The event objective was simple: To free the Zaya Observatory by taking down the Konni forces. In the words of Shadow Company commander Philip Graves himself “This is an airborne to ground assault of the Konni-occupied Zaya Observatory”. However, the observatory got eventually destroyed.

After completing the mission, players who succeeded in finishing the objectives, were greeted to an action-packed trailer in Warzone. It showed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III’s upcoming Campaign.

The ultranationalist war criminal Vladimir Makarov is extending his grasp across the world causing Task Force 141 to fight like never before.”
