About

Return to the thick of the Second World War in Call of Duty 3. Released in November of 2006, Call of Duty 3 takes the best features from the previous COD 1 and 2 and adds new innovations. Close Quarter Battles (CQB) make their introduction in this entry, featuring special quick time events when engaged by the enemy in melee. Make the right choices or be killed by the opposing soldier.

The single-player campaign lets you take control of soldiers from the Allied Forces, including the American, British, Canadian, and Polish armies. Multiplayer becomes more intense with the ability to affect the battlefield environment, including destroying cover!
