Captain Price

Captain John Price is a character from the Call of Duty series of video games published by Activision. First appearing in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007) as Captain of the 22nd SAS Regiment, he later joins the international special operations unit Task Force 141. He has appeared in every game in both the original Modern Warfare sub-series and its reboot series, the latter beginning in 2019 with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. In the original trilogy, he is voiced by Billy Murray; in the reboot series, he is voiced by Barry Sloane. Captain Price is based on another character of the same name that appeared in the original Call of Duty (2003), set in World War II. When designing the character for Call of Duty 4, the development team overhauled the original design from the 2003 game, incorporating elements such as a thousand-yard stare, a weathered boonie hat, and a receding hairline. Price is widely considered to be the most iconic character in the Call of Duty series and is considered by some as one of the most iconic video game characters of all time. Critics have praised his role in the series, and the character has ranked in reader polls for the best video game characters of all time.
