BothTreyarch Studios and Raven Softwarefollowed up this confirmation today on social media. The duo took to Twitter to inform fans that they were working together on the nextCall of Dutytitle and that they were excited to share more information with everyone. Their tweets don’t say much else, but fans may get a major update on their project tomorrow throughWarzone.
During the Q2 call, Activision heavily implied that it would revealCall of Duty 2020throughCall of Duty: Warzone. Activision president Robert Kostich said thatWarzonehas caused the company to rethink how, when, and even where the company reveals its upcoming titles. He went on to say that the reveal Activision has planned will be very different and engaging.
Warzone’s Season 5 launches in only a few hours. The update plans to change up its Verdansk map in a few drastic ways, and lately, players have been finding all sorts of interesting things across the map, such as bunkers with nukes. The map changes are supposed to tieWarzoneinto the nextCall of Dutytitle, so more information on Treyarch and Raven’s project will likely come tomorrow.
Activision also confirmed thatCall of Duty 2020would release sometime during the publisher’s fourth quarter, which takes place between October and December. Activision has never waited for this late in the year to announce the development of aCall of Dutytitle. It usually happens during May or June.
It’s almost a guarantee thatCall of Duty 2020will launch on the PS4 and Xbox One, but it’s unclear if it will release on thePlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series Xas well. It’s very likely that it will, though, since it shares the same release window. Activision would certainly want to capitalize on the hype behind the next-generation consoles to attract the most players.
Call of Duty 2020is in development.
