More Call of Duty remasters could be on their way

Call of Duty has been a staple of the video games industry for almost two decades, with publisher Activision ensuring the chart-topping franchise released a game every year. With this no longer being the case under Microsoft, it seems the console manufacturer will supplement mainline releases with remasters of older COD titles.

According to known Call of Duty leaker ‘RalphsValve’ “Activision are reportedly considering releasing Remastered Call of Duty titles repurposed for newer consoles to fill out the empty space between Premium Call of Duty titles.”

A couple remastered Call of Duty titles have released in the past, namely updates to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2 – though in the case of the latter only the campaign was brought over.

Under Microsoft, these remasters could come in many different forms. Microsoft has promised to release future Call of Duty titles to PlayStation, but it is possible that these remasters could be exclusive to Xbox due to them being older games.

Alternatively, the COD remasers could take the form of free upgrades for Xbox Game Pass owners – with PlayStation fans having to purchase them. Lastly, there is also the question of whether these remasters will include multiplayer, or if they will only launch with the campaigns. We will have to wait and see.

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.
