The skull mask is a key visual detail. It symbolizes anonymity, a psychological blow to enemies, and the character's inner transformation.
Cool-headed, combat prowess, and tactical flexibility. Expert in stealth operations, sniping, close-quarters combat, and exploiting the environment to accomplish objectives.
A closed, gloomy, but devoted character.
Ghost's defining characteristic is that he rarely expresses emotions openly, so his attitude is revealed through his actions and short remarks.

Manchester-born Simon Riley joined the Special Air Service and spent much of his career carrying out numerous short-term assignments and undercover missions in classified locations. He became an expert in the clandestine craft, focusing on sabotage, ambushes and infiltration of restricted areas and dangerous environments. Ghost hid his identity behind a signature skull mask to maintain anonymity in the field.

At one point, Ghost served in the same unit as Mace.

Following the incursion of Al-Qatala into Verdansk on March 3, 2020, Ghost was dispatched to the city to assist in the implementation of the truce initiative against the terrorist organization provided by Victor Zakhaev. During one of the Entente's operations, Ghost helped the team infiltrate the occupied Verdansk airport to retrieve a nuclear weapon.

When Al-Qatala released toxic gas in Verdansk, Ghost discovered a chaotic situation where the Accord operators turned on themselves and began attacking each other. He soon asked Price to send him reinforcements he could trust. Ghost managed to escape the city and was sent to a classified location, where Price informed him that Zakhaev's plan had worked and the truce was now officially broken. Ghost was assisted during this operation by Alex Keller, who was sent by Price.

In December 2020, Ghost helped Price in Verdansk prevent Zakhaev from launching a missile attack on Verdansk. Ghost, along with Alex, Gus, Price, Nikolai, and Farah Kareem, communicate with Johnny "Soap" McTavish and help him "a few clicks off the coast of Verdansk."

After the death of General Roman Barkov, Ghost was recruited by Captain John Price into the newly formed Task Force 141, where he became commander.

relationship with each of the crew
With Captain Price
A strong bond between the mentor and the mentee has developed here. Price sees potential in Soap and takes him on dangerous missions, and Soap, in turn, respects the commander and is ready to go after him. In cooperative operations, the two have each other's backs: for example, in the Las Almas mission, Price coordinates and Soap performs risky tasks. They are united by a common goal and mutual trust - this is one of the emotional cores of the plot.
With Simon "Ghost" Riley
Their dynamics are one of the most discussed. At first, there may be some distance between them, but as the missions progress, especially after the betrayal of Shadow Company's Philip Graves, they grow closer. Soap and Ghost often work in pairs: one covers, the other goes for a breakthrough. In the dialogues, there is a slight banter, but behind it there is a deep mutual support. An important detail of the canon: only Ghost has the right to call Soap "Johnny" - for fans, this is a marker of special affinity. At critical moments (such as when Ghost saves Soap from falling off a building), their genuine concern is revealed.
With Kyle "Gas" Garrick
, there is more of an atmosphere of a friendly, slightly more informal connection. Soap and Gaz support each other in battle, joke, but at the same time clearly play the role of a well-coordinated link. Sometimes Soap can tease Gaz, but in a dangerous situation, he immediately comes to the rescue. Their interaction adds liveliness to the team and shows that the spirit of brotherhood reigns in OTG-141, and not just subordination.
Kate Laswell (CIA spokesperson) has a working, trusting relationship with
her. She acts as a conduit, provides intelligence, and Soap actively uses this support in missions.

John McTavish was born in Scotland and has been a lifelong football fan, often playing as a goalkeeper.
One day, MacTavish was invited by his cousin, a member of the 23rd Special Air Service Regiment, to see what it was like to serve in the British army. Subsequently, MacTavish often visited his cousin on weekends. When he was 16, he tried to enroll in SAS several times, and although he lied about his age, he was caught every time.
After his 18th birthday, McTavish officially joined the selection process for the 22nd Regiment, an elite squadron specializing in covert intelligence, counterterrorism, and hostage rescue. In 2014, during training in Hereford, MacTavish's appraiser was Captain John Price. Recognizing his natural ability, exceptional skill, and relentless dedication, Price became tough and strict with McTavish to make him a better trainee. MacTavish was also trained as a sniper and demolition expert. His astounding speed and accuracy in clearing rooms and fighting urban combat earned him the nickname "Soap".
When the tackle began, MacTavish passed it with the highest possible scores in all three legs of the distance, just a few seconds behind record holder Kyle "Gus" Garrick. He became the youngest candidate to be selected for the SAS in the history of the British Army.
For his first mission, Soap joined Bravo as she traveled to the Bering Strait to obtain a cargo manifest for potential weapons of mass destruction. While Soap retrieved the declaration, the ship was sunk by Russian planes, forcing the crew to abandon it. Being the last, Soap nearly fell to his death if Price hadn't dragged him to safety. From then on, Soap felt indebted to Price. After this mission, Soap continued to conduct covert and overt operations around the world.

