Presented from a first-person shooter perspective, Call of Duty: Advance Warfare gameplay is set in the year 2054, when KVA, known terrorist organization, initiates the first global terrorist attack in history by simultaneously destroying the nuclear reactors of developed countries around the globe, including the United States. Across all five continents, the massive terrorist attack damaged several essential infrastructures and crippled the nations' military forces. As the result, private military corporations (PMCs) have become the dominant armed forces for countless nations. The game's protagonist, Jack Mitchell (portrayed by Troy Baker), a former U.S. Marine who lost his left arm during the battle in Seoul, joins the Atlas Corporation, the world's most powerful private military company. Atlas is headed by Jonathan Irons (played by Kevin Spacey) and it executes clandestine operations across the globe for the highest bidder. All information needed to play the game is relayed through holographic projections from the weapon that will be used in the first-person shooter game.
