"We need more than iteration, we need revitalization," Bowling said in reply to a tweet from Modern Warzone about the current state of Call of Duty.
Bowling said the Call of Duty series could benefit from returning to "core gameplay" instead of "content gateways."
"We used to treat our players like community and not consumers. We brought them in to the fold for map feedback not market feedback," Bowling said.
It’s time to build from the studs up.
