    There’s something here for everyone, as it feels like almost three separate games based on what you prefer to play. Sledgehammer Games has become a great storyteller with their (mostly) exciting campaign, solid multiplayer that keeps you hooked as you level up and earn Supply Drops, and a Nazi Zombie mode that’s sure to have you and your friends scratching your heads trying to solve its mysteries. They could have played it safe, but they weren’t happy with the status quo, which is where Headquarters and War spawned from, a great multiplayer addition to the series, and one that I hope stays going forward. It’s time to get the squad back together and get back into some intense World War II action as Call of Duty is indeed back and this year’s entry is pretty much a ‘must play’ for fans of the series, and fans of video games alike.

    The campaign production values are amazing as always, with excellent acting and motion capture, huge set pieces, and a fair bit of variety. And of course, WWII shows serious dedication to multiplayer with the new headquarters social hub, the excellent new war mode, and a gritty co-op Zombies mode. Whether you're interested in campaign or multiplayer, Call of Duty: WWII is the complete package and a must-play first-person shooter this holiday season.

    A welcome return to the origins for Call of Duty, with an immersive campaign and a classic multiplayer. The new Zombi mode is the one that feels more improved and a step forward, while multiplayer could have used a bit more of innovation, but it's still highly enjoyable.

    Call of Duty WWII isn’t a perfect game, but it is a solid one. What we really miss is a graphical upgrade on its engine and a campaign mode with more personality. Feels good to be back at World War II with the great gameplay that the game offers, its multiplayer and the always fun zombie mode.

    Call of Duty: WWII is a game that was much requested by fans and ultimately hits most of its targets. The story mode's focus on in-the-trenches brotherhood falls short of its mark due to introducing a dozen or so characters and only getting a few of them to stand out. However, if you're coming back to the series annually you're probably in it for its other two modes, multiplayer and zombies. In both instances, they innovate in fun ways. At times, it does feel like the whole package benefits from the simple timeline swap. If you gave up on the franchise's small maps and repetitive story structure, WWII doesn't do enough to make you want to come back. It remains true to itself, for better or worse. For anyone who still plays the games with glee every November, Call of Duty: WWII is a better-late-than-never return to the series' roots.

    Call of Duty: WWII is most definitely a more than decent entry to the franchise. The return of boots-on-the-ground gameplay is certainly welcomed and it’s good to see Sledgehammer Games take a little risk and try out some new features.

    This feels like the most wheel-spinning, by-the-numbers Call of Duty they've made thus far.

No, but I really think it's a lot better than most CoD games from the past 5 - 6 years. Why? Cause it is legit just fun to play. A nice balance between being competitive and bring casual. It doesn't take itself too seriously, which I think is great.… Expand

    The multiplayer is just fine for what it does, All though some of the maps take away from the more serious tones of the time period the game is set in, and watching people getting lootboxes fall from the sky can get very tiresome after a while but it still has the classic CoD gameplay we all come to expect now and the campaign is a fantastic one at that.

    Give this one a chance and who knows, you may be surprised.    … Expand

Zombies was OK i guess and multiply player is so boring it isn't even funny. If you want to play with some random people online you will almost never find a match and even if you do your going to get kicked off the game around round 10-12.

    This is call of duty, where they take your money and deliver a piss poor game.

    I've spent more time on loading screens than playing the    This is call of duty, where they take your money and deliver a piss poor game.

    I've spent more time on loading screens than playing the game. It takes 5 minutes to connect to a base of ops. fine. join a game, the scoreboard at the end is broken 90% of the time so you cant leave or vote for another map. then when you finally are able to quit at the end of the timer, it takes another 5 minutes to join a base of ops again. Thats if you don't timeout, btw.

    AND THIS IS AFTER THEY "FIXED" IT AFTER THE FUMBLED LAUNCH.

    gave it a 1/10 because it has a campaign, but tbh it doesn't matter how the campaign is, its overshadowed by the fact that they have no idea what they are doing when it comes to multiplayer or social space or anything regarding a network. at all. if they can't fix it in the next day or so, its not even worth it to me. i'll be returning it without hesitation.    … Expand

    This game is very"weird". sometimes its fun, other times you feel like screaming at your TV or monitor.

    CAMPAIGN. The campaign is all    This game is very"weird". sometimes its fun, other times you feel like screaming at your TV or monitor.

    CAMPAIGN.

    The campaign is all over the place.My favorite mission in this "campaign" is the first mission. if the first mission is the only good mission, thats when you have just **** up big time. I legit forgot the ending, but i dont need to know the ending to know what its gonna be. Its gonna end all like your the best and no one else could have done what you did. the "campaign" feels more like im watching a on rails movie then a actual game. The amount of explosions in the "campaign" felt like i was watching a battle unfold in fallout 4 if they all had fat mans.

    ZOMBIES.

    Zombies is actually really underrated. I mean, i know it do'sent really have anything special about it but if you think about it, neither did nacth dier untoten from WAW, same with verrtuck, shi no numa, and kino der toten. people always say those are the best maps ever, but they only say that because its treyarch. Like the "campaign" theirs a lot of explosions . Im actually okay with it because its made up so i dont give a **** now lets go into the biggest part of the game yet, the reason you bought this ****ing game.

    MULTI--wait i gotta wait for a update? k.
    *1 hour later*
    MULTIPLAYER.

    Multiplayer is really unbalanced. i mean all of these "nerf's" and "buffs" really do nothing. so what if they nerfed the STG or the FG42, those guns are still really overpowered. the maps are all the same in this game, left middle right.The new DLC guns are trash, the gewher 43 is like a m1a1 carbine, the sten is like a **** version of the grease gun, the GPMG is worse then pre-buffed Bren, the Ice Pick needs a little more range, the trench knifve is ok. my favriote map is opetation neptune. and thats it.
