You will receive early access to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's campaign if you pre-ordered this title. Highrise is the game's tenth mission, and your main goal in it is to capture Andrei Nolan, the Konni group's leader. This mission involves only one objective, but you have complete control over how you approach it. You can go in guns blazing or stealthily, taking out enemies discreetly while planning your next move.

This game will feature many characters from the rebooted Modern Warfare trilogy. Sergeant Kyle "Gaz" Garrick is among them. In Highrise, you play as him, trying to find Nolan in an apartment building in Russia.

This guide will walk you through this Modern Warfare 3 mission and also discuss the rewards that you will unlock when you complete it.

The main objective of this mission is to access the roof of an apartment building and capture Andrei Nolan. This is one of the open combat missions in Modern Warfare 3. Hence, you can take any route and approach it however you want.

After Laswell debriefs Task Force 141, Captain Price and Sergeant Gaz head to St. Petersburg in Russia to capture Nolan.

The former character will get a few guns to assist him during his mission in the apartment complex. That said, here's what you need to do as him in Highrise:

  • Reach the rooftop
  • Secure the rooftop
  • Secure Nolan
  • Attach Nolan to the exfil site
  • Holdout until exfil
  • Attach to Skyhook

Gaz and Price will request an airlift, which will take some time. Until the airplane arrives, a large number of adversaries will spawn. Take cover and hold your ground. Do not try running around the rooftop because the army will surround you and kill you.
