Major Game Anniversaries in October 2018
Call of Duty – 15th Anniversary
Including the game that’s due to release later this month, Black Ops 4, there has been 15 mainline Call of Duty games released since Oct. 29, 2003. Then, on top of those, there have been countless other spin-offs, handheld games, and remasters alongside them.
The game that started it all, at least when it comes to the name of the series, released 15 years ago this month. It also only came to PC at the time, with Call of Duty Classic coming to PS3 and Xbox 360 six years later. It featured a substantial campaign that followed different armies, and there was no sign of the multiplayer we’ve come to know the series for. The difference between the linear single-player of the original and the all-out warfare of Blackout in Black Ops 4 is pretty startling. I wonder what Call of Duty will look like in another 15 years.