Soap later received the Medal of Valor, the Victoria Cross, and the Distinguished Bravery Cross after the Urziqstan operation, during which his patrol was attacked by Al-Qatala. After the heavy machine gun failed, Soap disassembled the weapon and reassembled it before firing 150 single shots, re-cocking the trigger for each shot. However, Soap claimed that any of his comrades would have done the same.

In 2016, Soap was nearly disciplined for hitting a military police officer, knocking him out, and locking him in his own car. No charges were brought to avoid disgrace for the officer.

Meeting with Makarov
On April 6, 2019, Soap was sent to Verdansk along with Price and several other SAS operatives to stop Vladimir Makarov and his Inner Circle team from terrorizing the stadium in Verdansk. Makarov was captured and taken by helicopter, where Soap, Price, Simon "Ghost" Riley, and General Herschel Shepard interrogated him before realizing that his real target was the airport, which had been hit by multiple explosions shortly thereafter. Enraged, Soap tried to kill Makarov, but Price stopped him.

OTG-141
After the death of General Roman Barkov in November 2019 and under the leadership of Shepard, Price, with the help of CIA station chief Kate Laswell, created a new task force called OTG-141. Soap was selected for this new task force by Price along with Ghost and Gus.

attitude towards each of the crew
With Captain Price
U Gaza and Price are an experienced commander and a proven subordinate, in which there is both discipline and trust. Price appreciates Gaza for his composure and ability to keep pace in the toughest operations: Gaz does not panic, quickly assesses the situation and does what is necessary, without further ado. In the dialogues and scenes between them, you can feel respect without unnecessary pathos: Price gives the task, Gaz confirms the completion, and if there is a risk, he briefly warns. They worked in conjunction more than once (for example, during assaults and clean-up operations), and this practice strengthened a working, but strong alliance between them.
With Johnny "Soap" McTavish,
Gaz & Soap is a balance of calm and energy: Soap often charges the team with drive and humor, and Gaz balances it, preventing emotions from taking over at a critical moment. There is no rivalry between them, but rather complementarity. Soap can cheer you up, Gas can remind you of the plan and details. In battle, they cover each other, and they have developed a language of short commands and gestures that is understandable to both of them.
With Simon "Ghost" Riley
With Ghost, Gaza has a relationship between two professionals who value efficiency and do not waste words. Both are restrained, both are result-oriented, so their interaction looks especially coordinated: a minimum of unnecessary remarks, a maximum of action. Gaz does not try to "break through" to Ghost with conversations, he just clearly performs his part of the task, knowing that Ghost will do his own. At the same time, there is mutual respect between them: Gaza understands that Ghost can be relied on in the most difficult situation, and Ghost sees Gaza as a reliable fighter who will not let you down.

Piccadilly On October 25, 2019, Kyle, as a police officer, was sent to track the Al-Qatala
terrorists. They were in a white van, and when they were apprehended, the van drove away and exploded. This is how a terrorist attack took place in Piccadilly Circus. Kyle and other police officers had to fight against heavily armed al-Qatala militants, which they cope. Upon entering one of the occupied buildings in the square, Kyle was attacked by a terrorist, but the policeman was saved by Captain Price. In the same building, there is a hostage who has explosives on a timer, and Price has to sacrifice him to save the rest of the hostages, himself and Garrick. The latter kept important information, which he later shared with Price, and along with that, joined the Bravo group under his command.
Thanks
to this data, experts were able to track down the Al-Qatala cell that was responsible for the attack. 3 SAS squads, led by Captain Price, are heading to Camden Town, in north London, to clear a five-story building with terrorists. Kyle takes an active part in the clean-up process, and on the fifth floor, after neutralizing the terrorist, the squad discovers a laptop with data on the current location of Al-Qatala leader, Omar "Wolf" Sulaman.
According to this information, the CIA and the Marines, represented by Agent Alex and the Demon Dog Squad, organize an assault on the Ramaza hospital in Urzikstan and capture the Wolf, after which they send him to the local US embassy.

