Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III confirms November release

It's a sequel to last year's MWII (which is a reboot of 2009's MW2), while also being a reboot of 2011's MW3. Confused?

If you thought annual Call of Duty releases were a thing of the past, think again. It’s barely been a year since the reboot of Modern Warfare II came out, and now Modern Warfare III is nearly upon us already.

In a recent teaser uploaded to the official Call of Duty , it’s been announced that MWIII will launch on November 10. At the time of writing, there’s been no indication on what platforms the latest in the ongoing FPS series will be on. Rest assured, it will almost certainly be on the major current-gen systems, and possibly some previous-gen as well.

As for the teaser itself, it’s just over 40-seconds long and doesn’t really give a lot away. It seems this will be a direct sequel to 2022’s Modern Warfare II, which in itself is a reboot of 2009’s Modern Warfare 2.

Hidden messages

Eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed some numbers at the start of the c🌳lip.ܫ According to , this is actually a phone number. When a text message is sent to it, it reveals the following:

*** COMMS SECURED ***

major conflict incoming. a lot of opportunity.

we need someone like you, withꦕ experience in al mazrah

are you able to receive sensitive intel

yes / no

[upon responding yes]

good

expect mission critical intel. a taste of what’s toౠ come

Seems very on-brand with the Call of Duty vibe.

As mentioned above, Modern Warfare II was released less than a year ago. It received fairly decent reviews and scores overall. Modern Warfare III continues the trend of Infinity Ward and putting a new stamp on older entries. Will it be a rousing success? I mean, it’s Call of Duty. It’s going to sell in droves no matter what.
