10 Video Game Mysteries Answered In CUT CONTENT

10. What Happened To Captain Price? - Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 marked the end of the original Modern Warfare franchise before it was rebooted in 2019.

The original trilogy concluded on an ambiguous note after Captain Price kills villain Makarov and then defiantly lights a cigar as the screen fades to black. Price's fate was never confirmed one way or another, with some speculating that he died from his wounds, while others contended that he lived to fight another day.

However, earlier this year modders yoyo1love and Vlad Loktionov discovered a cut post-credits scene which would've revealed what became of Price. 

As he continues to watch Makarov's corpse swing in the wind, a shadowy individual appears in the background, watches the scene for a moment and then walks off.

Price then slumps over, his cigar dropping to the floor, before the game cuts to a picture of Price's fallen Operation Kingfish squad. 

While still somewhat ambiguous, the implication seemed far more overt here that Price died, yet perhaps because Activision wanted to keep the door open for him to return, it was ultimately excised.
