In an unexpected turn of events, details about Infinity Ward’s next Call of Duty game have surfaced ahead of any official announcement. The leak comes courtesy of well-known Call of Duty insider “The Ghost of Hope,” who has a history of accurately sharing information about the franchise. According to the leaker, Infinity Ward is working on a new Modern Warfare title, slated for a 2026 release.
Key Features and Additions
The leaked information reveals several exciting features:
- Omnimovement and Wall Running: These gameplay mechanics, which reportedly will also feature in the 2025 Call of Duty installment, are expected to revolutionize player mobility.
- Map Remasters and Originals: Multiplayer will include remastered versions of many classic maps from the original Modern Warfare 3 (2011), alongside entirely new maps designed for the upcoming game.
Speculation on the Title
One of the most intriguing aspects of the leak is the potential title of the game. With its heavy reliance on Modern Warfare 3 content, naming it Modern Warfare 4 might feel repetitive. However, Activision already revisited Modern Warfare 3 with a 2023 release, making a straightforward title reuse unlikely.
Insider Insights
The Ghost of Hope shared via social media platform X:
“Infinity Ward’s next game is currently scheduled for late 2026. Infinity Ward will be utilizing Omnimovement and Wall Running (which is currently rumored to be a feature in Call of Duty 2025 as well) in their game. Infinity Ward will also be remastering a majority of Modern Warfare 3 (2011) maps for their game alongside new original maps.”
No Official Comments
As is customary, neither Infinity Ward, Activision, nor Xbox has commented on the leak. While fans are buzzing with excitement, it’s important to approach this information cautiously. Until an official reveal, all details remain unconfirmed.
Stay tuned for updates as more information becomes available about this highly anticipated installment in the Call of Duty franchise.
