Activision confirmed that a new "Call of Duty" is on its way this year of 2021! The popular game publisher revealed that the multiplayer-shooting game will have a new installment in the popular title series.
However, Activision didn't confirm who will be the one to develop it. According to ScreenRant's latest report, Sledgehammer was previously tasked to release a "Call of Duty" in 2020. However, since it had some issues with Raven Software, which it had partnered to develop the game, the project underwent major changes.
Because of this, Activision passed the game's development to Treyarch and told the developer to release "Call of Duty" 2020 earlier than expected. This just shows that Activision's decision is unpredictable since it could choose any of the developers to make the upcoming "Call of Duty" 2021.
"CoD" 2021's release date and other details
Previously, Tom Henderson, a game industry insider, claimed that the upcoming title would be released on Nov. 21, 2021. He even showed a graph showing the release pattern of Activision's "Call of Duty" series. Henderson also believed that Sledgehammer might be the one developing it right now since it is still working on an alleged shooting game since 2019.
On the other hand, Activision didn't release any statement regarding the game's console compatibility. It did not confirm if it will be exclusive for the latest PS5 and Xbox Series X/S next-gen consoles or if it'll be playable in older versions.
There are also rumors circulating on the internet, claiming that Activision will bring a more futuristic ambiance to the current game. Speculations stated that Sledgehammer could develop a "Call of Duty" version that is based between 2054 and 2061. However, these are all just rumors. It is still advisable to wait for Activision's actual announcements.
