The next Call of Duty title is not what you would expect

May 26, 2019 by Andrew Newton

Although not officially confirmed by Activision themselves, there has been some surprising info leaked regarding the title of the next Call of Duty game.


According to a Tweet from YouTuber LongSensation, Activision will be calling the next title in the franchise Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.  You can be forgiven thinking it is just a big joke but considering that Activision has been showing the game around to ‘influencers’ it was inevitable that a leak would occur.

Not long afterwards, Jason Schreier of Kotaku confirmed in a tweet that it is indeed going to be called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

I can confirm this is true, and that it's hilarious. The first one was "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare" so obviously the fourth one is "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare." Video games are absurd https://t.co/Ghb1m2srC4

I know it seems a bit confusing as to why they would call it Modern Warfare just like the first game in that Call of Duty series, however, the first title was actually Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare so it would perhaps be even more confusing calling it Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4.

The removal of the 4 makes a real big difference but what do you think?  Is it a daft title or do you think it makes perfect sense?  Leave a comment below or send us a tweet @FMyth_Gaming…
