing experience.
And... it's cross gen. It looks amazing on Series X and I can play a reduced version on XB1. Impressive.
@Benjamin
Are there comparison videos? For xbox one and series X.
@The-Chosen-one it does look stunning. I might get it