As
Agent Alex and Farah Karim, the leader of the Urzikstan militia, interrogate Wolf at the embassy, and the embassy building is surrounded by al-Qatala loyalists, Captain Price and Garrick fly in a helicopter to the embassy. But the terrorists break through and shoot down a helicopter with SAS troops. They miraculously survive, after which they move from the roof to the basement of the embassy, where Alex and Farah are holding the Wolf, stumbling upon militants storming the building on the way. Finally reaching the basement, Price leaves Kyle with cameras and a walkie-talkie to escort Assistant Ambassador Stacy Davidson to the right door while she and the team go to the door themselves because she has a key card. Kyle copes with this task and moves out to the others, after which Stacy gives him a key card.
The squad moves to the ambassador's residence to store Wolf. Al-Qatala organizes an attack on the residence, but the team repels the attacks with UAVs with missiles. Soon the terrorists begin to use mortars, and Kyle and Khadir, Farah's brother, go across the street to the house where the mortar crew is located, and clear it, after which they return back. But the militants broke through and freed Volk.
Alex ambushes Sulaman along with Farah and Khadir, but the latter uses Russian gas and moves to Al-Qatala's side.

The CIA's Wolf Lair
tracks the location of Khadir and Wolf and sends a team of Captain Price, Garrick, Alex, and Farah to capture them in the Acruz Mountains, near Takkari, Urzikstan. The Al-Qathals, having learned of the raid, try to destroy all the data, but several SAS squads quickly clear the houses. Price learns from one of the women that Wolf is hiding in the underground, and goes there with the team, but as soon as Alex and Farah managed to descend into the tunnel, the suicide bomber collapsed the entrance to it.
Alex and Farah fought their way through the tunnels, killing Sulaman on the way. His corpse was loaded onto a helicopter, and Kyle and Alex exchanged a few words before flying to base. At the base, the team learns that the Urzikstan militia and Farah are on the list of international terrorists, which none of the team agrees with. Alex stays behind to defend Urzikstan with Farah, but everyone remains friends to each other.
Old friends
Kyle and Price, at the initiative of the latter, go to St. Petersburg without orders, where they plan to look for Jamal Rahar, nicknamed "The Butcher". Nikolai, a Russian loyalist, helps them in this. He provides the special forces with several pistols with silencers. Price and Garrick, choosing one each, secretly enter the room where the Butcher is standing and begin to chase him, aiming to capture him alive in order to extract information about Khadir. After a long run, the Butcher is hit by Nikolai in a van while trying to run across the road.
The butcher is placed in this van and taken to the torture warehouse. Jamal does not want to split, and for this occasion, Nikolai has prepared a surprise in the form of Butcher's wife and son. Kyle, depending on the player's choice, can watch the torture or stay behind the door.
Kyle will participate in the torture, pointing his revolver at the Butcher and his family. Eventually, the Butcher will reveal the whereabouts of Gaz and Khadir, and the player will be given the option to kill him or keep him alive.
Kyle will wait until Price and Egor do all the dirty work.

