Can’t have too many reboots, you know.
Activision and Infinity Ward have announced 2019’s Call of Duty game. it’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. No bloody 2, 3 or 4. It’s a reboot, baby! And it’s being given a facelift, with a story that’s “ripped from the headlines”. But don’t worry; characters you love will be returning, such as Captain Price. And you’ll get those expected multiplayer modes, to. There will even be a co-op mode, featuring a number of strategic co-op missions. And they plan to release this on October 25th, this year.
“This project is different [than Infinity Ward’s previous Call of Duty games],” studio head Dave Stohl told IGN. “It’s a real passion project for the studio.” He added that the team is pivoting away from the futuristic, sci-fi tilt that Call of Duty games (outside of 2017’s Call of Duty: WWII) have taken on in recent years, and returning it to its more realistic roots. “This is a military sim. It’s more about that kind of authentic experience.”

Notably, the game won’t have the now-traditional season pass. According to Activision, this is so the team can deliver more free maps and post-launch events to players. The PC version will be fully optimized for PC, and will be available through Battle.net. There will also be cross-play in the mix:
With the launch of Modern Warfare, the team is taking steps to unite the community. First, the team plans for Modern Warfare to be played together across PC and console through cross-play support.
