The verdict
A divisive, nostalgic CoD whose Extinction co-op mode and campaign are loved, but PC multiplayer is nearly dead and plagued by cheaters. Skip it if you want online multiplayer.
Great for
Fans of Extinction alien co-op with friends, nostalgic CoD players, and campaign or bot-match players
Main risk
Buying for multiplayer and finding empty lobbies, cheaters and unreliable servers
What players love
Fun classic multiplayer and maps
Mentioned in ~1 in 6 positive reviews

Server problems and online-only DRM
