Meanwhile, the Russian campaign stars Pvt. Miller, a US Marine fighting in Peleliu and later, Okinawa, as well as for one level, Petty Officer Locke, a machine gunner on board a US Navy PBY Catalina. For the American campaign, players go as Private C. And unlike previous World War II Call of Duty titles, this one features only two campaigns, one American, and one Russian, set in the Asia-Pacific Theater from 1942-45 and Stalingrad and Berlin in 1942 and 45, respectively.
Unlike it's predecessor, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, World at War brings the series back to World War II.
Call of Duty: World at War is the fifth entry in the Call of Duty series, developed by Treyarch and released in November 2008 for Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii.
