According to WarzoneNewz on Twitter, Activision recently sent a DCMA claim against someone for posting something about Sledgehammer’sCall of Duty2021(reportedly calledWW2 Vanguard) being delayed. Because of this delay, the multiplayer ofCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2remastered will reportedly be replacing it.
What is interesting about this rumor is thatSledgehammer Games has had development issues in the pastwithCall of Duty. Treyarch had to step in and speed up the development of its ownCall of Dutygame because Sledgehammer dropped the ball, according to reports. If this were to happen again, that would be a very bad look.
Call of Dutyhas arrived at almost a sports-like level of drama, insider leaks, and rumor mill speculation. In the sports world, whether it be players signing or trading with new teams, off-the-field drama, or whatever the case may be, the rumors and drama are near endless.Call of Dutyfeels like it is there as well. It is very hard to decipher between all of theleaks and rumors forCall of Dutyover the past couple of years. The “insiders” appear to throw so much at fans that eventually some of it will stick, but no one can keep track of all of the incorrect reports either.
As such, it’s important to reiterate the need to take it all with a massive grain of salt. A lot of the time, it is the constant whispers that add up to those leaks gaining traction. In the case ofCall of Duty: Warzone, there were rumors of aCall of Dutybattle royale for several months before the game launched, and the reports of the map being nuked in the game were constant as well. But some other “leaks” about new maps appear to have been a bit off base. So when it comes toCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, wait for more additional rumors and leaks to give this news some more credence, but of course, wait for the official news from the developers and publishers themselves to make it official.
