Shadow Company is an enemy faction encountered at the end of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 campaign.
campaign
Shadow Company first appears in Loose Ends, in the Caucasus mountains on the border
between Russia and Georgia. There they protect the landing zone that Roach and Ghost must reach after downloading secret files about Makarov. They are only briefly on the good side, as their leader, General Shepherd, betrays Roach and Ghost and kills them both. Some soldiers help Shepherd dispose of the bodies by pouring gasoline on them and lighting them with Shepherd’s cigar.
They next appear in Enemy of My Enemy in an airplane graveyard in Afghanistan, where they fight Makarov’s Inner Circle. They try to kill Soap and Price but fail. The end of this fight is not shown.
Finally, Shadow Company appears in Old Times and Final Stages when Soap and Price Hotel infiltrate Site Bravo, the Company’s operations center, to end Shepherd’s life. At first they are unaware of Price and Soap’s presence, but when many of their men disappear and a door is forced open, they go on high alert.
Shadow Company is unable to stop their two adversaries and Shepherd attempts to escape in a Zodiac. Price shoots down Shepherd’s helicopter, but he and Soap fall down a waterfall. After a lengthy skirmish between Price and Shepherd, Soap intervenes and throws a knife into Shepherd’s eye, killing him. What happened to the Shadow Company afterward is not known.
Shepherd shows no human feelings for his soldiers and considers them all expendable, best seen in Old Town, where he directs an artillery strike at his position to kill Price and Soap.
