Activision: 2019’s Call of Duty will have a campaign

4
Activision revealed details about this year’s installment of the Call of Duty franchise during its quarterly earnings call Tuesday, including that it will feature “an entirely new campaign.” This is a departure from Black Ops 4, which featured no campaign, instead focusing on its multiplayer components.

Speaking during the Q&A portion of the call, Rob Kostich, the newly-named President of Activision, discussed 2019’s Call of Duty game, saying that it will include “an entirely new campaign, a huge and expansive multiplayer world and some fun co-op gameplay.” This is the first time Activision has publicly confirmed the return of a campaign to Call of Duty since 2017’s Call of Duty WW2.

Dennis Durkin, Activision’s CFO, did say, however that the company doesn’t anticipate sales of the 2019 Call of Duty being as strong as 2018’s Black Ops 4. “Call of Duty units are down year-over-year in our outlook,” Durkin stated when discussing 2019 projections.

During the same call, Activision Blizzard announced it was cutting 8 percent of its staff across the company and its studios, and that shifted focus would allow it to focus on “owned franchises” such as Call of Duty.

JOEYKMODS cod needs to just return to its roots like mw2 and mw3 and they might just bring back a good gaming community


That will never happen lol. Eliminating skill gaps sales more copy's. If a 12 year old cant call in a black hawk from dying 12 times in a row he isn't going to play it.

Call of duty is dead. They going going to release ANOTHER AAA shooter title for $60-$70 have payed subscription, payed DLC and people are still going to flock to it. They can't even get spawning, or maps right in Blops 4 why are they already talking about the "next cod." It's to distract you from the fact that they just realeased this game less than a year ago and it's still broken. But fortnite somehow has changed the map 30 times, introduced 30+ guns. Etc.. FOR FREE!! You literally have to be mentally handicapped to support CoD. The gaming industry right now it in a perfect spot to leave this crap behind. F2P with in game content that's purchasable, or AAA titles that actually do R&D to give a game the community wants is where we could be. But no...
