What will happen to Captain Price in Modern Warfare 3 (2023)?

While it has been confirmed that Captain Price will return in Modern Warfare 3, fans are worried that the worst might befall his fate. As mentioned, the trailer showcasing him getting shot at his chest. This is surely a worrisome sequence for Call of Duty fans around the globe.

In the original Modern Warfare series, beloved characters died frequently as the game's plot developed. For instance, Gaz died in Call of Duty 4, along with several other characters. Similarly, Modern Warfare 2 saw the death of Ghost and Roach in one of the most iconic death scenes in video games. Followed by their demise, the original MW3 saw the deaths of Soap and Yuri.

However, in the entirety of the original series, only one character survived to tell the tale, and it is none other than Captain Price. The grumpy veteran lived through all hell and finally got his revenge in the end. That said, we are yet to see the death of any of the main characters in the rebooted series. All of the "good guys" are alive and well.

Hence, fans are speculating that the fates will reverse this time around. Instead of characters like Ghost, Soap, and Gaz dying, the old man Captain Price will face death at the conclusion of the rebooted trilogy. However, these are merely speculations, and nothing can be said for certain. But considering that Task Force 141 will go head-to-head against Makarov (as per speculations), many deaths are certain.
