This may or may not be true, however, considering the initial reveal trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III. The trailer showed antagonist Makarov inside a prison. But there are other speculations as well, floating online related to Operation 627. They suggest that the mission may involve freeing Captain Price, due to its connection to an old quest in the franchise, related to the character. In 2009’s Modern Warfare 2 Campaign, there was a mission called The Gulag. It focused on rescuing Price who was called prisoner 627.
