Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will be out on all consoles – yes, even the Wii U – but the game’s next gen focus shouldn’t be doubted. As Sledgehammer Games co-founder Michael Condrey told OXM, the game will be taking full advantage of the PS4 and Xbox One.

“We really have to thank Activision, not just for the extra year, but for the singular focus. Three years to get to next gen. The current gen game – and there’s more news to come about that – never got in the way of our ambitions, it never stopped us from being super-creative about taking full advantage of the next-gen hardware.”

Having High Moon Studios develop the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions also took a lot of the strain off of Sledgehammer. “It decoupled us from worrying about having to do a split-platform year, like titles had to last year. So that was really refreshing, and gave us some freedom to really go after this one.”

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will be out on November 4th.