Relation to each of the crew
Soap (Johnny McTavish). At first, Price treats him condescendingly - he sees him as a newcomer. But in the course of the story, their bond grows stronger: the captain begins to trust Soap, and as a result, their relationship develops into something like mentoring, almost father-son. Price often covers for Soap, and Soap, in turn, takes the initiative and grows as a fighter.
Gas (Kyle Garrick). There is a warm, caring line here. Price literally becomes a mentor for Gaza: he teaches him tactics, helps him hone his skills (for example, properly handle a sniper rifle), and encourages him. At critical moments, the captain is clearly worried about the guy and is ready to cover him with fire.
Ghost (Simon Riley). With Ghost, Price develops a relationship of mutual respect and trust in combat skills. It's more of a partnership of equals: Price appreciates Ghost's stealth, analytical mind, and composure, while Ghost recognizes the captain's authority and strategic thinking. They often work together in difficult missions.
Kate Laswell (CIA). This is a separate line – not intra-group, but important for the context. At first, Laswell is skeptical of Price's idea of assembling a group of "dubious" candidates ("to fund assets, not criminals"). But after dialogue and argumentation from the captain, she compromises: she provides a dossier and eventually supports the formation of OTG-141. A working alliance arises between them, where there are both disputes and mutual trust.
Other allies. In different missions, Price also interacts closely with other characters - for example, with the leader of the Urzikstan liberation forces Farah or with Nikolai (his contact in the FSB). These connections are rather situational, but show that Price is ready to unite with different forces for a common goal.

Early life
Price was born in 1985 and served in the British Army from the age of 16 at the age of 18. He is the youngest cadet to graduate from the Royal Military Academy as an officer. Price passed the selection of the Commando Special Forces and became an SAS fighter. The future captain proved that he was worthy of being a soldier in Her Majesty's service, in numerous undercover operations in the Middle East. Price was promoted to captain in 2011 and given the call sign "Bravo 6".
As a lieutenant, he participated in the operation to eliminate Imran Zakhaev under the command of Captain MacMillan in Pripyat. This attempt ended in failure.
In
2009, Price led a SAS raid on the prison of Russian General Roman Barkov in Urzikstan to aid the escape of Farah Karim, Khadir Karim and several other prisoners. Thanks to Price, Farah and Khadir were able to organize an Urzikstan militia to fight the Barkov regime in the country.
On October 24, 2019, Price received information from CIA officer Kate Laswell about the failed operation to seize Russian chlorine gas. John agreed to help in view of the danger of gas spraying in Europe.

The next day, October 25, 2019, there was a terrorist attack by the Al-Qatala group in Piccadilly Circus in London. The Metropolitan Police Service was fighting terrorists when Bravo Squad, led by Captain Price, came to the rescue. John saved Sergeant Kyle Garrick with a well-aimed shot at the terrorist and helped him clear the store building. On the second tier, the group came across hostages, one of them was sitting in a vest with explosives on a timer. The latter showed a few seconds before the explosion, so Price threw the poor guy down, despite his pleas for salvation, and thereby secured the rest of the hostages and his squad.

Clearing the Terrorists
' Lair Garrick provided Price with important information about al-Qatala cells in London. Two days later, an SAS squad led by Price and Kyle set out to clean up a terrorist-infested house in Camden Town, London. Methodically and carefully clearing the enemy from one floor after another, the counter-terrorist group went to the fifth floor, where there was a woman begging not to shoot her. She did not react to the order not to move and backed away, so she was quickly eliminated. It turned out that its target was a detonator.

Garrick:... She reached for the detonator.
Price: It's good that we shot it.
Garrick: So we weren't mistaken, sir?
Price: Well, then. Now we know where the Wolf is.
The purpose of the task was to find out the whereabouts of the leader of Al-Qatal, Omar Sulaman, nicknamed "Wolf". A laptop in the attic of the building contained all the information about this: Wolf was hiding in the Ramaz hospital.
Now it was up to the Marine squad and Alex. They successfully coped with the task of storming the Ramaz hospital and capturing the Wolf and sent the villain to the US Embassy in Urzykstan.
Battle at the Wolf's
embassy is interrogated by Alex, Farah, and Khadir. The embassy building was surrounded by a crowd of al-Qatala supporters, led by Jamal Rahar, nicknamed the Butcher. Captain Price and Kyle Garrick fly by helicopter to the embassy to evacuate this group, but the al-Catalans broke into the embassy compound and shot down the helicopter with an RPG, so the evacuation is canceled, and Price orders Alex to take Wolf to a shelter in the basement of the building.

