Call of Duty 2019 will be announced sometime in the next two months

After dropping support for Destiny 2 in January and later laying off a significant portion of their staff in February, Activision has spent the majority of this year attempting to shift their efforts towards a new “franchise-focused approach.”

Naturally, a big part of that approach will include a new entry in the Call of Duty franchise this Fall, and CEO Bobby Kotick recently teased a few tidbits about that game (which is currently known as Call of Duty 2019) during the megapublisher’s latest quarterly financial report. According to Kotick, Call of Duty 2019 is in development at Infinity Ward, and Activision will announce it sometime within the next two months. With the E3 Expo scheduled for mid-June, this timetable shouldn’t come as much of a surprise.

Kotick also believes that after the announcement, it’ll be “really clear” why the company is so excited for Call of Duty 2019:

So we continue to feel incredibly good about this year’s game coming from Infinity Ward. The game’s going to be revealed later this quarter. I think it’s going to be really clear then why we’re really so excited about the release.

Combining a “franchise-focused approach” with Infinity Ward means it seems very likely that Call of Duty 2019 will eventually be revealed as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 in the coming weeks. But while we don’t know that for sure at this point, we do know that the next entry in the Call of Duty franchise will be released sometime this Fall.
