First on PS via moneyhat? Buying on Xbox confirmedExclusive - Call of Duty 2023 Named "Modern Warfare 3"
Insider Gaming sources have revealed that this year's Call of Duty title will be called Modern Warfare 3 (Modern Warfare III).insider-gaming.com
Insider Gaming sources have revealed that this year's Call of Duty title will be called Modern Warfare 3 (Modern Warfare III). The title is in development by Sledgehammer Games (via Jason Schreier), but it's understood to be supported by various other Call of Duty studios, just like its predecessors.
It's been widely reported that Call of Duty 2023 was a "premium DLC" for Modern Warfare 2 and although that was the case at one time, this year's title is a fully-fledged sequel to Modern Warfare 2. Modern Warfare 3 will feature campaign, multiplayer, zombies, and a new Warzone 2 map during the title's first season.
Las Almas, the map found within the Modern Warfare 2 campaign will be Modern Warfare 3's fully-fledged Battle Royale map. It's understood that the map will launch during Season 1 – Which is currently penciled in to launch at the beginning of December.
For Modern Warfare 3 zombies, several sources have said that the mode is essentially an Outbreak 2.0. It's understood that Activision is currently weighing the possibilities on if the mode should be a part of the premium title or not, or if it makes more sense for the mode to be a free-to-play experience.

Anyone else find it strange Sony didn’t make out allude to an announcement for this yet or today at their game showcase?
Thatswhatshesaid.gifToo soon.
And Sony was worried Xbox would make their versions of cod be bad?Instead of delaying watch this launch and be a clustf*** for months.
Actually MW got back popular towards the end of Cold War and throughout Vanguard.Yeah this is going to be another Vanguard mess, or maybe worse. Vanguard was the first COD I ever skipped completely and I will likely skip this too unless the beta blows me away.
Them holding back the classic maps is just another slap in the face. I bet a lot of people will stick with MW2, just like a lot stuck with Cold War after Vanguard came out.
Was thinking they maybe held off until the acquisition went through to announce with MS... but that feels far off atm lolIt is comical how little they've shown on this game. Beta is supposedly 3 months away in early October.
I fired up a round of Cold War and remembered just how good that game was.
Maybe Sony is making them hold off on showing it just yet, maybe they want to go out with a bang?Was thinking they maybe held off until the acquisition went through to announce with MS... but that feels far off atm lol

Kotick said (last year and this) they haven’t been approached, by Sony, to negotiate a new contract. Whatever happens I don’t think they need to negotiate anything new, so long as tbey give the ok to continue to develop games for ps. Cos they already know, and have first hand experience, that Xbox will hold true their contracts if they were to buy abk (ie ghost wire Tokyo and deathloop). Hell they didn’t sign any contract for Minecraft or any of its spin-offs.Yeah maybe they see which way the wind blows and then once final decision is known, they do marketing deal with that company.
