* GreaterScopeVillain: Fontaine, one of the leaders of Black List, plays an antagonistic role in both campaigns. She's the direct BigBad of ''Operation Catalyst'' when you're playing as Global Risk, but it's made clear in ''Operation Spectre'' that she's not to be trusted even though you're now playing a character on the side of Black List.

As in the original ''Crossfire'', the game centers around an ongoing conflict between rival PMC companies Global Risk and Black List. In the single-player campaign, ''Operation Catalyst'' has the player take the role of Global Risk soldier Captain Hall, while ''Operation Spectre'' has the player take the role of Luis Torres, a teen thief who joins Black List after being targeted for assassination by Global Risk.
