A Call of Duty fan shares a map that highlights every single country the series has had a multiplayer map since Call of Duty 4.

With Call of Duty just launching its fifth season for Call of Duty: Warzone and Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Activision’s franchise continues to prove that it is an absolute behemoth in the gaming world. First releasing on PC in 2003 as Call of Duty, the series began as a World War 2 FPS focused on intense large-scale battles and authenticity. It has since become one of the biggest franchises around with over 400 million copies sold and titles taking place in various places all over the world.

Spanning 18 mainline titles and several offshoots, Call of Duty has covered an abundance of different time periods beyond World War 2, such as the Cold War, modern-day warfare, and even the future with games like Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Although online multiplayer became part of the franchise with Call of Duty: United Offensive in 2004, it became much more pronounced with the release of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in 2007. Since then, Call of Duty has released a multitude of multiplayer maps with each title, set in countries like Russia, China, and Germany.

With there being so many multiplayer maps included in the Call of Duty series over the years, players have to wonder just how much of the globe it has covered at this point. A Reddit user who goes by the handle Interesting-Walrus39 has created a map showing the location of every multiplayer map in the series since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Featuring locations across the world like Russia, China, Madagascar, and Brazil, the map covers a staggeringly large amount of countries all over the world.

Shared on the Call of Duty Reddit community, the post has garnered plenty of attention, grabbing over two thousand upvotes and over five hundred comments. Other members of Reddit have begun nostalgically reminiscing over their favorite Call of Duty maps and are trying to identify where popular fan-favorite maps were located.

It isn’t easy to create a series with as much longevity as Call of Duty, but Activision has managed to keep the franchise relevant with tight controls, smooth gunplay, and engaging progression systems that keep players invested. The games have been churned out with such frequency that Activision has three separate studios plus other support teams rotating development duties each year just to keep the content flowing.

Of course, Call of Duty isn’t without flaws either, like Call of Duty: Warzone’s massive hacker problem that it is currently battling. The games are also regularly criticized for being too similar to one another. Still, with Warzone just launching its fifth season and Call of Duty: Vanguard, set to release later this year, it seems Call of Duty is here to stay. One day, the series may just have a map for every country in the world.
