Call of Duty: World at War features a more mature theme than previous installments in the series. The game is also open-ended, as there are multiple ways to complete objectives. The gameplay of World at War shares features with previous iterations of the franchise. Players fight alongside AI-controlled teammates, who help during the game's missions by providing cover fire, shooting enemies, and clearing rooms for entry. | |||
Gameplay on the Wii version of the game can be controlled with a gun-like expansion controller known as the [[Wii Zapper]]. The Zapper, or Wii Remote and Nunchuk, can be used to aim at targets to simulate marksmanship. | |||
