Insider Gaming sources have revealed that this year's Call of Duty title will be called Modern Warfare 3 (Modern Warfare III). The title is in development by Sledgehammer Games (via Jason Schreier), but it's understood to be supported by various other Call of Duty studios, just like its predecessors.

It's been widely reported that Call of Duty 2023 was a "premium DLC" for Modern Warfare 2 and although that was the case at one time, this year's title is a fully-fledged sequel to Modern Warfare 2. Modern Warfare 3 will feature campaign, multiplayer, zombies, and a new Warzone 2 map during the title's first season.

Las Almas, the map found within the Modern Warfare 2 campaign will be Modern Warfare 3's fully-fledged Battle Royale map. It's understood that the map will launch during Season 1 – Which is currently penciled in to launch at the beginning of December.

For Modern Warfare 3 zombies, several sources have said that the mode is essentially an Outbreak 2.0. It's understood that Activision is currently weighing the possibilities on if the mode should be a part of the premium title or not, or if it makes more sense for the mode to be a free-to-play experience.

I didn't even know this was out until someone in work started talking to me about it like I should have marked my calendar. I get that I'm not the target audience, and it's still going to sell millions, but if people are aging out of the series, and new people aren't coming in because of Fortnite or whatever, it'd be hilarious if after the events of the last year it started to drop in sales

There's been a few duds in the last few years in the eyes of its fan base but it maintains a hold.  It just seems the genre as a whole has been dropping the ball so they'll have time to reassess for the next one.

This is the first Call of Duty I haven't bought at launch since 2007. 

 

I have no intention to purchase it, either.

I've been off the CoD train for awhile now, can't even remember the last I bought Day 1.

 

I got MW 2019 for free with a GPU on PC, bought WWII after release. Maybe Infinite Warfare was the last I bought Day 1.

 

It definitely seems the SP side is in decline from an outsiders perspective, each year seems to get a little bit worse and this year has taken the biscuit really on that front.
