Call Of Duty Leak Suggests 2024's Game Is About Iraq War

According to a new report, 2024's Call of Duty game might tell a story about the war in Iraq. Twitter user TheGhostOfHope, who has accurately reported on unannounced Call of Duty details in the past, said the campaign for 2024's Call of Duty game will cover what the US government calls Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, as well as the Battle of Mogadishu, which took place years earlier.

In response to the 9/11 attacks, the United States and other allies launched attacks on Iraq in events that later came to be known as Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. As for the Battle of Mogadishu, this took place years earlier, in 1993, and the events were later adapted and dramatized in 2001's Black Hawk Down from director Ridley Scott.

According to a report, Activision will not release a new mainline Call of Duty game in 2023, but nothing is certain as of yet. The company is said to be planning a free-to-play Call of Duty for 2023.
