Call of Duty Modern Warfare II Season 5: Fan-Favorite Antagonist Finally Comes Back From the Dead!

Call of Duty Modern Warfare II has been witnessing an interesting situation for the last few months. While it hasn’t fully entertained most of the players, the ongoing title has made sure they remain hooked with certain surprises.

In case anyone missed keeping track of events, the game has brought back a few of the fan-favorite characters from the Campaign with recent seasonal updates. In Season 3, names like Valeria and Alejandro made a much-awaited return in Multiplayer and Warzone. And now, Season 5 is going to do something similar. Yes, the rumors were all true – Graves is coming!

Shadow Company and Phillip Graves to return in full form with Call of Duty Modern Warfare II & Warzone Season 5

Anyone who enjoyed the single-player story of MWII last year can’t forget Phillip Graves. He was one character who made many jaws drop with his insanity during a mission that twisted the entire plot upside down. While initially he was seen as an ally to members of Task Force 141, it didn’t take long for Shadow Company’s leader to show his true colors. It was later revealed that he was working for General Shepherd all along.

Towards the climax of Call of Duty Modern Warfare II, the makers tried to establish that Graves died inside a tank. However, the entire death scene was all but believable. This was because his body was never found by anyone. Since the last year, theories were doing the rounds on the internet regarding his comeback. Well, now they have turned out to be legitimate. The devs have officially confirmed it with a tweet.

All things considered, devs have finally fulfilled the wishes of those players who were eagerly waiting for Graves. Given the fact he’s featured in the main poster for Season 5, one can assume his Operator will be a part of the Battle Pass.
