Activision Activision president Rob Kostich revealed that an active team of 3,000 devs has Call of Duty games planned out through 2027.
Fans originally had no idea what to expect from Call of Duty in 2023. Rumors ranged from Modern Warfare 2 having a two-year life cycle to a paid expansion with classic maps to celebrate the franchise’s 20th anniversary.
In the end, Activision announced a “full annual premium release,” which ended up becoming Modern Warfare 3. Sledgehammer Games’ latest title hits shelves in just a few weeks, but it’s never too early to start looking ahead.
And fans are already getting excited about what could possibly be in store, as a leak suggested that CoD 2025 will remaster Black Ops 2 maps, similar to how MW3 restored classic MW2 (2009) environments. Rumors also indicate COD 2024 will have fan-favorite studio Treyarch at the helm. With much of the franchise’s future shrouded in mystery, Activision president Rob Kostich gave fans a peak behind the curtain.
