Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is a first-person shooter video game developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision. Officially announced on February 11, 2009, the game was released worldwide on November 10, 2009 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Microsoft Windows. It is the sixth installment of the Call of Duty series[4] and the direct sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, continuing the same storyline, with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 ending the storyline. It was released in conjunction with two other Call of Duty games: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized for the Nintendo DS, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex, a port of Call of Duty 4 adapted by Treyarch for the Wii console.

Development for the game began in 2008, when it was still known as Call of Duty 6; eventually, the full title was revealed. Modern Warfare 2 uses the IW 4.0 engine, an improved version of Call of Duty 4's IW 3.0 engine. Infinity Ward was inspired by real-life conflicts when developing the game's campaign mode. They initially tested the game's multiplayer mode by playing an in-house beta version of the game. Teasing of the game began in March 2009, with short trailers being released for the game. During the 2009 NBA Eastern Conference Finals, the game's official reveal trailer was shown. The game's multiplayer was revealed shortly after.

The game's campaign follows the Task Force 141, a special forces unit fronted by Captain Soap MacTavish, and the United States Army Rangers as they hunt Vladimir Makarov, leader of the Russian Ultranationalist party. The game's main playable characters are Gary "Roach" Sanderson, of the 141, and James Ramirez, of the Army Rangers, with Captain MacTavish becoming playable later in the campaign. The game's multiplayer mode contains more content in comparison to Call of Duty 4. Several new features and modes were introduced into the game. Two downloadable content packs were also released for the mode, each containing four new maps.

Modern Warfare 2 has been critically acclaimed by various gaming websites, attaining a 94/100 aggregate score on Metacritic, with praise stemming primarily from its in-depth multiplayer component. Within 24 hours of release, the game sold approximately 4.7 million copies in North America and the United Kingdom. In addition to its release, a comic book series based on one of the game's characters was also produced, entitled Modern Warfare 2: Ghost.[8] Despite the game's success, it was subject to some controversies, with one surrounding a playable level that had the player carry out a terror attack on an airport.
