4.1
Yet more Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare information has seemingly leaked online, revealing plot details, characters and gear.

This comes in wake multiple major leaks regarding Sledgehammer's debut CoD game, including a Call of Duty: Advanced Warfighter trailer and first info.

Advanced Warfighter serves as a "carefully researched and crafted vision of the future", according to the newly emerging document. Jonathan Irons is the founder of the world's largest Private Military Corporations (PMCs), Atlas Corporation, in an era when PMCs are the dominant military forces of the world.

The game takes advantage of its futuristic setting to grace players with the power of a heavily augmented soldier, equipped with a cybernetic exoskeleton that lets players achieve "boost jumps and grappling, covert cloaking abilities, and biomechanics that provide unparalleled strength, awareness, endurance, and speed".

New futuristic gear including "equipment, technology, perks, and vehicles like hoverbikes and highly specialized drones", are also described.

Players will wield weapons that shoot "standard ammunition", as well an a "new class of directed-energy weaponry that enables totally new gameplay dynamics".

This comes together to provide a refreshing new take on Call of Duty gameplay, promises the document.

"With the advent of the exoskeleton and newly advanced armor and weaponry, every soldier commands tactical freedom in any terrain unlike ever before, fundamentally changing the way gamers play Call of Duty across all modes," it says.

AGB has also posted what appears to be final box art for the game (pictured at the bottom of this report).

Activision announced on Thursday that it would fully reveal the forthcoming Call of Duty installment on Sunday, May 4. According to the leaks, the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare release date is set for November 4 on PC, last-gen and current-gen consoles.

Here's the document as posted in full:

AR15 Just as always, everyone (most everyone) is excited for the newest Call of Duty. They're literally the same game with a new storyline and graphical touch ups. Minor stuff. NOT a new game.


You sir are stupid. You can say that for every other sequel game there is.


Accept Halo :) Best story ever plus change up in gameplay.


Exactly, look at the changes from Halo 2 to Halo 3. Then Halo 3 to Halo: Reach. THEN to Halo 4, constantly evolving and still amazing every year.


Except Halo Reach and Halo 4 are terrible. Halo 5 needs to return to Halo 2/3 and it will be amazing.

Halo 4 isn't really the game to call a great change, the storyline in the campaign was terrible so was the physics of the gameplay. I liked Bungie's work so much better. And even though Bungie doesn't do halo games anymore i would expect 343 to keep it traditional and WOW halo fans by keeping the storyline not crappy and not kill off characters in the first game of the reclaimer saga. Thats just my opinion.
