What it is
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is a first-person military shooter set in a future where humanity has spread across the Solar System and a war breaks out with a hostile faction. The player takes the role of a pilot-commander, fighting through infantry firefights on planets and stations as well as zero-gravity and dogfighting sequences in a customizable fighter. Combat is realistic gunplay against human and robotic enemies with blood but no dismemberment. The campaign carries heavy war themes, including the deaths of named crew members, and its dialogue includes strong profanity. A separate cooperative Zombies mode pits players against undead hordes in a darker, campier register. Online multiplayer includes open voice and text chat with strangers.
How it's framed
The campaign presents its violence in the frame of a military conflict, treating combat as duty and sacrifice; it emphasizes the loss of comrades and the weight of command rather than glorifying killing. The Zombies mode plays its horror for entertainment with a lighthearted, over-the-top tone.
