Fans have been waiting patiently for any news onCall of Duty 2020, and it seemed like the big announcement was going to happen today, June 4, during the PS5 game reveal event. However, Sony has decided to delay the PS5 game reveal event in acknowledgement of the Black Lives Matter protests taking place all over the world since the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers. With the PS5 game reveal event delayed, it remains to be seen exactly whenCall of Duty 2020itself will be revealed.
However, it seems like a safe bet that theCall of Duty 2020reveal will still take place during the PS5 games showcase. Events like these usually involve deals that can’t just be broken, and so fans can expectCall of Duty 2020to still be revealed alongside at thePS5 games reveal event, whenever that takes place.

Sony has not announced a new date for the PS5 game reveal event at the time of this writing. However, it has said that the PS5 game reveal will happen soon, and so fans shouldn’t have to wait all that much longer. It’s possible that the event will take place at some point next week, or maybe even later this month, but it’s hard to see it being pushed back to July. Then again, that may largely depend on how long theBlack Lives Matter protestslast.
In the meantime, someearlyCall of Duty 2020gameplay footage has leaked online, seemingly confirming the game’s Cold War setting. The footage appeared to be of a multiplayer map set in a tank warehouse or factory, though additional details are unavailable at this time. PerhapsCall of Dutyfans will get a closer look at this map when Activision does finally decide to pull the curtain back onCall of Duty 2020.
TheCall of Duty 2020announcement delay wasn’t the onlyCall of Duty-related event pushed back out of respect for the Black Lives Matter movement. Activision also decided to delay the start ofCall of Duty: Modern WarfareSeason 4, as well asCall of Duty MobileSeason 7.
