<p>The initial game of the Call of Duty franchise was created by Infinity Ward and released in 2003. It marked the beginning of a series of games that center around World War II, similar to popular titles like Medal of Honor. In the inaugural Call of Duty game, players experience three separate campaigns, each following a different soldier from the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union.</p>



<p>In the Call of Duty game series, players embark on different military campaigns throughout history. One of these campaigns follows the journey of Private Martin, an American soldier who undergoes training in 1942 and later takes part in the invasion of Normandy in 1944. </p>



<p>Another campaign features British Sergeant Evans, who fights in Operation Tonga during the same year. Evans receives assistance from the recurring character, Captain Price. Additionally, players also experience the campaign of Soviet soldier Alexei Ivanovich Voronin, which unfolds during the Battle of Stalingrad.</p>

</figure>



<p>In the follow-up to the initial game, the sequel maintains the same settings and nations but offers a fresh take on the perspective. Rather than featuring three campaigns, players now get to experience four different ones. </p>



<p>These include the viewpoint of a North American soldier, a Soviet Union soldier, and two from the British soldiers&#8217; point of view. In the game, you take on the role of Private Vasili Koslov, tasked with protecting Moscow from the invading Nazi German soldiers.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, another character named Bill Taylor from North America joins the army to participate in the assault on La Pointe du Hoc during the historically significant D-Day. On the other hand, Sergeant John Davis and David Welsh, both British soldiers, find themselves involved in the conflict in North Africa. Davis is under the command of Captain Price.</p>

<p>Following the release of Call of Duty 3, Treyarch returned a few years later to create their final installment based on the ongoing conflict that has been a central theme in the series. However, this time, the campaign was divided into two main forces: the North American and Soviet forces. </p>



<p>The player assumes the role of American Marine Private C. Miller during the Makin Island raid in 1942 and later in the Battle of Peleliu, where American forces confront the Japanese army. The Soviet section of the game takes place in the Battle of Stalingrad, specifically on the Eastern Front, with the player embodying Private Dimitri Petrenko.</p>

<p>Treyarch, a different game developer than Infinity Ward, took on the challenge of creating Call of Duty 3, the first game in the series that they developed. Set in 1944, the game portrays the intense battles of World War II in the village of Chambois, France, during the Battle of Normandy.</p>



<p>Players can experience the war from the perspectives of armies from Britain, Poland, the United States, Canada, and France as they fight against the Nazi forces of Germany. It&#8217;s worth noting that this particular game is not available for PC gaming.</p>

<p>As players assume the role of Red, they engage in intense battles against Nazi German forces throughout various European locations, starting from Normandy and culminating in Germany. Although Call of Duty: WWII includes a few flashback sequences set in 1940, positioning it as the first game in the chronological order, the primary storyline predominantly occurs in 1944.</p>

<p>Sledgehammer Games, the developer of the latest installment in the Call of Duty franchise, has returned to its roots with a World War II setting. This time, the game offers a unique perspective by presenting multiple characters on various fronts of the war. </p>



<p>The primary goal is to uncover the secrets of Project Phoenix, a covert Nazi initiative that could potentially alter the course of the war in favor of Germany. While Vanguard includes flashback sequences that take place in 1941, the majority of the campaign is set in 1945, towards the end of the war.</p>
