• Story

  Bringing the series back from Modern Warfare to its roots in World War II, Call of Duty World at War focuses on the battles on the Eastern front near the end of the war. You play as a Russian soldier as they invade Germany, and as part of the 1st Marine Division in the Battle of Peleliu and the American invasion of Okinawa in the Pacific Theater. The game promises to showcase the brutality of this war; for instance, there is a depiction of the treatment of American P.O.W.'s at the hands of the Japanese during a rescue near the beginning of the game.
