Call of Duty Modern Warfare II is the ongoing installment from Activision. While it has been a successful offering, fans have given it a lukewarm reaction due to many reasons. Hence, it’s important for the publisher to deliver its next major premium as an improvement over what’s available right now.

Thanks to the recent leaks, it’s already known that the upcoming entry could be another addition in the Modern Warfare sub-series. In other words, it might be the direction continuation of MWII’s story. But when will it launch eventually?

In case anyone has missed keeping track of the past, the long-running series was originally introduced to the world in 2003. That was the year when Activision had released the first-ever COD title on October 29th. Since then, the company has followed the tradition of dropping a brand new game annually.

Now coming back to the rumored Call of Duty premium in 2023, it’s expected to be helmed by Sledgehammer Games. The studio was previously involved in the making of Vanguard. When it comes to the launch window, several trusted insiders have claimed that the game might arrive on November 10th.

October 29 will make a lot of sense for the publisher to drop the next crucial title. But this is just a theory as of now. Nothing can be confirmed just yet unless an official update is revealed.
