✓ Nearly identical: shooter, first-person shooting and combat tactical.

≠ Missing: adventure storytelling.

The Makarov campaign's conclusion, plus a full multiplayer suite of remastered classic maps and an open-world extraction Zombies mode. The multiplayer is the part that is genuinely well regarded. The campaign is short and widely considered the weakest in the reboot trilogy, and cheating in the online modes is the complaint that dominates recent reviews rather than anything about the design.
