Already in November, the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, the next part of the popular shooter from Activision, will take place. However, the company already has plans for IP for many years to come.
In a recent interview with Gamesbeat, the head of Activision Rob Kostich said that the company already has plans for the development of the Call of Duty franchise for the next four years, that is, until 2027., Moreover, some projects are already in the work.
We are constantly at the stage of planning, long -term planning. At the moment, we have games planned for the period until the 27th year, on which we are working. Each such game is a great experience. Everything that happened in the past is an excellent experience. We have a huge focus group around the world, which every day tells us what she thinks about the franchise, and we pay special attention to her.
Kostich also added that in the coming years, Call of Duty will still aim at creating a variety of game experience, as was done in the past when creating games in a modern, futuristic style or in the theme of World War II.
I think we have made many games for the future. Perhaps we went there as far as possible. We made several games on the past. Over time, you begin to understand what exactly is of interest in the community. You see that games like Modern Warfare and Black Ops are really popular. We also had other games that have proven themselves very well, for example, the original World War 2 from Sledgehammer in 2017 was also very, very successful. I think the most important thing is the balance: we feel that we really need to offer high -quality and diverse experience for players so that they can enjoy games in different ways.
In one, we can certainly be sure: the games Call of Duty will be released on the PlayStation and Nintendo consoles over the next 10 years if the Activision Blizzard absorption transaction will take place (and the probability of this is growing).
As for what awaits the Call of Duty franchise after the release of Modern Warfare 3, according to leaks, the development of the new game of 2024 is engaged in Treyarch, which suggests that it could be another part of Black Ops.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is scheduled for November 10 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series S | X.
