While the video game publisher Activision has yet to officially declare whatCall of Dutytitle would be making its way into the marketplace for 2019, rumors have been swirling for quite a while thatModern Warfare 4could be in the cards. Now, it looks as if more fuel is being added to the speculative fires, as the former Creative Strategist for Infinity Ward, Robert Bowling, has teased that aModern Warfareentry is coming in 2019.
According to an exchange between Bowling and a video game fan on Twitter, the former Infinity Ward employee and current Creative Consultant forElectronic Artsstated that fans shouldn’t worry about being subjected to another futuristic first-person shooter, as they would be “getting a Modern shooter this year”. It’s worth noting, though, that while he didn’t explicitly state a newModern Warfareis in the works, Bowling did imply as much by capitalizing the “M” in the word “Modern”.
As previously mentioned, Bowling likely isn’t far off the mark with his assertion, as there have been innumerable bits of hearsay involvingCall of Duty’s 2019 release being the fourth installment in theModern Warfareseries. As it so happens, a Senior Communications Manager for Infinity Ward even recentlyteased that an announcement is imminentregardingCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 4coming for current generation platforms. Compound this with the fact that the site Gaming INTEL purportedly received information from anonymous sources confirming as much, and it looks likeMW4is on the way.
Of course, it must be mentioned that there’s no real way to know for sure if a newCall of Duty: Modern Warfareis indeed happening this year until Activision and Infinity Ward publicly proclaim that to be the case. Until then, we will simply have to wait and see when the publisher and developer decide to pull back the curtain on what it plans on putting out as its annual project for the long-running first-person shooter franchise in 2019.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4has yet to be officially announced.
