Activision is prepping to reveal Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III at its Shadow Siege Limited Time Event inside Call of Duty: Warzone 2 at 10:30 a.m. Pacific time on Thursday.

Today, Activision gave us a little context for the game, which is a “direct sequel” to last year’s Modern Warfare II and is set to launch on November 10. It’s a surprise to see a “direct sequel” from last year’s title because in the past, Activision rotated the launch year among three major studios and then changed the theme each year, from World War II to Modern Warfare to Black Ops.

Various reports have said there are different explanations for this change. Some say that there was a development hiccup that saw complications such as the waning of demand for World War II games and studios falling behind on the main content. But it’s clear at the moment that Activision is sticking with the popularity of Modern Warfare, which arrived with a bang as a reboot in 2019 and then came again in 2022. Now, in 2023, the third installment of Modern Warfare III is coming, with Sledgehammer Games working closely with Infinity Ward to deliver the game.

Activision said the new title features return of iconic heroes and villains alike. Players will be able to grow closer to the characters, delve deeper into the storylines, and continue to build out progression and loadouts without interruption.

Each title release represents an epic experience that stands on its own in terms of unique gameplay and innovation. Modern Warfare III,