Price and Garrick descend into the basement from the roof. On the way, they come across a scene of the execution of civilians arranged by the Butcher. Their path is blocked by Al-Qatala fighters who broke into the building. Number Two gets rid of them not without difficulty and continues to move down. Price opens the door to the basement, but a terrorist jumps out and attacks the captain. John masterfully parries the attack and kills the enemy with the same nail puller with which he opened the door. The two go down, clear the corridor and reach the door with allies. After a short conversation, Price puts Garrick behind the cells and asks him to take the ambassador with the key card to the door, while he and the group head to this door from the other side. The ambassador's assistant opened the door and gave the squad the key card of the ambassador himself.
The squad goes to the ambassador's residence, where there is just a storage room. Wolf is locked in it while the squad is waiting for evacuation. Al-Qatala's attack is not long in coming, so Price calls for air support and orders defensive positions. The terrorists shoot at the lanterns and begin an offensive in the dark. The squad has to fight back with flares. Soon, a UAV summoned by Price with Hellfire missiles arrives, and, guided by Garrick, helps the defense. But Al-Qatala fighters manage to break through to the residence and capture it. The squad returns to her, but it is too late: the Wolf has already been freed by breaking through the wall.
Alex, Farah, and Khadir head to the "Highway of Death" to ambush Wolf, but Khadir uses captured Russian chlorine gas and defects to Al-Qatala's side.

To Captain John Price. Respect and trust at the level of "senior mentor". Price is the one who keeps the squad in line, and Ghost strictly follows his orders, without questioning his authority. In their interaction, there is a mutual recognition of professionalism: Price appreciates Guest's composure, and he appreciates Price's experience and determination.
To Soap (John "Soap" McTavish). A warm, almost fraternal attitude, although outwardly Ghost almost does not show it. He covers Soap in battle, and in the dialogues there is concern in a restrained form: not "you are dear to me", but "stay closer, it's dangerous here". Soap is a reliable partner for him, who can be trusted with the rear.
To Guzz (Kyle "Gas" Garrick). Attitude as a promising fighter who needs to be "tempered". Ghost is strict, but not cruel: he gives Gazz tasks where he must make quick decisions, and corrects him without humiliation. This is the "teacher-practitioner" style: less words, more action.
To the rest of the fighters of OTG-141. He keeps his distance, but in battle he is as reliable as possible: if Ghost is nearby, it means that the plan will be fulfilled, and his comrades will be covered. He is not one to joke and get closer, but his devotion to the team is manifested in actions: to pull out the wounded under fire, to take the most dangerous position, not to abandon during the retreat.

relationship with each of Rodolfo "Rudy" Parra's team
. This is his right hand man and deputy at Los Vaqueros. They are connected by many years of common service and mutual trust. Rudy often acts as the tactical "glue" of the team: he is calm under fire and devoted to Alejandro's vision. There are bright moments of their interaction in the plot - for example, when Alejandro rescues Rudy from a cartel ambush. Fans especially appreciate this couple for the "ride or die" mentality.
Kate Laswell. After Valeria's betrayal, Alejandro got in touch with Laswell. A high level of mutual trust was established between them, so much so that they switched to communicating by name. Laswell coordinates their joint operations (such as the capture of Ghassan Ziyani) and later helps rescue Alejandro from the prison where he was placed by the Shadow Company.
John "Soap" McTavish. They have a rather lively and informal interaction. Soap brings energy to the team, and Alejandro appreciates that. In missions, they act in unison: together they clear objects, cover each other. That being said, Alejandro sometimes finds Soap's chaotic style funny.
Simon "Ghost" Riley. Relationships are also built on mutual respect and trust in battle. Ghost and Alejandro effectively complement each other in complex operations - for example, during the assault on the base or during the evacuation. There are moments in the plot where they coordinate actions, relying on each other's experience.
Jonathon Price - The relationship is built on the mutual respect of the two commanders. Price does not impose his will on Alejandro, but rather cooperates with him as an equal: he recognizes his authority in the Mexican environment and knowledge of local realities, and Alejandro appreciates Price's experience and strategic thinking. Together, they combine the resources of Los Vaqueros and OTG-141 for a common goal, and this synergy becomes the key to success in campaigns

In July 2022, Ghost was sent to carry out a strike mission in Al Mazrah on the orders of both Laswell and General Shepard to establish visual contact with General Ghorbrani, commander of the Quds Force, Iranian Special Forces, with the aim of eliminating him as a potential threat while the latter was present to make a deal with the Russian military. Ghost confirmed the general's presence, and Phillip Graves, commander and CEO of the Shadow Company, was given the green light to launch a ballistic cruise missile, which completely destroyed the site of the arms deal, killing everyone, including Ghorbrani, which Ghost later confirmed.

