🇺🇸 Call of Duty's new villain: Russia, again

The new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, out October 23, casts Mads Mikkelsen as "The Archer," Russia's Defense Minister and the man behind the war at the center of the game.

He tells North Korea's leadership that Russia will soon control West Asia, and offers to cripple South Korea the way Venezuela was. By the finale he lays out his plan for a "new Russian Empire": Ukraine, Poland, the rest of Europe, and England.

Nothing new for the franchise. In 2019's Modern Warfare, the developers took the "Highway of Death," where US aircraft destroyed retreating Iraqi columns in 1991, and rewrote it as a Russian atrocity.
