According to well-known COD leaker TheGhostOfHope, the MW3 developer is working on a full Call of Duty project for 2027. For those of you who aren't aware, 2023's Modern Warfare 3 was more of a stop-gap Call of Duty game that built on Modern Warfare 2; adding in loads of multiplayer content from the 2022 game.
If this is true, and the Sledgehammer title does follow a new Infinity Ward game in 2026, both of these Call of Duty titles will be getting four-year development cycles, similar to this year's Black Ops 6. Given how well BO6 turned out with that extra dev time, this could bode well for COD 2026 and COD 2027.
This is all rumour at present, and until we get more information from Xbox and Activision, we should take it with a pinch of salt. That being said, this apparent release timeline does leave a question mark over COD 2025, which could turn out to be another stop-gap Call of Duty game - much like MW3.
