## Key points

- Black Ops 7 ranks last among 22 campaigns.
- The list weighs story, mission design and how well games have aged.
- The original Call of Duty made an impact but now feels dated.

## Summary

The article ranks 22 of the 23 mainline Call of Duty games by their campaigns, from worst to best, judging how well their stories and missions work. It puts 2025’s Black Ops 7 last, criticising its confusing plot, surreal boss fights and open-world missions, and arguing that its co-op focus makes solo play dull.

The ranking also faults Modern Warfare 3 (2023) for its directionless open combat missions and Black Ops 3 for an implausible, ability-heavy campaign. The original 2003 Call of Duty is praised as a landmark squad-based World War II shooter, though the article says it has aged poorly; it notes that Ghosts and Infinite Warfare have their fans but finds both underwhelming.
