The next mission shows a terrorist attack in London, using bombs created by Makarov's right-hand-man who is also Fregata's owner. Price has grown more ruthless during Modern Warfare 3, since when he tracks down the African warlord known as Waraabe, he extracts information from him by threatening him with a death by poisonous chemicals.
When Waraabe cracks, Price shoots him dead and the team continues with their unofficial business within Africa. The execution of a target for interrogation harks back to Call of Duty 4, where Price shoots Khaled Al-Asad in the head after interrogating him in a farm house in Azerbaijan.
The final fight involves Price and Yuri assaulting a hotel in Dubai with the Juggernaut suits, and a final battle with Vladimir Makarov for the misery he has caused. During the fight, Price strangles Makarov to death by crashing him through the glass roof of the building. When Price himself lands on solid ground the camera pans to the twitching body of the now-dead Vladimir Makarov in his final moments, and allows players to see Price smoking a cigar.
The cigar is a homage to the opening of Call of Duty 4, perhaps suggesting a closure for the story.

After killing General Shepherd, both Price and Soap are labeled as war criminals. Trivia Unlike in the original Call of Duty, Price does not die to help his allies. In the original game Price sacrifices himself to ensure that the charges planted on the German Tirpitz warship detonate, while the player escapes. It is also shown in the original game that the previous Captain Price is fluent in German, rapidly responding to a question raised by one of the crew members aboard the ship.
Price tells the rest of the team about his past mission to assassinate Zakhaev. During the escape attempt eight hours later, the team is then extracted by a unit of Force Recon Marines led by SSgt. Marines, and Loyalists in capturing Viktor Zakhaev.
This mission takes them through an abandoned Russian village, ending at a five-story building. Price orders Soap to "take his Zakhaev's weapon and restrain him. Viktor's death deeply affects Imran Zakhaev, who threatens to launch missiles at the United States. In the end, he still launches them anyway. The SAS and Marines then fight through the facility, deactivating the nukes. During the events of No Fighting In The War Room , the joint task force breaches the facility, eventually reaching the control center.
Soap then uploads the missile abort codes and self-destructs the nukes over the Atlantic, saving the U. Eastern Seaboard from nuclear annihilation. Zakhaev is last seen departing the facility in an Ultranationalist helicopter.
Captain Price slides his M After deactivating the missiles, Price, Soap, Gaz and Griggs are chased on a highway in trucks, but an enemy Hind helicopter destroys a bridge, stopping their escape. A tanker truck blows up, badly wounding Price and the others. Griggs and Gaz are both killed but Price manages to slide his M over to Soap, who kills Zakhaev and his bodyguards when they are distracted by the arrival of a Loyalist helicopter gunship that destroys the Hind.
Afterwards, a Russian medic can be seen trying, seemingly in vain, to revive Price. He and Soap are taken to a Russian hospital. Despite the best efforts of the combined U. Sometime after recovering from their wounds sustained in the Zakhaev incident, both Price and Soap were reassigned to General Shepherd 's newly formed elite unit, Task Force However, the raid went awry and the strike force was overwhelmed by dozens of Ultranationalist soldiers.
The team escaped via a V Osprey , with the exception of Price, who was captured while covering the team's escape. This then led to The Gulag, where Price was known as Prisoner Price pointing his AK at Roach near the end of the mission.
After capture, Price was imprisoned in a Gulag to the east of Petrovpavlosk, Russia, and was designated "Prisoner ". Price would remain imprisoned in the Gulag until , when he was rescued by Task Force when they attacked the site to recover him.
Upon being discovered, Price mistakenly attacked Sgt. Gary "Roach" Sanderson , a fellow member of the , and aimed an AK at him, but after recognizing Captain MacTavish , he relents and joins the unit and MacTavish returns the M pistol used to kill Zakhaev in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare when Soap returns the pistol, he says "This belongs to you, sir", a reference to the first Modern Warfare.
After his rescue from the gulag, Price is reinstated into the Task Force and reprises his role as a captain, being present in the Task Force 's mission briefings. However, Price decides, against the wishes of General Shepherd, who insisted that Makarov be their top priority, that the war still raging in the United States needs to end before they focus on Makarov.
