Summary

• Call of Duty campaigns vary in length, with some like Vanguard offering only nine missions, a departure from the usual standard.
• Black Ops Declassified for PlayStation Vita, despite having only ten missions, fails to live up to the high expectations set by the main series games.
• Modern Warfare (2019) set a new standard for the series, introducing fresh characters and receiving critical acclaim for its engaging campaign.

The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Call of Duty series needs no introduction. A series born in 2003 🅘that eventually exploded into popularity from 2007 to 2012 has ever since remained a titan of gaming. Th🌄e revered first-person shooter series has seen multiple changes in developers, gameplay styles, and monetization options over the years.

A progressively-🏅overlooked part of what made the series tick to begin with was the single-player story options. The campaigns of Call of Duty games of years past included iconic characters, settings, and plot twists few saw coming. These are some of the shortest Call of Duty campaign offerings that simply did not live up to the expectations, at least in terms of how much content is present.

We've chosen these Call of Duty campaigns based on how many missions they have, with the lowest number of missions equaling the shortest campaign.

10 𒐪 Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare 💝

15 Missions

The outset of the eighth generation of consoles brought us Sledgehammer Games's rookie offering with Advanced Warfare. While Sledgehammer turned in a solid outing across th🎃e board with this, it started a number of trends that remain in place in gaming t🅺oday, including loot boxes.

Over 15 missions, you go around the globe from Seoul to Afghanistan as you start as a new recruit in Jonathan Irons's Atlas Corporation. You try to piece together who is responsible for the nuclear attacks during the game's fourth mission, and eventually come face-to-face with the story's true villain. You also have to learn how to utilize your exo suit abilities along the way.

9 𒅌 Call Of Duty: Black Ops

15 Missions

The numbers, Mason, what do they mean? The Black Ops sub-series got its real start here and has run 14 years.168澳洲幸运5开奖网: Some of the series' most iconic characters come from this game, from main protagonisꦕt Alex Mason to Frank Woods.

Spanning 15 missions over several important moments from the Bay of Pigs Invasion to the Vietnam War, Black Ops uses these real-world Cold War events to set up its unusual, yet highly entertaining narrative that culminates in you storming the Rusalka to end the story. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Nuketown, a multiplayer map that has remained strong♛ in Treyarch ♎titles since, also got its start here.

8 Call Of Duty: World At War ♈

15 Missions

This game, the last of the World War 2 era for Call of Duty (until 2017) gave rise to Viktor Reznov, while also telling the most grim tale of World War 2 yet. You start as Private Miller, who opens the game as a Prisoner of War until your squadmates, led by Kiefer Sutherland's Roebuck, arrive to rescue you, and eventually switch back-and-forth from the Marines to Reznov, who at this time was a Sergeant in the Red Army.

After the game's 15 missions, where you go from Makin Island all the way to Berlin and everywhere in between, you are greeted with an unusual introduction cinematic with an unknown enemy charging at you. Thus began Nacht der Untoten, and the Call of Duty: Zombies mode, which has gone strong for well over a decade and a half.

7 ﷺ Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War

15 Missions

Released under unusual circumstances, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War still managed to be a hit upon launc🔯h, if maybe a little light on overall content and with some occasional bugs and other issues. Nonetheless, the campaign of Cold War also wound up a bit light on overall content.

Four of the game's 15 missions are spent at your team's safehouse, where you choose your next mission, or get lost in having conversations with your teammates along the way. There's a flashback mission to the events of the Vietnam War (but no sight of Mason or Woods in the mission, who are with you in the 1980s missions), along with unique concepts for some of these missions. These concepts include a choose-your-own-adventure mission in the Soviet KGB where you must go about killing a general to acquire his keycard to help your contacts infiltrate the building.

6 ♒ Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)

14 Missions

Aftꦕer several years of stagnation, Call of Duty needed a fresh start. Modern Warfare was this fresh start. A runaway success on multiple counts, Modern Warfare (2019) set the standaꦕrd for which Call of Duty games now must follow, including the campaign.

