There’s still time for Call of Duty 2023 to make its anticipated debut later this year. However, the rumors and speculations are already doing the rounds on the internet for the last few months, indicating various details that may be revealed in the upcoming title.

Among other things, the awaited installment is also expected to feature Zombies. It will be the first time a Modern Warfare entry will cross paths with the undead, in a unique manner. Going by the reports, it might be an upgraded version of Outbreak from Treyarch’s Black Ops Cold War. Modern Warfare fans, on the other hand, will be curious to see if the members of Task Force 141 will be featured in this mode or not.

The quoted tweet from Hope reveals that Zombies are, in fact, connected to the Modern Warfare franchise. It’s because the Dark Aether storyline is canon to both the Campaign and Multiplayer as well as the rebooted MW sub-series. Taking this theory into account, it might be possible to see Task Force 141 characters coming across the undead inside Outbreak 2.0.

As for Modern Warfare III, the game was recently teased in an NBA-themed event for some select players. Apparently, they got to try out a demo from the new game which is slated to release in November 2023.