He acts as a specialist in a raid on a Russian naval base , seemingly to destroy a submarine, only to launch a nuclear missile towards the United States with the purpose of using an electromagnetic pulse on the Eastern Coast of the United States.
Army Rangers but also destroys all electrical equipment during the Battle of Washington D. After the Contingency mission, Task Force is directed to two places where Makarov could be hiding; a safehouse on the Georgian-Russian border and an arms deal at an aircraft boneyard in southwestern Afghanistan. The unit splits up; With Ghost , Roach , and the bulk of the task force taking the safehouse, while Price investigates the arms deal with Soap.
However, both forces are attacked by Shepherd 's men. Price attempts to warn Ghost and Roach about Shepherd, but he is too late. Although Soap is shocked and angered, Price tells him that he never trusted Shepherd in the first place. Intent on revenge, Price asks Makarov for intel on Shepherd's location, on the premise that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" and that he will "do the rest".
Makarov grudgingly tells Price that Shepherd is using a secret mountain base in Afghanistan, designated "Site Hotel Bravo". Makarov then says, "I'll see you in hell. Give my regards to Zakhaev for me if you get there first. Price preparing to engage Shadow Company.
They are dropped off at Site Hotel Bravo by Nikolai and stealthily infiltrate the base. Shepherd self-destructs the entire base and then orders a Danger-Close artillery strike, intending to kill the duo at the cost of his own men. Soap and Price survive and pursue Shepherd on a Zodiac speedboat along a river. Shepherd eventually boards a Pave Low , but Price is able to shoot it down. However, the Zodiac he and Soap are on falls down a waterfall.
Soap is separated from Price and attempts to kill Shepherd with his knife, only for Shepherd to counter the attack and stab Soap with his own knife. Just as Shepherd is about to execute Soap with his. Price is overpowered by Shepherd and is close to being beaten to death, but is saved when Soap pulls the knife out of his chest and throws it into Shepherd's left eye, killing the treacherous general.
Price wakes up and starts to patch up Soap's injuries as much as he can. The two are then evacuated by Nikolai , who informs them of a potential hiding place. During the course of the betrayal, Task Force is disavowed and Price and MacTavish are labeled as wanted war criminals. After killing Shepherd, Soap's wounds nearly cause him to bleed to death on the trip to Nikolai's safehouse in India.
To make matters worse, a large group of Makarov's men assault the safehouse in an attempt to kill the remnants of Task Force Soap would not have survived had it not been for the actions of Price, Nikolai, and newfound ally Yuri. It sounded so old and tired. Who would blame him? His daughter is wanted for treason which was the highest offense.
Anyone with the same problem would have been far worse but General Malloy managed to maintain his composure throughout all of this. Frost admired that in the man. I need you to stay sharp, understand Frost?
I'm not called Frost for nothing. Frost didn't need a beer or an evening out with his friends. He wanted an evening out with Daniels. Her face was imprinted in his mind. While Sledgehammer and Activision remain mum on any potential connection, it's highly unlikely that any of the modern members show up here, as it just wouldn't make sense from an age or story perspective. However, Vanguard may attempt to establish the origins of the Task Force and its importance throughout the franchise's fictional history.
If the name Task Force sounds familiar, it's because this group was heavily featured in the original Modern Warfare series of games that began in Also known as The One-Four-One, the special operations group is a multinational operation comprised of members from the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, and more. Serving largely as the protagonists of the trilogy, the group spearheaded a number of covert operations against rogue factions, most notably against the Russian Ultranationalist known as Vladimir Makarov.
As players witnessed, Makarov orchestrated a number of events, including a massacre at the Zakhaev International Airport during the events of Modern Warfare 2 ; made to look like an American soldier had organized the attack. Ultimately, Makarov's actions caused a full-scale invasion of the United States by Russian forces, setting the stage for a major betrayal.
The group's assumed commander, Lieutenant General Shepherd, began to develop a negative view of the world, losing 30, soliders to the nuclear attack seen by players in the original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. While leading Task Force , Shepherd also created his own military force known as Shadow Company, members that were fiercely loyal to him and would follow his orders without question.
While Task Force continued to pursue Makarov and discover evidence on his whereabouts, Shepherd attempted to take credit for Makarov's capture, cementing his status as a war hero and destroying any potential loose ends that could unravel his plan.
