Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has entered the realms of reality as the game’s publisher Activision unveils the first official game play trailer for the upcoming first person shooter.

As well as offering the first glimpse of in-game footage from the next addition to the globally dominant Call of Duty franchise, the teaser trailer has given an insight to the games plot and confirmed its much mooted and widely predicted release date as November 8th.

Set at the cusp of World War 3, the trailer for Modern Warfare 3 shows clips of game footage with levels to be set in America’s New York City as well as Europe’s leading cities including London, Paris and Berlin.

Whilst widespread leaks had already covered off the game’s release date and storyline, the trailer, available below, gives eager gamers their first look at the title that will try to emulate the record breaking success of last year’s Call of Duty: Black Ops release.
