Lazarus is right; the next Call of Duty will be taking place in space.

 

Here is an article about it:

 

"Citing anonymous "industry sources," Gamasutra is reporting that the Call of Duty game in the works at former Dead Space lead Glen Schofield's studio, Sledgehammer Games, will be set in the future. And so the immutable law of video games holds true: Every franchise, should it persist long enough, will gravitate toward space marines.

 

Beyond the nebulous unnamed sources, the Gamasutra speculation references...nothing. If "wanting to believe" is a way to make news come true, though, rumors of the Dead Space guy making a space-based Call of Duty game should have resulted in us playing it two years ago.

 

Gamasutra also takes on the long-standing rumor of an MMO entry in the CoD franchise, using remarks from Activision COO Thomas Tippl as supporting arguments in the matter: "We think there's a tremendous amount of appetite for Call of Duty content as well as services," he said in the company's third quarter earnings call last week [emphasis mine]. While Occam's Razor suggests premium items like private servers or increased capabilities within Black Ops' powerful Theater mode as more likely services, an MMO would certainly fit the bill.

 

Tippl also said, "We have more development resources dedicated to Call of Duty than we've ever had before." While this probably just means larger teams at Treyarch, Sledgehammer, and Infinity Ward (which does still exist, Activision assures us), it's not impossible that the publisher could be hiding the 200+ development team that would be needed for a triple-A MMO somewhere in the California desert.

 

What are you crossing your fingers for in the next Call of Duty? Or are you still planning on playing Black Ops well into 2012?"
