Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019) mostly sticks to its roots, emphasizing gritty realism and traditional military themes. Some modern elements appear, but it falls well short of being considered a 'woke' overhaul.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Modern Warfare (2019) generally maintains a focus on military realism and gritty storytelling, with character traits based more on role and skill than identity. There is some emphasis on representation, such as female freedom fighter Farah, but it doesn't overwhelmingly dominate the narrative or sacrifice character development.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The game portrays themes of brotherhood, sacrifice, and moral ambiguity typical of previous entries. Traditional values like loyalty and family are present, and while it includes a capable female leader, masculine traits aren't pathologized or mocked.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Modern Warfare presents complex villains and allies, avoiding reductionist caricatures for the most part. While Western military forces are consistently shown as the 'least bad' option, there is some attempt at showing diverse perspectives. However, certain worldviews are treated more sympathetically than others.
