Last November it was reported that Call of Duty 2024 will be another Black Ops title, set in the Gulf War period, and today fresh details have emerged on this year's CoD game.
Coming by way of Insider Gaming, 'Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War' will feature an open world campaign developed by Raven Software. Despite Modern Warfare 3 containing 'open combat' missions, the upcoming Black Ops title will apparently present an open world "more akin to that of Far Cry" than anything we've seen from the series so far.
Here's a bit more about the game's campaign as per Insider Gaming sources:
"Players will be able to utilize vehicles to get around, as well as using a fast travel system to get from one point to the next. Although the scope of how many linear missions there will be remains to be seen, sources confirmed that some linear missions will be integrated into the game."
Additionally, longtime Black Ops team Treyarch is apparently handling Multiplayer and Zombies duties while recent Warzone developer Raven handles this year's campaign mode. At present, the teams are said to be aiming for an October 2024 launch for Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War.
It goes without saying that this information isn't confirmed at present, and we should find out about 2024's Call of Duty title in an official capacity in the coming months. This one sounds interesting though, and with a full development cycle behind it we could be in for a treat on Xbox later this year!
