Confirmed: Infinity Ward to design next Call of Duty game (& Warzone)
In a press release talking about the fourth-quarter and 2021 financial results, Activision has revealed quite a bit of information on the future of the Call of Duty franchise and other (upcoming) games in their library. “Development on this year’s premium and Warzone experiences is being led by Activision’s renowned Infinity Ward studio. The team is working on the most ambitious plan in franchise history, with industry-leading innovation and a broadly appealing franchise setting.”
It’s not all good news for Activision however, as they report lower numbers for Vanguard in comparison to last year. Call of Duty: Mobile did perform very well, however. “Call of Duty net bookings on console and PC declined year-over-year in the fourth quarter, reflecting lower premium sales for Call of Duty: Vanguard versus the year ago title and lower engagement in Call of Duty: Warzone.”
With Infinity Ward taking up the reigns again, Activision hopes Call of Duty can return to the high sales it had previously. Activision also confirmed that they have ongoing plans for other games in the Call of Duty universe. “Studio expansion has continued to add development resources worldwide as plans continue for ongoing live operations and new, unannounced titles in the Call of Duty universe.”
