Call of Duty: Modern Warfare publisher Activision has repeatedly stated that Infinity Ward is doing fine since heads Vince Zampella and Jason West were ousted from the company early last year. A report on the LA Times' Company Town blog, however, tells a different story -- according to the piece, both Sledgehammer Games and Raven Software have been tasked with helping develop the next, still unannounced Modern Warfare title, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.
"People familiar with the situation" claim that Sledgehammer is working with the remaining staff at Infinity Ward on developing the game's single-player campaign, while Singularity developer Raven Software is in charge of bringing up the multiplayer side of things. The sources also contend that, like past Call of Duty titles, MW3 is expected to ship this November. Additionally, Sledgehammer is said to have halted production on its own spinoff Call of Duty title in order to help IW out.
Update: Activision issued a comment in response to the LAT piece, stating, "There's been much specultion recently. We look forward to releasing details for the next Call of Duty in the near future."
MW3 will ship in November? That's far...
ReplyDeleteHonestly I think they are banging out these games like there is now tomorrow and the are milking it too far. The changes in the CoD series is not enough! But great new blog, good luck!
ReplyDeleteNice blog dude :)
ReplyDeleteThe COD series seems to be done. A lot of people are banking on BF3 taking the throne.
ReplyDeleteAs bob said , im planning on buying bf3 myself , seems like a lot better bang for the buck and in the long run since most if not all battle field games had great community
ReplyDeleteThey've over used the Call of duty series...
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Activision can kill Call of Duty.
ReplyDeleteSoon It will be Call of Duty 7 World War 2 Hitler's hidden dogs.
ReplyDeleteAbout time. Hopefully it's as good as the other two. MW2 still has to be the best game out.
ReplyDeletecs > cod!
ReplyDeleteCoD2 ftw
ReplyDeletemw2 fan boys will always be here
ReplyDeleteDamn I remember playing insane amounts of MW2. fun as all hell game.
ReplyDeleteAs someone said it, CoD has really been used too much. Imo they should let go and stop remaking war games a hundred times!
