Activision je potvrdio novi CoD za ovu godinu (what a surprise), ali ono što je interesantno je da bi se nakon 3 godine advanced movementa napokon mogli vratiti boots on the ground gameplayu.
I još:
“In 2017, Activision will take Call of Duty back to its roots, and traditional combat will once again take center stage. This is what our dedicated community of Call of Duty players and Sledgehammer Games, developing this year’s title, are the most excited about.”
I developer, Sledgehammer Games, je odlučio malo teasati na Twitteru:
The good news is is that I am excited to say that in 2017 we think we have this balance in perfect harmony, with a game that our teams are very passionate about with a lot of great innovations, but that also has the traditional combat that we know our fans are going to love.
The game is being made by Sledgehammer. They are a proven team, passionate about this title. We green lit it over 2 years ago now, and they’ve been hard at work ever since, and we can’t wait to unveil it to the world soon.
Without discussing too much about what we’ve got in our Call of Duty pipeline, I can also say that fans are going to love those games as well. We’ve never been more excited — neither creatively nor commercially — our 3 year Call of Duty slate.

Bilo je i prije rumora, a često se spominjao Vijetnam kao novi setting.
