The latest disclosure claims Makarov will escape from the Gulag, a term Warzone players are familiar with. The original Gulag, hidden within Verdansk and deep beneath the Zordaya Prison Complex, is important.

Given Verdansk's confirmed reappearance in Modern Warfare 3, it's possible that this particular area serves as Makarov's imprisonment point. This insight emphasizes the possibility of the area's crucial involvement in the impending plot.


Everything about Makarov revealed so far in Modern Warfare 3

A critical event in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's cinematic ending occurred when it was revealed that Russian Ultranationalists had joined forces with an intriguing individual. In response to this disclosure, Laswell gave Captain Price a photograph of this mystery leader, who turned out to be none other than Makarov. Captain Price quickly recognized the significance of the image.

Furthermore, the post-credits scene, which depicted Makarov's people hijacking an airplane, made an unforgettable impression on gamers' minds. His unmistakable trademark was a terrifying message: "No Russian," signaling the start of the hijack scenario.

A later trailer that featured Makarov front and center added to the mystery around his persona. He was represented as a prisoner, giving viewers a tantalizing glimpse of his face. This teaser served as a striking reminder of his existence and announced his upcoming return as MW3's catastrophic antagonist.
