The wait for the next entry in the Call of Duty franchise is almost over. Before the game fully releases, you can play through the entire Modern Warfare 3 campaign. Early access kicks off on November 2, but the time the MW3 campaign goes live depends on what part of the world you’re in.
The MW3 campaign continues right where the MW2 story left off, with the conflict reaching an all-time high between Makarov and Task Force 141. As you play through the open combat missions, you’ll be joined alongside fan favourite operators, with a range of weaponry on-hand, and even take a trip back to Verdansk.
What time does early access begin for the MW3 campaign?
To get early access to the MW3 campaign, you need to place a digital pre-order of either the Standard or Vault edition of MW3. You can do this via the official Call of Duty website, or your PC/console storefront.