A few months after Ghorbrani's death, Maj. Ghassan Ziyani, Ghorbrani's deputy in command, vowed revenge on the U.S. and reportedly secretly held events at al-Mazrah. Ghost, along with Soap and the Marine Special Operations Unit, were sent to capture or kill Ghassan. After fighting resistance from al-Qatal, who were allegedly there to protect Hasan, they were actually protecting the cargo, which turned out to be an American-made ballistic cruise missile. Shepard ordered Ghost and the team to destroy the missile before evacuating from Al Mazrah.

Ghost and Soap were later sent to Las Almas to meet with Mexican Special Forces Colonel Alejandro Vargas and Staff Sergeant Rodolfo Parra to hunt down Ghassan, who they believed was being harbored and protected by the Las Almas cartel with corrupt elements of the Mexican army under the control of El Sin Nombre, the leader of the Las Almas cartel.

After successfully capturing Ghassan with the help of Graves and the support of AC-130, they took Ghassan to the desert to interrogate him about the location of the missiles. Ghassan proved difficult to deal with and was ordered to release him as his detention was illegal.

A few days later, Ghost, along with Soap, Alejandro, and Graves, were monitoring a mansion belonging to one of El Sin Nombre's lieutenants, Diego Salgado. After much discussion about how to get to the cartel leader, Soap volunteered for a risky infiltration mission with Alejandro disguised as one of the bodyguards, Ghost providing surveillance for the sniper, and Graves ready to capture him. After they managed to capture the cartel leader, who turned out to be Valeria Garza, a former employee of Alejandro's unit, they interrogated her about the whereabouts of Ghassan and the missiles, and she offered information in exchange for a deal to secure her release and that her activities in the cartel were not disrupted.

During the interrogation of Valeria Ghost, along with the 141st, Los Vaqueros and the Shadow Company participated in a raid on an oil rig located in the Gulf of Mexico, where they discovered and destroyed a second missile before it had a chance to be launched.

When the team returned, they learned that Graves, with Shepard's support, had taken over the Los Vaqueros base and attacked them when Alejandro was captured, forcing Ghost and Soap to flee into town and fend off the Shadows hunting them, before regrouping at Alejandro's secret hideout, where they met up with Rodolfo and devised a plan to infiltrate the abandoned prison. which was used by the Shadow Company as a personal secret prison to free Alejandro and the Los Vaqueros fighters who were held captive before escaping with the help of Price and Gus.

Laswell later learns that Shepard and Graves tried to cover up a personal operation when the Shadow Company lost 3 missiles they were transporting to their allies fighting Russia, a company of Russian mercenaries who later handed them over to Ghassan so he could get revenge on the U.S.

Ghost was present when OTG-141 and Los Vaqueros formed Ghost's team. He then briefly removed his mask before donning his ghost mask along with everyone else before heading off to reclaim Los Vaqueros' headquarters, where they killed Graves and the Shadows. They then interrogated Valeria again, and she revealed that Ghassan and the last rocket were in Chicago.

As OTG-141 with a detachment of Marine Rangers approached Ghassan, with the latter under al-Qatala protection, Ghost provided observation from another building. The team then rushed to take control after Ghassan launched a missile that was heading towards Washington, D.C., and Soap managed to defuse it with Laswell's help. He then saves Soap from death by shooting Hasan before the latter has a chance to throw him out of the window.

Ghost, along with Price, Gus, Soap, and Laswell, were at a bar discussing the events that followed their mission to Chicago. Laswell then hands them a photograph of a man whom Price recognizes as Vladimir Makarov.

On November 10, 2023, when OTG-141 reached its designated departure point for an unknown mission, Laswell radioed Price, informing him that Makarov had escaped. This prompted Price to order the pilot to turn around and return the squad back to base.

On the same day, Ghost, along with other members of the squad, were sent to the nuclear power plant in Urzikstan after Connie's soldiers were seen approaching the plant. Price and Ghost inspected the station, while Soap and Gaz were tasked with securing the perimeter. There, the squad engaged Connie's forces and found out that they were trying to transport containers of Sarin gas - the remnants of Barkov's program. Despite the squad's best efforts, the mercenaries were still able to escape with the gas, and Price nearly lost his life trying to stop them from doing so.

