What is similar about one of the world’s flagship first-person combat shooters and a luxury car brand such as Aston Martin? Probably not a lot at first glance, but plans between Call of Duty and Aston Martin is set to change that.
The two brands have revealed the Aston Martin Dreadnought, a bespoke SUV concept created for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. Developed by Aston Martin’s design team in collaboration with Infinity Ward, the vehicle will combine supercar-level performance and a V12 engine with a military-grade armoured exterior.
Rather than serving as a luxury joyride, the Dreadnought has been designed as a mobile fortress that can support players during combat. Its intended uses include pushing objectives, rescuing teammates under fire and travelling through contested areas while its armour plating absorbs incoming damage.
The Dreadnought is also being positioned as the most aggressive all-wheel-drive vehicle available in Modern Warfare 4. Players will be able to locate it at key points of interest when it makes its in-game debut on 23 October. Ahead of its arrival in the game, fans were given a closer look at a full-size physical interpretation of the vehicle during Fanatics Fest NYC.
The collaboration was revealed alongside confirmation that the upcoming Call of Duty movie will be set within the Modern Warfare universe. The film is scheduled to reach cinemas on 30 June 2028.
