A message from the Call of Duty team.
In 24 hours, we will all jump into the Shadow Siege Limited Time Event and experience a first look at the all-new, Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® III, set to launch on November 10th. This reveal represents a special moment for Call of Duty®, as for the first time in franchise history, this year’s premium release serves as a direct sequel to last year’s Modern Warfare® II.
Our vision to deliver back-to-back Modern Warfare games has been years in the making. From the start of development across both Modern Warfare II and Modern Warfare III, Sledgehammer Games has worked closely with Infinity Ward to create a blockbuster sequel in the Modern Warfare series, featuring the return of iconic heroes and villains alike. Players will be able to grow closer to the characters, delve deeper into the storylines, and continue to build out progression and loadouts without interruption.
Each title release represents an epic experience that stands on its own in terms of unique gameplay and innovation. Modern Warfare III, however, pays off what the previous titles have set up. It’s poised to settle old scores and start new ones. With back-to-back premium releases, we are truly thrilled for what the future holds for Modern Warfare and Call of Duty.
While tomorrow is only the beginning, our teams have set their sights to create an incredible, premium annual game experience across Campaign, Multiplayer and Co-operative modes as well as deep integration with Call of Duty: Warzone. A few highlights that we’re most excited about:
· For the first time ever, a direct sequel in back-to-back years delivering an all new Campaign that marks the return of Makarov.
· With Carry Forward, players can continue to enjoy player inventory and weapon progression from last year’s Modern Warfare II into this year’s all-new, Modern Warfare III.
· Did someone say Zombies? More information coming soon on the new Modern Warfare® Zombies: The largest Zombies offering to date.
· New Open Combat missions in Campaign; new Combat Vests and Perk system for customizing your Multiplayer Operator; new Tac-Stance movement; new After-Market Parts for unparalleled Gunsmith customization and more.
· One access point for your future Call of Duty content. Starting with Modern Warfare II and Warzone, and now with Modern Warfare III and beyond, players can navigate all their content in one place, we call it Call of Duty HQ – making it easier to select which game and modes you wish to play.
· New additions to Ricochet Anti-Cheat™ as well as new anti-toxicity plans to continue to deliver a fun, fair and welcoming online experience for all players.
· Roadmap of post launch live seasons of additional new content.
Starting tomorrow and in the weeks to come, we’ll unpack a ton more information as we approach the November 10th release. We can’t wait for you to see what’s coming with Modern Warfare III. Thank you for continuing to take this journey with us.
