>The 50-second video appears to take place shortly following the ending set piece, as it shows a mysterious, partially obscured man in a suit observing the site of Makarov’s hanging. As the shadowy figure turns around and leaves, Price’s vision becomes blurry, and he drops both his cigar and head, remaining motionless. The scene then fades to black, before transitioning to a photo of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s Operation Kingfish team.
>The scene came as a surprise to many Call of Duty fans, as few have ever interpreted the game’s ending as Price being on his deathbed. On the contrary, the cheeky act of lighting a cigar after the final fight suggested that his wounds weren’t so severe as to be life-threatening. The fact that the Operation Kingfish photo is shown immediately afterward appears to underline Price’s death, as all the other team members depicted in the image are also dead by that point in the story.

I wonder if this was Ghost? After MW2 came out, the community manager was asked about him, and he said, “Ghost wasn’t exactly dead, but we’ll see what that means.”

Wasn’t audio of that walk released years ago? I vaguely remember something hinted at this before, but nice to see a scene
