He's been shot, captured, abandoned, blown up, locked up, tortured, and left for dead. Price is a veteran of military operations in nearly every conflict-prone corner of the world, distinguishing himself with acts of gallantry and intrepidity. His achievements have risen to the stuff of regimental history.

Price joined the infantry at the age of 16 and has served in the British Army for 18 years. One of the youngest cadets to ever graduate the Royal Military Academy as a commissioned officer, he completed Special Service Commando selection and was 'badged' a member of the SAS, proving his worth on countless covert operations over multiple deployments in the Middle East. Promoted to Captain in 2011, callsign 'Bravo Six', Price is the officer in charge of a highly effective unit, tasked with anti–hijacking counter–terrorism, specializing in close quarter combat, sniper techniques and hostage rescue. He is unofficially missioned to capture or kill high-value targets.[4]

Blessed with uncanny instincts and an unchecked determination, Captain Price is a peerless combat-tracker, known for excelling in a fluid and volatile environment. An elite seek-and-strike expert, Price is versed in a wide range of fieldcraft and tactical capability. From airborne shock-trooper to long-range reconnaissance operator, Captain Price is a covert, jungle, desert and urban operator, sniper and saboteur. With a knack for developing and maintaining links to foreign fighters across the globe by earning goodwill through trust, Captain Price works closely with Western Intelligence agencies assigned to aggressively pursue HVTs. His counter-terrorism squadron is on call to mobilize anywhere in Europe with immediate readiness.[4]

Price believes that the duty of every soldier is to fight for the greater good— "The rules of engagement don't change, but their justification does." Price always fights for what's right but he knows what's right isn't always what you're fighting for. He's often said, "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter." Sometimes unpredictable and unrestrained, John Price has a golden rule all his own: "We get dirty, and the world stays clean."[4]

Although an officer, Captain Price has always preferred to keep the company of an enlisted warfighter. John often tells new recruits: "All it takes to change the course of history... is the will of a single man or woman." Not above a rogue move or an unholy alliance in the name of getting the job done, John has a deep but often strained relationship with the system.[4]

Much like Sergeant Garrick, Price seems to hate being tied down by rules or procedures, and sometimes takes drastic actions on his own, often against orders. After the attack on the gas lab, Russia officially disowned Roman Barkov, his forces, and his actions. Sometime after, Price asked General Shepherd for personal files on several Special Forces individuals. Laswell met Price to discuss the files, with Price wanting to create a task force to tie up loose ends. Originally, Laswell refused, which prompted Price to threaten walking out. Laswell changes her mind, and informs Price that Victor Zakhaev, the son of Imran Zakhaev, is gaining power; stopping Zakhaev will be one of the first missions for the task force. Price officially recruits Garrick (now known as Gaz), Johnny "Soap" MacTavish, and Simon Riley, and names the team Task Force 141.

Not long after Price assembled Task Force 141, Laswell informed both Nikolai and Price that a new individual had taken control over Al-Qatala and gained new resources which heavily fortified the Al-Qatala army and led to them occupying the city of Verdansk. Sergeant Kamarov of the FSB, another contact of Price's, then informed that the West and Russia will cooperate to take down this new threat. Price, Nikolai, Laswell and Kamarov gathered their operatives and began their attempt to stop Al-Qatala again. In March 2020, when Al-Qatala released toxic gas within Verdansk, Task Force 141 operator Simon "Ghost" Riley discovered a chaotic situation where the operators of Armistice had turned against themselves and began targeting each other. He soon requested Price to send him reinforcements he could trust.

Riley managed to escape the city and was deployed to a classified location where Price informed him that the attack on Verdansk was Zakhaev's plan, with intent to disband Armistice. Price sent Alex, who remained alive after the operation at Barkov's gas factory, to assist Riley.

As the situation in Verdansk escalates with the discovery of bunkers used to store Al-Qatala weapons, Price conducts an operation in the city alongside Task Force 141 operator Gaz, intent on preventing the situation from becoming any more chaotic. He also eventually recruits Farah and NIkolai to join the operation in Verdansk, and enlists the help of Sgt. Griggs in finding and apprehending Victor Zakhaev.

In December 2020, after learning of Victor's movement, Price assembles a team and proceeds to a nuclear bunker where he personally stops Victor from launching a missile and nuking Verdansk. Afterwards, he responses to a radio call from Soap, who requests assistance "half a few clicks off of Verdansk's coast". After finding out the truth, Price confronted General Shepherd about the remaining missiles and the betrayal from Shadow Company's forces. The two then both go into a brief argument. Shepherd revealed his true nature, telling Price that Graves is "a dog with a bone" and suggest Price to not go after him. Price then threatened the General and ended the call.

Price then gathered all other members of Task Force 141 and Los Vaqueros together, where he announced his plan to take back the Fuerzas Especiales Headquarters, secure Valeria and kill Commander Graves. Price then states that this is a fight against their own, and, they are not 141 or Los Vaqueros on this, re-affirming that they are a team: Ghost Team. Price was part of Team 1, alongside with Gaz, Alejandro and a Los Vaqueros pilot. They infilled in from the tunnel while Team 2, consisting of Ghost, Soap, Rodolfo and other Los Vaqueros operators waited outside the gate until Price fired on the entry gate. Team 1 then managed to maneuver through the tunnel and secured a helicopter, Price alongside with the Los Vaqueros pilot boarded the helicopter and opened fire on the entry gate, allowing Team 2 to move in. Price continued to provide fire support in the helicopter until he was shot down by Shadow Company contractors, which prompted Ghost to come and help him. Luckily, both Price and the pilot survived.
