You Want Call of Duty 2 Remaster? You Might Just Get It
According to new rumors, Activision may be preparing remastered versions of old installments of Call of Duty.
It has been reported that Activision Blizzard is considering developing refreshed versions of older installments of Call of Duty.
- According to these rumors, refreshed versions would be created for next-gen consoles, namely PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
- Currently, the most likely candidates for remasters are: CoD: World at War, Call of Duty 2 and the first Call of Duty.
- Also under consideration is the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered on Nintendo Switch.
- Activision wants to use this to make waiting for the new main installments of the series more pleasant for the players.
- The source of these reports is the reputable leaker RalphsValve, who previously reported about i.a. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 long before this title was officially announced.
These rumors fit earlier speculations, according to which the release of Treyarch's upcoming Call of Duty game, has been delayed from 2023 to 2024. Next year would be the first in a dozen years when we would not get a new main installment. If this is true, Activision may want to fill this gap with a remaster of an older part.
Remastering earlier installments is not something new for the series. In 2016, we saw the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered, and two years ago we received Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered.
Finally, let's recall that this year will also see the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone 2. Both games will be heavily supported in 2023, so even without remasters of older installments players would have no reasons to complain about fresh attractions, especially since both titles are expected to offer a new mode, DMZ, inspired by the solutions from Escape from Tarkov.
