Perhaps nothing gets Call of Duty fans frothing at the mouth with excitement like an Infinity Ward tease. Anyone in a similar boat might want to sit down.
For those not keeping track, Infinity Ward is the studio behind the original Call of Duty from 2003, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, and the remarkably superb Call of Duty: Modern Warfare from 2019. Some of the best first-person shooters ever, basically.
Much to the delight of longtime fans, a rather curious tweet on Thursday suggests Infinity Ward isn’t done with the series yet.
“A new generation of Call of Duty is coming soon,” Infinity Ward said on Twitter. “Stay frosty.”

This tease likely means that Infinity Ward is developing 2022’s big Call of Duty title, of which we know three are in development currently. Many speculate this would be a sequel to 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, though nothing’s for sure until the studio or Activision Blizzard comes out and explicitly states what’s up.
With Microsoft’s $68.7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard, it’s wild to think this fall’s Call of Duty title will technically be a first-party game from Xbox. PlayStation fans need not worry, though, as it’ll surely come to PS5 as well.
