There have been plenty of reports recently that suggest massive changes are in order for the “Call of Duty” franchise. And further information from a well-known leaker has now claimed that Treyarch is working on a new free-to-play Zombies game.
Activision entered the online free-to-play multiplayer space in 2020 with the launch of “Warzone.” However, it appears that the publisher plans on introducing another game in the same category with some key differences.
The new information came from noted leaker Tom Henderson, who reported that a standalone “Call of Duty” Zombies game is “in early development.” Henderson added that the game is not connected to any existing “Call of Duty” titles, unlike “Warzone,” which has had major annual updates related to the content released for the main series.
The Twitter page CODMW2Informer has also reported about a new free-to-play “Call of Duty” Zombies game, adding that it is being developed by Treyarch. The same source claimed that the standalone title could be released sometime in 2023.
These reports add to the pile of “Call of Duty” rumors that appeared in the wild recently. Earlier this week, Bloomberg reported that Activision has decided to internally delay the “Call of Duty” 2022 title, which is rumored to be a “Modern Warfare” follow-up.
Activision reportedly decided to give the next main series title more time following the underwhelming reception to “Call of Duty: Vanguard” last year. The same report noted, however, that the publisher plans to fill the gap with a couple of other game releases, including a free-to-play game. It is unclear if it was also a reference to the rumored standalone, free-to-play Zombies title.
The past weeks have been quite a whirlwind for “Call of Duty” fans. After Microsoft announced it is acquiring Activision Blizzard for almost $69 billion, many feared that the former would make the franchise exclusive to Xbox consoles and PC.
However, Microsoft has since clarified that upcoming “Call of Duty” games will still be available on PlayStation even beyond the existing deals between Sony and Activision. Microsoft also expressed its desire to make the first-person shooter franchise available on Nintendo Switch.
