In its third-quarter financial results that were released this week, Activision confirmed that “the next full premium release” in the Call of Duty franchise will be released in 2023. Previous reports indicated that there wouldn’t be a full-fledged Call of Duty out next year–the first time in two decades for the franchise–and that Activision would instead build on Modern Warfare II to deliver more DLC.
“Activision is looking forward to building on its current momentum in 2023, with plans for next year including the most robust Call of Duty live operations to date, the next full premium release in the blockbuster annual series, and even more engaging free-to-play experiences across platforms,” Activision’s investor report reads. The wording seemingly indicates a new Call of Duty experience for 2023, but Bloomberg’s Jason Schrier has claimed that this will take the shape of a significant expansion for Modern Warfare II instead.
