In wider Call of Duty news, it’s been reported that 2023’s Call of Duty game has been delayed to 2024 in a move that is completely separate from Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard and all of its franchises and studios. To fill the gap, Treyarch is reportedly assisting on the development of a new free-to-play game for 2023.
