    There are several missions available when you play a CoD Ghosts’ campaign. However, you don’t need to complete all those missions to unlock Extinction mode. All you have to do is to complete the first four missions.
    • The missions that you need to complete are namely Ghost Stories, Brave New World, No Man’s Land, and Struck Down.
    • You have to complete these missions on regular difficulty (or higher) to unlock Extinction mode.
