Call of Duty: World at War

The first campaign begins on August 17, 1942, on Makin-Atoll in the Asian-Pacific region. Pvt. Miller sits in a hut and watches as his squadmates are brutally murdered by Japanese soldiers. However, when an American bayonet comes out of one soldier's stomach, the roles are turned, and Pvt. Miller helps the American troops drive back the enemy.

The second campaign starts on September 17, 1942, in Stalingrad. Pvt. Petrenko survives a brutal attack and begins his journey to kill General Heinrich Amsel under the guidance of Sgt. Reznov.

The game features a multiplayer mode similar to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare with various playtypes, including Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and Search & Destroy. The ranking system allows players to gain experience points and levels up to unlock additional weaponry, attachments, or abilities. These can be used to create custom classes, in addition to the pre-defined ones.
