Former COD dev drops another hint that Modern Warfare 4 is coming
That developer was Robert Bowling, former creative strategist and community manager at Infinity Ward. As COD fans will know, that’s the studio which created the Modern Warfare sub-brand, and revolutionised the shooter genre with its first entry back in 2007.
We’re in the midst of a wave of Modern Warfare 4 rumours, thanks to four American football players who said on Instagram that they had played this year’s Call of Duty at a private preview event (via All Games Delta). A fan then slowed down the footage they posted, claiming to hear the words “killstreaks” and “Modern Warfare 4”, though the audio is far from clear.
It’s also possibly notable that, in Eurogamer’s coverage of that story, reading the first word of the first four paragraphs spells out ‘Modern Warfare 4’, though there’s no reason to think this is anything more than a cheeky nod to the rumours. Bowling clearly thinks they’re credible, and as he likely still has connections with Infinity Ward – whose turn it is to release the next COD – he’s in a position to know.
This just adds to a pre-existing body of Modern Warfare 4 rumours. In a February earnings call, Activision-Blizzard confirmed that COD 2019 is “rooted in some of the franchise’s most important history” and will have a single-player campaign (via PC Gamer). Earlier this year, Infinity Ward’s communications manager was regularly tweeting mysterious, macabre imagery which some took as a hint that COD 2019 would be a sequel to 2013’s Ghosts, until Kotaku’s well-connected Jason Schreier quashed that idea.
It seems pretty unlikely that Infinity Ward would launch a new sub-series given the hostile reception to its last effort, 2016’s Infinite Warfare, and those comments about the franchise’s history. So while we still haven’t heard anything official, Modern Warfare 4 is looking like an increasingly safe bet. The annual COD is typically revealed well ahead of E3, so we shouldn’t have much longer to wait either way.

dont know how mw4 will work when soap and quite alot of the original guys are dead and the original iw is also dead, unless new iw doesnt add stupid iw jet packs or black ops 4 150hp(wait too much when you dont have an lmg)
if its mw4 it better be telling the back story of all the past mw series up to the current day of whatever year its set in, it also better be set in 2022 or 2021 not this futuristic crap we dont want, since modern warfare takes place two years(ie mw1 was 2007 took place in 2009) mw2(2012) mw3(didnt play the story but im assuming it was 2014) so mw4 better follow this style so 2022 would make sense same with 2021.
but i do have my doubts its mw4 its most likely ghosts 2 which ghosts wasnt a bad cod it was the last real bog game before bo4 but cant wait to be proven either wrong or right at e3 or earlier
