Black Ops Cold War will reportedly be \u201cmost supported Call of Duty title\u201d despite Vanguard release ActivisionAlthough Black Ops Cold War is reaching the end of its yearly cycle, with Vanguard reportedly on the way as 2021\u2019s annual Call of Duty release, support for Treyarch\u2019s latest game is expected to continue long after the next title hits store shelves. For the past 18 years, Activision has released brand new CoD titles on an annual basis. Typically, when the new game is made available, the previous entry fades into the background. Developers often end support for the earlier release and jump ship to work on the next game 2-3 years out. However, this trend for the blockbuster franchise might be coming to an end. With Infinity Ward\u2019s 2019 release, we saw Modern Warfare receive new content after Treyarch\u2019s Black Ops Cold War launched in 2020. Now, it appears Cold War is set to receive more love than any CoD in franchise history. With new updates reportedly in the pipeline despite Vanguard\u2019s release, Treyarch\u2019s title could be getting new content well into 2022. I was told recently that Black Ops Cold War will likely be the most supported Call of Duty title after its \u201ccycle\u201d has ended as its post-launch revenue is exceeding expectations. \u2014 Tom Henderson (@_Tom_Henderson_) July 5, 2021 While nothing is yet official, new entries in the CoD series predominantly launch in November. If we assume the same for Vanguard, Cold War essentially has four months remaining in the spotlight. In previous years, Cold War would be left in its final state with Vanguard completely taking over. Though this year, things might work differently: it\u2019s shaping up so that Cold War \u201cwill likely be the most supported CoD title after its \u2018cycle\u2019 has ended,\u201d prominent leaker Tom Henderson revealed. Due to \u201cpost-launch revenue exceeding expectations,\u201d it appears Activision wants to keep the Cold War community engaged longer than usual. This means we could be seeing all-new Cold War content well after Vanguard\u2019s release. From new maps and playlists to guns and more, it appears nothing is off the table. Perhaps there\u2019s even a chance that new CoD seasons integrate across the board. When Season One of Vanguard launches, maybe it does so in sync with Warzone, Cold War, and even CoD Mobile. Only time will tell just how expansive this post-launch support will continue to be. Regardless of what Treyarch has planned, if leaks hold true, Cold War could be sticking around longer than any CoD release prior. This trend could become the norm moving forward if post-launch success continues on the same trajectory with Vanguard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
