Call of Duty series is going through a rough phase lately. The ongoing installments in Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2 have mostly failed to live up to expectations. Not to mention that they have made the community disappointed with the overall experience. This is due to the lack of engaging content and the necessary changes requested by the fans.

Interestingly, it looks like this is the right time for rivals to take on Call of Duty’s dominance and overshadow the franchise as well. At least that’s what seems to be the case at the moment, looking at an upcoming FPS shooter from Ubisoft. After many years, a different game is appearing to fill the void created by the current COD titles.
