Call of Duty: Vanguardcoverage so far has mainly focused on the game’s multiplayer, which makes sense as theVanguardAlpha will be playable this weekend. But multiplayer is just one piece of theCall of Duty: Vanguardpuzzle.Vanguardwill also have the co-op Zombies mode and the single-player campaign, which fans got a new look at during the Gamescom Opening Night Live event, which included a special appearance by Laura Bailey.
Laura Bailey helped introduce a look at theCall of Duty: Vanguardcampaign, with a playthrough of a level called Stalingrad Summer. In this particularCall of Duty: Vanguardmission, Bailey’s character Polina Petrova (who is based on real-world female snipers that were active during World War 2) experiences the German invasion of Stalingrad. The gameplay footage does a great job of showing offCall of Duty: Vanguard’s graphics, with the footage seemingly pulled from the PS5 version of the game.

It’s apparent from the gameplay trailer thatCall of Duty: Vanguardis using theModern Warfareengine, though the graphics do seem to be upgraded from that game. Based on the campaign footage, it definitely looks like the game will have a lot in common withModern Warfaregameplay-wise.
TheCall of Duty: Vanguardcampaigngameplay on display in the trailer showed a good mix of stealth, shooting, and even climbing, the latter of which isn’t exactly the most common feature to appear in aCall of Dutygame. While it doesn’t appear to be rewriting theCall of Dutyformula, it does appear as thoughCall of Duty: Vanguardwill still be providing the highly-polished experience that fans have come to expect from the franchise.
Those more interested inCall of Duty’s other game modes should be able to learn more about them sooner rather than later. PlayStation fans will be able to go hands-on with theCall of Duty: VanguardAlphafrom August 27 to August 29, while Zombies news is sure to come prior to the game’s November launch as well. As it stands, not much is known about theCall of Duty: VanguardZombies game modebeyond the fact that it’s being developed by Treyarch, so it will definitely be interesting to see it in action, whenever that happens.
