Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s spot in the limelight may soon be ending. Activision recently confirmed Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War and that it would get a full reveal on August 26th. Typically, the Call of Duty series has been juggled between three Activision studios, churning out one annualised sequel on a three-year development cycle. World War II and Advanced Warfare team, Sledgehammer Games, were originally due to release their next Call of Duty title this year but Treyarch have now taken the reins of development after reports of internal struggles of Sledgehammer’s game. Since 2010, they have continued to work on the Black Ops branch of the Call of Duty franchise, and this means that a new Black Ops game is coming just two years after the last, instead of the expected three.
The full reveal next week will likely give us a release date, details about the current gen and next gen versions of Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War, whether there will be a free upgrade path, cross play, and of course story and multiplayer details. Call of Duty games release in October or November so it would be likely to see Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War be on the PS5 and Xbox Series X day one.
