Critic Reviews
- Inferior maps are a shame because the rest of multiplayer is brilliantly crafted, exhaustive and packed full of content. The number of different game modes alone puts almost every other shooter to shame. Still, despite such problems, this remains the best Call Of Duty we've seen in years and is the wake-up call the series so desperately needed. Things had been looking stagnant for a while, but the future looks bright once again.
John Robertson · Nov 18, 2014 Reviewed on PS4 - Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare isn’t going to make people who hate the series suddenly take notice, but for those that have felt the franchise has been falling flat lately, it definitely re-energizes it. This is the Call of Duty game fans have been clamoring for, and I feel sorry for the team that has to try and top it next year.
Ken McKown · Nov 13, 2014 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Call of Duty remains comparable to the carbonated corn syrup it partners with every year: it’s the Mountain Dew of shooters. I start drinking it and I’m not really sure I like it, but I just keep drinking and drinking until I’m all jittery and agitated. Then I can’t sleep, so screw it, I just drink some more and see if I won something under the cap.
Tyler Wilde · Nov 08, 2014 Reviewed on PCRead full review - In conclusion, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is one of the largest evolutionary steps the franchise has taken since CoD 4. Similar gameplay, and pulling the best things from previous titles, and coupling them with a new movement system and graphics system was a smart decision, and Sledgehammer Games really gave the franchise a nice spin. The sound design is strange for the weapons, the story is cliche, and there is a learning curve compared to the standard point and shoot of other games in the franchise.
Ben Kuyt · Nov 07, 2014 Reviewed onRead full review - There’s a lot to like about what Sledgehammer has done here, and it will be interesting to see how the other developers in the Call of Duty family handle their respective franchises after all the big changes Advanced Warfare has brought to the table. It’s been a long time since a Call of Duty game has felt so new and foreign. With Advanced Warfare, Sledgehammer Games has managed to invigorate a once familiar franchise that was in danger of growing stale.
Luke Brown · Nov 07, 2014 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Punchy, futuristic weapons, even faster gameplay, and additional agility make Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare a joy to play, both offline and online. With a campaign that features several spectacular scenarios and a brilliantly robust and incredibly moreish multiplayer offering, Sledgehammer Games has succeeded in crafting a title that feels fresh but familiar, and does just enough to put the franchise back on track after the disappointing Call of Duty: Ghosts.
Robert Ramsey · Nov 06, 2014 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Nothing here is truly new, and in many cases, it’s all been done before in other titles. Still, that doesn’t mean that Advanced Warfare is a bad game. In fact, it’s a competent shooter that scratches exactly the itch that Call of Duty players want scratched — a new setting, some new abilities, and lots of new maps within which to shoot each other. Just don’t expect anything you haven’t already seen before.
Ron Whitaker · Nov 05, 2014 Reviewed on PC - Call of Duty doesn’t just return to its explosive roots here; it manages to create a new metaphor for the American bang-bang shooter consumers who continue to drive sales of both it and other major franchises. Rather than a snake simply requesting players not tread on it, it is the snake eating itself.
Daniel Bischoff · Nov 05, 2014 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - In many ways, Advanced Warfare is another series reboot. While it lacks the sheer audacity of Modern Warfare's approach that shook up the shooter genre, it is staking a claim as its own part in Activision's ongoing Call of Duty arsenal. After annualization that had led to a seeming sense of complacency, Sledgehammer has joined with the best entry in years. Satisfying fans is one thing, but this one subverted my skepticism and brought me back.
Steve Watts · Nov 05, 2014 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Call of Duty presided as king over an entire generation. It is now Robert Baratheon, old and tired and surrounded by hungry contenders, having fathered a dozen bastards and now living off the glory of a time when it was young, ambitious, and able to change the world. The sad fact is, the limp half-effort to "advance" the gameplay only highlights how archaic it's become, copying ideas from newer games, but miring those ideas in antiquity.

About the game
Trailers & Screenshots:
Academy Award winning actor Kevin Spacey stars as Jonathan Irons -- one of the most powerful men in the world -- shaping this chilling vision of the future of war. The game takes place in a plausible future in which technological progress and today's military practices have converged with powerful consequences. In this carefully researched and crafted vision of the future, Private Military Corporations (PMCs) have become the dominant armed forces for countless nations outsourcing their military needs, redrawing borders and rewriting the rules of war. And Jonathan Irons, the founder and president of the world's largest PMC, Atlas Corporation, is at the center of it all.
