Activision reaffirms plans for new \u201cpremium\u201d CoD game launching in 2023 ActivisionActivision has doubled down and reaffirmed that a new \u201cfull annual premium release\u201d is coming to the Call of Duty franchise in fall 2023. Conflicting reports shroud Call of Duty\u2019s future in doubt. During a Q2 earnings meeting in August 2022, Activision implied the existence of a new CoD title for 2023 by stating, \u201cdevelopment of new premium content planned for 2023 and beyond.\u201d CoD insider CharlieINTEL clarified premium content has equated to new titles in the past. However, it could also mean a smaller bundle of content released as DLC for Modern Warfare 2. Questions arose about who would create the next series entry. Infinity Ward developed Modern Warfare 2, and we know Treyarch is taking the helm for CoD 2024. In October 2022, CoD leaker RalphsValve claimed Sledgehammer Games is developing Advanced Warfare 2. CharlieINTEL shut down rumors of an Advanced Warfare sequel but couldn\u2019t verify Sledgehammer\u2019s next project. Now, Activision has reaffirmed plans for a new premium release of sorts in 2023. Activision reiterates 2023 CoD plans On February 6, Activision stated, \u201cwith 2023 plans including even more engaging live services across platforms and the next full annual premium release in the blockbuster series.\u201d CharlieINTEL mentioned a report by Bloomberg\u2019s Jason Schreier, stating, \u201cthis fall\u2019s title would be an expansion to Modern Warfare 2 from Sledgehammer Games.\u201d Schrier doubled down on his initial findings and said 2023\u2019s project is \u201ca continuation of MW2.\u201d For 17 straight years, Activision released a new CoD title annually, cycling through Infinity Ward, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer. Modern Warfare 2 could be the first title in series history to receive a two-year life cycle. In October 2022, Cod Leaker TheGhostofHope leaked an expansion coming to Modern Warfare 2 in 2023; a paid \u201cgreatest hits map pack\u201d featuring classic maps from Infinity Ward, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer\u2019s catalog, celebrating the franchise\u2019s 20th anniversary. Longtime CoD fans would relish the opportunity to play a remastered version of London Docks, Nuketown, Firing Range, and Fringe on Modern Warfare 2. However, all rumors must be taken with a pinch of salt, and we will provide an update when Activision sheds more light on CoD\u2019s future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
