It’s hard to generalize for a series as big asCall of Duty, but I’d say that many fans have a soft spot forBlack Ops– Treyarch has fun. Even without concrete details, there’s wiggle room for cautious excitement. And, as far as these things go, I appreciate having a condensed marketing cycle. As noted on the call by Activision president and COO Daniel Alegre, they’re still planning a “release later this year.”

One thing is for sure: Activision will have to continue jugglingCall of Duty: Warzone. The latest milestone?75 million players. It’s a winning format, but I hope they can rein in the bloated file size.
