I legit wondered if after all the stuff going on with ActiBlizz right now if CoD would actually miss a year for once, but nope looks like it's not. This years game is subtitled "Vanguard" and is made by Sledgehammer, who previously did Advanced Warfare and CoD: WWII, and like their previous entry this one is also set in WW2. Similar to the older CoD games the campaign will follow battles on multiple fronts with four main characters. A British soldier fighting in the Western Front, an American soldier in the Pacific, an Australian soldier in North Africa, and a Soviet soldier on the Eastern Front. The game will be more in line with the series' usual "action movie" approach rather than the somewhat more grounded and gritty approach CoD WWII took. The game will launch on November 5 (with Battlefield and CoD both having release dates now, I expect Microsoft might confirm Halo: Infinite's campaign and multiplayer launch soon for mid November before Black Friday), and will have a zombies mode included that Treyarch is handling.
While I do have a dislike for ActiBlizz's upper management who most of the money goes toward, you do have to remember the devs at Sledgehammer are the ones who make the game, so Sledgehammer isn't really the company who hate should be directed at. Hopefully the campaign will be solid like Modern Warfare 2019 and Cold War were.
