Few video game series appear in such consistent regularity as Call of Duty. A new part of the shooter series has actually been published in every (!) Year since 2003, so it should not be surprised that this will also be the case in 2025.
So far, Activision has not officially indicated or even unveiled the new offshoot, but there are already some speculations and rumors about Call of Duty 2025. We have compiled this in this article.
A notice:So far, Call of Duty 2025 has not yet been officially confirmed, so the information in this article has so far been based on rumors and speculations. We update this article as soon as there is new - unofficial and/or official - on the subject.
Title and Setting: What will Call of Duty 2025 be for a cod?
In 2024 we got a new one, new one before two years-Abneger. It is not yet known which title CoD 2025 will be wearing, but there was concrete information in the name and setting a little longer ago.
Because howInsider GamingAt the end of 2023, Call of Duty 2025 is said to have a direct successor tobecome. So it is quite possible that this year's COD will also have the "Black Ops" in the name.
Setting and characters:Allegedly, the Bo2 sequel plays in the near future, more precisely in 2030. Here, well-known figures from the shooter published in 2012 should do an enemy that has not yet been mentioned.
Developer: Who takes care of Call of Duty 2025?
In the meantime, a number of studios are responsible for the CoD series. This includes:
- Infinity Ward
- Treyarch
- Sledgehammer Games
- Raven Software
- High Moon Studios
- Beenox
Infinity Ward traditionally takes care of the Modern Warfare offshoots, while Treyarch is responsible for the Black Ops games. If the 2025 part is actually a Black Ops Cod, it is so obvious that the game of Treyarch comes.
However, Treyarch has already completed Black Ops 6 last year, two shooters in succession from the same studio would be extremely unusual for CoD conditions.
According to the rumors, Sledhammer was originally intended as a studio that should be responsibleBut after the extremely short development time for Modern Warfare 3, rejected. Accordingly, it is not yet clear who is mainly responsible for Call of Duty 2025.
Release: When does Call of Duty 2025 come out?
- Propertive release period:Oktober/November
While the setting is difficult to predict, the release date of the new COD is significantly better. All series parts of the past few years have always been published in the period October/November.
We firmly assume that Call of Duty 2025 will also be released in this time window.
Will there be a multiplayer beta in advance?This is not yet clear, but the experiences from previous years show that this is very likely. If Activision is based on the schedules of recent years, the beta should take place at the end of August/early September.
COD 2025 comes into the Game Pass?Since Black Ops 6 already ended up directly to the launch in Microsoft's game service, we firmly assume that this will also be the case with all future cods-including Call of Duty 2025.
Platforms: For which systems does Call of Duty 2025 appear?
- Probable platforms:PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Switch 2, PC
In addition to the PC, the Call of Duty games in recent years have always appeared across generations for the consoles, i.e. in addition to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S but also for the "old" systems PS4 and Xbox One.
And apparently this will also be the case with Call of Duty 2025.According to the sources of Charlie IntelIn any case, the new part should also be developed for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
This would make the game a significantly larger player base, but holding onto the old systems will be specifically in the COD communityalso extremely critical.
Will there be a switch (2) version?Nintendo will publish a new console this year and given the fact that Microsoft still wants to publish the shooter series for Nintendo systems, we consider a publication on the Switch (2) to be quite realistic.
Multiplayer: What should the multiplayer mode of Call of Duty 2025 look like?
We do not lean too far out of the window and assume that COD 2025 also offers a multiplayer mode again. It is not yet known what it looks like, but the insider gaming report already mentioned above also cuts the multiplayer mode of this year's COD.
- MAP selection:For the launch, there should be both remastered cards made of BO2 and completely new maps.
- Gameplay adjustments:The developers are supposed to revise the movement and bring back the popular "pick-10 system", which will have your Loadout composed you from a total of 10 freely selectable elements.
In addition, a zombie mode should be there again, which is now typical of Black OPS offshoots.
