For your enjoyment, we've collected all Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailers in one place!
Thanks to a combination of bombastic military action and its cinematic depiction of war, the Call of Duty phenomenon continues unabated. The franchise has taken us from World War II’s war-torn Europe to the most recent conflicts in the Middle East, and now it has set its sights on the future of warfare.
Yes, we were first given a taste of futuristic armaments in Call of Duty: Black Ops II. But Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare thrusts the future of military technology to the forefront – to electrifying effect. Exo suits? Energy weapons? Holographs? It’s not science fiction. It’s advanced warfare.
And so, for your enjoyment, and to whet your appetite for the bold new direction the series is taking, we list down all Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailers.
1. Reveal trailer
War has changed. To keep up with the demands of a deadlier world, military technology has been forced to evolve.
We see our first glimpse of these new technologies in the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare reveal trailer. Drones, cloaking devices, Exo armor? These are the future of combat.
But if that isn’t enough to get you excited, how about Kevin Spacey as Jonathan Irons, the CEO of the world’s biggest private military contractor, Atlas Corporation?
Bring in a bunch of explosions, unbelievably realistic graphics, and Irons spouting off some idealistic claptrap about democracy and boundaries, and you’ve got one heck of a jaw-dropping Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailer.
2. Campaign Story Trailer
Here we get the lowdown on the story that was only hinted at in the reveal trailer.
In the first global terrorist attack in history, nuclear reactors on five continents are simultaneously destroyed. With the resulting worldwide pandemonium crippling governments and the military, only the international private military organization, Atlas, can strike back against the threat.
Atlas exceeds expectations, bringing peace back to the world. But with their success comes power. And power, as we all know, changes everything.
With a sneak peek at what’s looking like a stellar performance from Spacey as Atlas CEO Jonathan Irons, the campaign story trailer sets the stage for the events of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.
3. Gameplay Launch Trailer
The first-person shooter has come a long way. Sure, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare still offers plenty of heads to perforate with a well-placed bullet, but the game takes it all to another level with Exo suits, drone hordes, vehicles, high-flying shenanigans, window-breaking stunts, tons and tons of guns, and so much more.
And talk about those graphics. Characters are as photorealistic as they come, with Kevin Spacey’s 3D model so life-like it’s like he jumped straight out of Horrible Bosses, slapped on his most contemptuous scowl, and started strutting around like the wannabe-dictator that Jonathan Irons is.
Whether you’re a fan of the series or not, this is one Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailer worth watching.
4. Power Changes Everything Trailer
The Power Changes Everything trailer shows a little bit of everything that makes Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare so astonishing: the story focusing on Jonathan Irons’ lust for power; the single player campaign containing the series’ signature cinematic scenarios; the exciting new technologies; the multiplayer mode with its varied environments and weapons; and lots of explosions.
5. Multiplayer Reveal Trailer
As exhilarating as the single player campaigns of Call of Duty games are, we can thank its robust and accessible multiplayer for the franchise’s enduring popularity.
Ever wanted to call down a barrage of missiles on your friends? In Advanced Warfare, you can do just that at the push of a button. Also at your disposal is cloaking technology, as well as a rocket booster for those higher jumps. How times have changed!
The environments are just as thrilling, including one with a tsunami slamming thousands of pounds of seawater on a beach. Oh, the delicious mayhem.
6. Live Action Trailer – “Discover Your Power”
We know the guys behind the franchise were having fun in this Call of Duty: Advancer Warfare trailer. Starring Taylor Kitsch as a fellow soldier and the beautiful Emily Ratajkowski as a goat, this live action trailer demonstrates the kind of insane, furious action we can expect from the game. Because the future of combat is all about punching doors open with your hands, seeing through walls, surviving 100-foot drops, soaring across rooftops, driving hover bikes through narrow alleyways, Superman-style super jumps, tanks with robot legs, and yes, kissing random farm animals.
7. Companion App Trailer
Now you can wage war in the privacy of your toilet!
With the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare companion app, players can use their mobile devices to create and oversee their Clan, and edit in-game emblems. Friends can also compete against other Clans in Call of Duty Clan Wars, which rewards in-game gear and other items for every victory.
8. Advanced Arsenal Pre-Order Bonus Trailer
This is where we leave science fiction and enter the realm of science reality.
This Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailer discusses some of the futuristic military technology that is featured in the game, and get this – the developers didn’t just come up with all this stuff by themselves. The team spent over two years researching upcoming military technologies, and the result of their efforts can be found in the game. The high-tech weapon, M1 Quantum, and the awesome Exo suit both comprise the Advanced Arsenal pre-order bonus.
9. Season Pass Trailer
The season pass trailer exhibits the game’s four DLC packs – including Havoc, Ascendance, Supremacy, and Reckoning – at a discounted price.
10. Collector's Edition Trailer
The collector’s edition of any game is often considered the holy grail for serious collectors. The Advanced Warfare collector’s edition not only comes with a bevy of goodies, ranging from a season’s pass to digital content, but the box itself comes in a nice, steel case. Perfect if you want to show off just how fat your wallet is!
11. Championship Trailer
Sometimes, video games can make heroes of us, and the Call of Duty franchise has produced its fair share of legends.

Exo Zombies Havoc Trailer
Exo Zombies Infection Trailer
What’s better than peppering generic soldiers and run-of-the-mill terrorists with bullets? How about shooting running, raving, ravenous zombies in the face?
When Atlas attempts to pacify a prison riot using a bioweapon, things go to hell faster than a bullet to the brain. Because we all know the track record bioweapons have in video games.
The four trailers above unveil Call of Duty: Advanced Warfares’ Exo Zombies mode, in which players assume the roles of survivors in a zombie outbreak. Unlike the regular game, however, you’re no soldier – meaning you start the game with lame knives and handguns. Looks like you’ll have to work for that Exo suit!
To complicate matters, these aren’t your regular, boring, shambling zombies – they’re Exo zombies, meaning they’re extra tough and extra ugly. Also, ever seen a zombie wearing power armor? Well, now’s your chance to see one up close!
Blending horror with fast-paced action, Exo Zombies stars big-name celebrities John Malkovich, Rose McGowan, Jon Bernthal, and Bill Paxton as the janitor, IT specialist, security guard, and executive, respectively.
If you love splattering zombie brains, you’ll love these Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailers.

Bored with your plain old Exo suit? Why not splash a little color onto it?
The Customization Items trailer reveals a bunch of new downloadable packs that allow you to personalize your gear. Why not decorate your exo pack and helmet with a badass flame design? Or salute the nation of your birth with your country’s flag?
Speaking of flags, now you can tell which country that snotty 13-year-old who just insulted your mother comes from!
14. Call of Duty Championship Personalization Pack Trailer
A constant struggle to escape the bottom of the multiplayer food chain? Your problems have come to an end, because nothing makes you look like a winner more than the championship personalization pack!

But the best thing about these trailers is Randall Higgins as the KillCameraman. Yep, he’s the guy behind the KillCam, documenting the most majestic and picturesque moments in warfare – seeing guys getting smashed by missiles, obliterated by lasers, crushed by mountains of snow, that kind of thing.
