2021 is going to see Sledgehammer Games taking charge of Call of Duty once more, and with the game due out later this year, the time for its inevitable reveal is approaching. Even though there’s no official word on exactly when that will be, it’s very likely that the game is going to be announced soon.
According to VGC editor Andy Robinson, this year’s game – allegedly titled Call of Duty: Vanguard – is going to be revealed next month. That certainly lines up with how Black Ops Cold War was unveiled in August of 2020. In fact, similar to that game, it’s almost a certainty that Vanguard will be unveiled via the free-to-play Call of Duty: Warzone.
Reports and leaks have suggested that Call of Duty: Vanguard is going to be set during the Second World War, similar to Sledgehammer’s last Call of Duty game, and will be using the same engine as Modern Warfare (2019).
Recently, alpha builds of Call of Duty: Vanguard also appeared on Battle.net and the PlayStation Store. Read more on that through here.
