Call Of Duty Fans Find Hints The Series Is returning To World War II
Following the success of EA's World War I based Battlefield 1 and the relative disappointment of the sci-fi Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, a return to World War II would make sense, but there's reason to be a bit wary of this information.
The leak came courtesy of largely-unknown YouTube channel TheFamilyVideoGamers, who claim they got their information from an anonymous email. Why would a somebody leak gossip this juicy to a channel with fewer than 250 subscribers? It all smells a bit fishy, but stranger things have happened.
Well, Call of Duty fans on Reddit are doing everything they can to substantiate the new information, and their amateur sleuthing has uncovered a couple interesting tidbits. The leak states that Call of Duty WWII is being developed by Sledgehammer Games (the folks behind 2014's Call of Duty: Advance Warfare) and until recently the studio's co-founder Michael Condrey has this as his Twitter bio.
Hmmm, what could those pound signs be all about? There's four of them, which means they could be a stand-in for “WWII.” Or a lot of other four-letter words.
Meanwhile, other Redditors have pointed out the similarity between the leaked images, and the original World War II-set Call of Duty's promotional art. The definitely use a similar style and the same orangish-brownish palatte. Could Call of Duty WWII actually be a remake of the earlier games in the series?
Obviously, none of this is hard evidence, but Call of Duty WWII seems likely at this point. With E3 2017 inching closer, an official Activision announcement can't be far away!

I'm kind of skeptical with Sledgehammer handling a WW2 game. Their past games probably had the most complaints for a CoD game. MW3 looked really dull and colours were washed out when compared to MW2 colours. I personally loved the single player but a lot of people complained about it being lackluster when compared to CoD 4 and MW2. Multiplayer wasn't balanced at all with the guns, some perks and of course Robert (Trolling) Bowling "No more Last Stand!" >Adds in Final Stand where you can get back up, uses a primary and then Dead Man's Hand that had the range to blow up a city block. MW3 could be said it was both IW and Sledgehammer's fault for having a mixed game but Advanced Warfare was a complete mess to a lot of people, it was also one of the fastest CoD games and games in general I have ever seen die out on PC. That was purely from Sledgehammer if I recall. So I'm very skeptical with how a WW2 game will go with them.
I don't know what Treyarch is making for their game but I know some people assumed it would be another WW2 game or even a World at War remake/remastered; following the steps of Modern Warfare Remastered. Hopefully if a WW2 game is being made, it's either by Sledgehammer or Treyarch (would prefer Treyarch) because I feel the community would cave in on it's own ass if 2 WW2 games came out within 2 years and it would be back in the same circle of "we want something new" all over again which would continue the slew that CoD has been in for the past few years since introducing boots off the ground.

Dusknoir this is cool but i feel like the ww2 theme has been done to many times.
It's been done a lot, but that's where the series started. It would be nice to see it go back to it's roots for once, instead of having green men with jetpacks running around on the walls.

Halozkax-Silky WW2 with jet packs probably.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised
That'd be pretty damn hilarious. I'd love to see the reaction on that lol