Thanks to the beacons that were installed on the Farah missile containers, Laswell was able to track them to an abandoned bunker complex in Urzystan. This prompted OTG-141 to attack the complex in the hope of preventing the launch of missiles. The squad then split up, with Ghost, along with Soap and Gas, combing and clearing the complex, while Price teaming up with Farah to clean up another part of the complex. While Laswell went to the Arkle military base in Verdansk to meet with a liaison who could help the 141st in their search for Makarov. Price and Farah were able to stop the launch of one of the missiles, but Ghost, Soap, and Gaz were unable to stop the two remaining missiles that took off and were heading for the Arklov military base. Because of this, Price contacted Laswell.

After meeting with Shepard, a temporary truce was negotiated between TASK Force 141 and the Shadow Company, as they worked together to find and kill Makarov, though Ghost was angry to see that Graves had survived their fight in Las Almas. Shepard then gave Laswell information about Makarov's financier, Milena Romanova, who was on a remote island guarded by large security forces. Ghost and Soap then infiltrated the island to interrogate Milena and learn about Makarov's next move. Ghost provided surveillance while Soap killed the guards, eventually they were able to interrogate Milena, which allowed Laswell to gain access to a laptop that contained information about Romanova's bank accounts and various transactions that took place on them.

The information gathered during Romanova's interrogation led OTG-141 to become aware of Connie's base in St. Petersburg, prompting them to attack her. After the attack, the squad captured Andrei Nolan, Makarov's right-hand man, from whom they learned that Makarov was transporting someone to an abandoned prison complex in Siberia, prompting them to intercept this convoy before it reached its destination. Soap, Price, and Gaz positioned themselves underwater while Ghost and Farah provided surveillance. When the convoy reached the ambush position, the squad carried out its plan and began to swim to the car to get the prisoner out. Eventually, Soap, Price, and Gaz captured the prisoner and brought him to the surface, where they figured out that the person Makarov was transporting was none other than General Shepard, which infuriated Price, then Gaz reminded him that they were in an unprotected area and suggested that they move to a safer location.

Shepard then told the squad that he had information about Makarov and that they would get it as soon as they got him out of here. Price reluctantly agreed, and the squad then fought its way through Connie's reinforcements. Eventually, they reached the evacuation zone and boarded the helicopter. The squad then took General Shepard to a remote location in Siberia, where they told him to report and tell Congress the whole truth, to which Shepard reluctantly agreed. Then the task force took him on board a helicopter and left Siberia.

After his return, Shepard revealed that Makarov wanted to blow up the dam in Verdansk to flood the city and kill its inhabitants, and then blame it on Faro and the West. Ghost and Soap were sent there to defuse the bombs and prevent a disaster. Through careful maneuvering, Ghost and Soap were able to defuse all explosive devices in the vicinity and defuse them, averting disaster.

Laswell received information from MI6 that Makarov and Connie were in London, and she also learned that they were dating a hacker. Soap and Gaz were deployed on the ground, where they mingled with the crowd to hunt down the hacker, while Ghost provided assistance with security cameras. Soap overheard the conversation and found out the location of the buyer. Task Force 141 and the SFO then gathered in an abandoned tunnel on Emslie Street, then the team broke through and started clearing the tunnel, they managed to kill the buyer and take possession of the flash drive.
Despite their efforts, the virus was loaded into the train system, giving Connie the ability to operate the train, and Task Force 141 also learned that Makarov was planning to destroy the Channel Tunnel. Task Force 141, together with the SFO, approached the tunnel under the English Channel. They then split up, with Gaz, Ghost, the leader of the SFO, and half of his men taking one side, and Price, Soap, along with the rest of the SFO, taking the other. The tunnel is passed by trains when Connie takes over the net. After intense firefights with Connie, Price and Soap discovered a bomb guarded by Connie's contractors. While Soap was working to defuse the bomb, they were attacked by Connie's other contractors, with Price and SFO providing cover for Soap. Price then asked Gaza and Ghost to back them up.
