Notable Call of Duty insider will no longer share leaks following Activision intervention

For the past year or so, one of the biggest leakers in the Call of Duty space has been TheGhostofHope, with the insider having revealed a ton of information regarding current and even future COD entries. In the wake of a recent report by the insider claiming that some major shake-ups may be happening internally, Activision have now “legally demanded that I stop leaking and disseminating confidential information related to Call of Duty.”

Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, known Call of Duty leaker TheGhostofHope revealed that “Activision has legally demanded that I stop leaking and disseminating confidential information related to Call of Duty/Activision and I am complying with their demands. Still gonna stick around and chat about Official Call of Duty info and anything not related to leaks/confidential information. Cheers for these past few years.”

Interestingly, alongside this recent revelation, Call of Duty themselves commented on these latest events. In response to one tweet by COD YouTuber ‘TDAWG’ who asked “So if Call of Duty is shutting ghostofhope down…was he right about everything…?” the official Call of Duty account replied with:

“Nah. Even when leaks are wrong, they still hurt the people building the game and mess with player expectations.”

Whether TheGhostofHope was right or not, we will have to wait and see, but for better or for worse, it seems Activision is cracking down on leaks moving forward.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