While fan-favorite Captain Price made his return for this game (now voiced by Barry Sloane), his supporting cast comprises mostly new faces. Kyle Garrick, Farah, Hadir, and Alex join you on your mission to hunt down General Barkov and stop him from using stolen chemical weapons to unleash havoc on the fictional country of Urzikstan. Since this game's launch, this group of characters have appeared in every title of the new Modern Warfare series.

5 Call Of Duty: Mꦫ🌱odern Warfare 3

14 Missions

Modern Warfare 3 has endured a number of harsh criticisms. Most of these criticisms are warranted, especially when it comes to the shoc꧒kingly lackluster campaig🅷n that can be completed in as little as three hours.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Open Combat missions are a big part of the story of Modern Warfare 3, and of the 14 total missions, six of them are of this style. The other eight are much more in line with what you'd expect from a traditional Call of Duty title, but you may argue that even those missions aren't totally in-line with the typical formula. Before you even realize what happened over your playthrough, the story is over.

4 Call Oܫf Duty: Black Ops 2

11 Main Missions

The 2012 sequel to Black Ops left its mark on both the series and the industry in big ways, and gamers still flock back to this title to this very day. The iconic multiplayer dominated gaming in 2013, while the zombies mode featured Origins, a map that soon thereafter launched an entirely new spin on the classic four characters introduced in Shi No Numa in World at War. The campaign of Black✅ Ops 2 is just as iconic as the rest of the game Treyarch rele✨ased.

Taking place over 11 main missions (plus an additional set of Strike Force missions), and two time periods, the game has you take control of two generations of the Mason family — Alex in the 1980s, and his son David in 2025. You chase down Raul Menendez to find out his plans and stoﷺp them before he enacts his plan (spoiler alert: he sort of does). What made this campaign unique that others have yet to replicate is the choice system, offering a number of different ways your story could ♋end up.

3 ꦑ Call Of Duty: World War 2 ꧃

11 Missions

Call of Duty: World War 2 (or WW2 for short) was an important moment for the series, bringing it back to i꧑ts World War 2 roots (hence the name). Of course, to no surprise, the campaign also returns to the gritty feel of its World War 2 forefathers that began the series in earnest back in the m🔯id-to-late 2000s.

Starting off with a bang in the form of the D-Day Mission, the game has you take control of Red Daniels and his squadron as they descend upon the Nazi War Machine in the final year of World War 2. The pre-requisite tank mission is here, where you take control of one of Red's squadmates for the first half of the Collateral Damage mission. Also present is a plane mission and Liberation, a mission that is, for its first half, a wide-open sandbox as you navig🅠ate the German HQ to take ꩵdown a German General.

2 𓂃 Call Of Duty: Vanguard ♑

9 Missions

This is, of course, not a misprint. Call of Duty: Vanguard only had nine campaign missions. The game's story, an alternate re-telling of some of World War 2's biggest moments, splits up the nine missions among the core cast of characters you come to know in their introduction.

Said introduction starts in 1945, where you (as Novak), Arthur, Lucas, Wade, and Polina are sent to infiltrate a German base. After they are captured, you re-live their individual battles over the course of the wider war. The game's seven 'flashback' missions are split up evenly between three of the four characters, except for Arthur, who only has one.

1 𝓀 Call Of Duty: Black Ops Declassified

Ignore The Mission Count

A PlayStation Vita titleꦍ meant to cash in on the building hype for the then-new Black Ops 2, Black Ops Declassified did not live up to being regarded as any true sequel to the events of Black Ops. While the campaign is present here, something Black Ops 4 could not do, what Black Ops Declassified brings to the table is a lackluster campaign experience overall.

Taking place over ten missions, all of which can be completed in a matter of two hours, Black Ops Declassified attempts to piece together what happened to Alex Mason and Frank Woods in the intervening time period from Black Ops to Black Ops 2. Their exploits involve a return to Mt. Yamantau, a trip to Nicaragua, and eventually climates with the rise of Black Ops II's main villain: Raul Menendez.
