First of all, we hear from chief operating officer Coddy Johnson that Activision is planning “entirely new experiences within the Modern Warfare universe” while we get the confirmation of a new premium Call of Duty game in Q4 (between October 1 and December 31)  which is “already generating excitement” in playtests.

Considering the usual rotation, this one is likely by Sledgehammer, but this was not confirmed during the call.

Chief financial officer Dennis Durkin added that Activision can’t wait to unveil what the developers have been working on and they “feel great about the content.”

That being said, the publisher is “prudently” expecting the game not to do as well as Modern Warfare in its launch quarter.

Incidentally, speaking of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, we hear Activision Publishing president Rob Kostich that attach rate has grown (IE: paying customers) thanks to the new system without a season pass.

A “great pipeline of content is coming” starting with Season 2 next week and there are “some surprises beyond that.”

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
