For the first time in quite a few years, the license call of duty should take a break from its release schedule, and should not be entitled to a canonical episode in 2023. A change that has yet to be confirmed and reported to us by Bloomberg a few months ago. But Activision’s latest financial report seems to indicate this for the moment, with a change in strategy coming for the year 2023.
A big DLC or a spin-off in preparation?
In its financial statement for the second quarter of this fiscal year 2022/2023, Activision indicates that the license call of duty will receive new premium content » in 2023in other words, paid content.
Which seems to indicate that a major episode is left out of the equation for the coming year, but without preventing the publisher from releasing paid content for the community. This could for example take the form of a large paid DLCwhether for Modern Warfare 2 or for the new Warzone. But it could also be a spin-off of the series, on a smaller scale, as reported by VGC who mentions the existence ofa rumor about a Call of Duty Zombies stand-alone.
The future will tell us, but what is certain is that the publisher intends to ensure that its flagship series is lucrative in 2023, even without the release of a real episode.
