Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 has launched with an overwhelmingly positive reception on Steam, currently holding a "Very Positive" score of 90% from 1,630 of 1,812 user reviews. Insider Gaming first noted the trend when the title reached 81.15%, making it the best-rated Call of Duty on Steam since 2015's Black Ops III. The review count has more than doubled since then, pushing the positive share to 85.78%.
While these early figures are driven by enthusiastic pre-order customers accessing the campaign early, the momentum suggests the title could soon challenge Black Ops III's modern-era lead of 84.36%. SteamDB's weighting system pulls lower-reviewed games toward 50%, meaning Modern Warfare 4 may maintain its edge as more feedback arrives. Multiplayer and DMZ modes launch with the full release on October 23, which could shift the score significantly as the wider player base joins.
PC players should note that TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot are mandatory requirements to play. The strong early performance marks a sharp contrast to recent entries like Black Ops 7 at 38.71%, Black Ops 6 at 45.75%, and Modern Warfare III at 48.19%.
