CoD 2023 insider reveals new developer details and rules out free-to-play ActivisionActivision has confirmed Call of Duty is getting a new game in 2023, but an insider has hinted that the devil could well be in the detail. The project was confirmed to be in existence on November 7, with Activisions latest financial release referencing a premium CoD title coming in the next 12 months. It said: \u201cActivision is looking forward to building on its current momentum in 2023,\u201d referencing the fact MW2 become the leading entertainment release for sales in 2022. It topped $800 million in revenue after only three days on the market, making it the fastest-selling title they have ever launched. The financial statement continued\u2026 \u201cWith plans for next year including the most robust Call of Duty live operations to date, the next full premium release in the blockbuster annual series, and even more engaging free-to-play experiences across platforms.\u201d This comes contrary to speculation that there would not be a Call of Duty mainline game in the pipeline. CoD 2023 details revealed by insider Charlie Intel, a leading Call of Duty news source and Dexerto sister site, posted about Activision\u2019s upcoming projects on Twitter. In the replies, Bloomberg\u2019s Jason Schreier threw a spanner in the works, suggesting that all was not what it seemed. They said: \u201cIt\u2019s a continuation of Modern Warfare II. \u201cIt\u2019s called a full premium release because they\u2019re probably going to market and sell it as a $70 game with new single- and multiplayer content. But it\u2019s more MWII.\u201d Journalist Cade Onder probed Schreier about the project, asking if it will be something along the lines of a \u2018Game of the Year\u2019 edition. He replied: \u201cNo, it\u2019s like an expansion but big enough that they can sell it for full price.\u201d In another post, the reporter said Sledgehammer Games will be the developer of the premium expansion, ending on \u201cbut it\u2019s more Modern Warfare 2.\u201d The unlikely twist there, of course, is that the Modern Warfare series has traditionally just been developed by Infinity Ward. It is also unclear as to whether there will be a name change, to reflect that, but just with similar gameplay. The studio did, however, work on Vanguard, World War II, and Advanced Warfare. While references made toward the next game in a blockbuster series could be perceived as more of the same from Activision \u2013 and a new game possibly coming \u2013 this inside information certainly muddies the water for now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
