When And How To Watch And Everything You Need To Know

The big day is almost upon us. Activision and Infinity Ward are set to reveal the future of Call Of Duty as a franchise during the Call Of Duty Next event this week.

The livestream will introduce fans of the shooter franchise to a slew of new intel on three upcoming games in the Call Of Duty universe:

  • Modern Warfare 2 will get its big multiplayer reveal and players will learn more about the modes, maps and co-operative play coming to the game, as well as various innovations to gameplay and much more.
  • Warzone 2.0 is the new, wholly independent free-to-play battle royale that’s being positioned to take over for the current Warzone. We’ll learn about the new map, gameplay and next-gen features during the Call Of Duty Next event.
  • Warzone Mobile is a new free-to-play Android and iOS battle-royale game that is rumored to share some elements of cross-play and/or cross-progression with Warzone 2.0. We’ll learn all about the game and how it ties into the other titles during the Next event.

Other key details players will learn about include:

  • The future of the Call Of Duty franchise as a whole, including how all future games and studios—across Black Ops, Modern Warfare and beyond—will be made on the same unified game engine.
  • Important info about the Modern Warfare II Beta that kicks off this weekend.
  • Gameplay in action as over 150 popular streamers will go head-to-head and play the game(s) live. (I’m not 100% sure if this includes both MWII and Warzone II but I get the feeling we’ll see both).
