With the arrival of Infinity Ward v2.0, aka Respawn Entertainment, many have been wondering what will happen to Infinity Ward V1. Gazing into his crystal ball today is Janco Partners’ Mike Hickey:
“Continued defections from Infinity Ward have created meaningful uncertainty around the future of their Call of Duty: Modern Warfare franchise.”
“We expect Infinity Ward studio will be essentially closed after their next map pack release, with development work on Modern Warfare 3 spread between two studios not historically tied to the franchise.”
In other Infinity-Gate news, CEO and president of Activision Publishing Mike Griffith resigned from both of his roles on April 23rd.
