You've seen the leaks by now, 2023's Modern Warfare is officially going to be called, "Modern Warfare III."
Will this Call of Duty be the one to finally hit Activision where it hurts?
Or will it sell gangbusters like usual?
Who knows but the leaked information depressingly mimics their failed Modern Warfare 2022 strategy.
If you had to sum up Joe Cecot and the gang's strategy for Modern Warfare 2022 it would be this:
Starting a new era of Call of Duty where new mechanics are intertwined with all-in-one maps, complete multi-franchise integration, and multiple game modes to create the ultimate CoD package!
Essentially, stuffing in as much variety as possible and blurring the lines between everything CoD.
But we all know how it's turned out.
Call of Duty is now a suite of experiences that boil down to a Jack of all trades, master of none — Battle Royale, Resurgence, DMZ, Invasion, and traditional multiplayer all equally get no love.
The developers are in constant catch-up mode.
The whole thing has become an orgy of mid content and that can't be disputed.
That's where I see the latest news on Modern Warfare III taking us.
The latest Modern Warfare III leaks — or in the real world, Activision's marketing campaign — paint a numbing picture.

Being led by Sledgehammer Games, the upcoming sequel to Modern Warfare 2022 looks like it's going to be more of the same consumer experience we've been getting.
It's rumored that they're giving us a new Warzone map, Las Almas, along with a first for Modern Warfare, a Zombies mode. This new mode will be the non-round-based Outbreak mode from Black Ops: Cold War.

There are two ways this can all go:
Sledgehammer Games has the chance to save the entire franchise. They can make fundamental changes to movement and shooting.
They can give the community the arcade shooter we've been thirsting for, but that would mean a completely new Warzone experience to go along with the new map, Las Almas.
I think we all know that isn't happening.
Activision isn't going to split the player base further — especially when they just started ramping up content for the marketplace.
What's going to happen is we're all getting the 2022 experience — a generic campaign coupled with an unfinished multiplayer suite at launch.
What's worse now though, is that the franchise has a completely new mode to worry about — Zombies. The Black Ops staple has always been a bonafide arcade shooter experience so with the current state of Modern Warfare, how is it going to play?
Do you trust Sledgehammer and the gang to launch a competent Outbreak Zombies mode?
