Activision is changing the course of their leading shooter franchise as they are adding a new sub-franchise for the 2027 release of Call of Duty. Activision is taking a new turn with their flagship series and this means that players won't be seeing the new game in the typical Black Ops or Modern Warfare series. This is a change from the typical annual release that we've seen from the series in the past. Instead of seeing a new game that's a direct sequel to the recent stories, players and hardcore fans can look forward to a new world or gameplay setup.
Activision confirms the 2027 Call of Duty title will be a new sub-franchise, breaking from the Black Ops and Modern Warfare series.
The studio has already laid the groundwork for this new sub-franchise while they were working on the game, as they have confirmed. In a statement from Activision, it's been mentioned that there's going to be a new sub-franchise for a future title. They've already got the groundwork in place.
This confirms that the 2027 release isn't going to be a Black Ops or Modern Warfare game. Instead, they are gearing up to introduce the new identity for the series next year.
This new sub-franchise will be released in 2027. It's coming after the recent release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. The last game released on October 23rd.
It also wasn't part of Game Pass. This upcoming release will be something entirely different when it comes to the name and core ideas of the game. It's also separating itself from the past in an interesting way. With this news, it looks like Activision is using this to shake up the way players view the future of the series.
We already covered the most recent Call of Duty update which saw some of the same balance and stability talk come up. But this statement talks about huge changes to the identity of the franchise. It's not just some small tweak to the gameplay mechanics.
Although they've confirmed the new strategy, we don't know exactly what the game is going to be set in. At the moment, the studio is establishing this foundation for the new installment of this series.
