Call Of Duty: Vanguard Officially Unveiled

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know Activision has been embroiled in a massive scandal as of late — its sister studio Blizzard has been accused of misogyny and fostering a toxic, abusive culture.

CEO Bobby Kotick’s response was typically Koticky (read: tone-deaf, arrogant and avoiding the issue), prompting Activision’s employees to stage a massive walk-out. It’s in this firestorm that Activision has been forced to reveal its next Call of Duty. So, uh….how is it? Call of Duty: Vanguard returns the CoD series to its most familiar setting: World War II. There was once a time when WWII was the only setting for a military shooter you could buy, so usually whenever they attempt it these days, they have to throw in a new twist. This time, the single-player campaign will be focused on four characters from around the world: Sgt. Arthur Kingsley of Britain’s 9th Parachute Battalion, Lt.

Talking to Game Informer Sledgehammer co-studio head Glen Schofield revealed that the developer was working on a third-person shooter version of Call of Duty. According to Schofield the game was set in Vietnam and would have featured players having to adapt to the battlefield and overcome a number of obstacles. Using experience from his working at Visceral Games, along with the other co-studio head Michael Condrey, the team was aiming to create a chilling atmosphere with a treacherous environment. Both of the studio heads had worked on EA’s Dead Space and wanted to incorporate elements of that series into the new Call of Duty game. “We had the underground tunnels, we were definitely getting some Dead Space moments. I don’t mean that from sci-fi, I mean that was a war that was scary for the troops. They didn’t know if in the jungle there was a booby trap, or what was in those tunnels. And there were thousands of miles of tunnel underground. It was a hidden war, right? Everybody

Job listings have been popping up all over the web since early February, including Gamasutra, and more recently LinkedIn. However, given the context of Call of Duty: Ghosts’ reveal a week ago, we’re baffled as to what it is Sledgehammer is currently recruiting for. When Activision came forward to confirm the existence of Ghosts, days after Tesco prematurely listed the product online, the studio sent a congratulatory Tweet to Infinity Ward that proves Glen Schofield and his crew are not supporting the game’s production: Congrats to @infinityward on #CODGhosts! Our team is heads down on our next project, but best wishes to the hardworking team at IW! — Sledgehammer Games (@SHGames) May 1, 2013 So with a reformed IW readying Ghosts for November and Treyarch showing no signs of abandoning Black Ops, what on Earth is this “next project”? Could it be Modern Warfare 4? It’s a
