Call of Duty: Ghosts 'powered by next-generation engine'

4.5
UK superstore chain Tesco has once again seemingly prematurely leaked information on the next Call of Duty game.

The game, expected to be titled 'Call of Duty: Ghosts', thanks in part to an earlier Tesco leak, will be "powerd by a new next-generation Call of Duty engine", according to a new listing which cropped up this weekend (via AllGamesBeta).
The now-removed product description reads:

"The franchise that has defined a generation of gaming is set to raise the bar once again with the all-new Call of Duty: Ghosts. Published by Activision and developed by Infinity Ward, the studio that created the original Call of Duty and the seminal Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series, Call of Duty: Ghosts ushers in the next generation of the franchise, delivering a riveting all-new gameplay experience built on an entirely new story, setting and cast, all powered by a new next-generation Call of Duty engine."

Activision is yet to confirm platforms for the new game, but the series' typical annual November releases would align this year's game with the launch on Sony and Microsoft's next generation consoles, both of which are expected to go on sale before Christmas.

Earlier last week Tesco posted listings for Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the unannounced game, complete with box art which appeared to be genuine.

Additionally, a recently leaked photo of an alleged GameStop 'display blueprint' suggests that the retailer will be receiving new promotional materials related to this year's CoD for display on May 1 - hinting at a public reveal on that date.

Dexter-Holland I probably wont be getting this call of duty. Straight away at least. I was far from impressed with the last two. Might give Battlefield 4 a go. (Not picking favorites by the way ;))


Same thoughts going on for me as well....

Hopefully this engine is as good as the last one

They need a new engine, the last one was way behind BF and Crysis games.

Lavish CoD4 is in the passed. I understand that people want it back but it won't happen. Call of Duty 4 is so outdated that the majority of players wouldn't like it.


It is not in the *past. Call of Duty 4 is the sole reason why the COD franchise (was) successful, and many people (including myself) still play it. It is the pinnacle of the series. COD1/2/3 didn't get as much attention as COD4 did, and the games after it have slowly dragged the series downhill. COD4 had balanced guns, a good community, unmatched map designs, and excellent graphics for its time. If it were in the past, and people didn't like it, do you think they would have released 4 COD4 maps on MW2 DLC?


Sure, its graphics aren't up to scratch for a 2013 game. Nobody would like it if it were a "Cod4 v2" with updated graphics. But it certainly has many features that are worthy of being included in MW4, a 2013 game.


COD4 was a great game and I do realize that people would love to have something similar to that but it's because Call of Duty 4 was the 1st gen of Infinity Wards modern franchise of the call of duty series. Even so, COD games after COD4 didn't really degrade because MW2 was actually a good successor to COD4 (Even though people complained about noob-tubing, last stand etc...)

MW2 never was taken into the depths of futuristic timing, that's what made MW2 somewhat similar to COD4 but in a more advanced and upgraded proportion. Terminal was one of the best MW2 maps that could have ever been brought into MW3. Guess there can be some contradiction between games a bit.


Heres how you fix the series. Divide everything by 10. It was better when kills were only 10 points, not 100. Second, bring back locked 3-5-7 kill streaks. Its better without people camping for high kills. Bring back the original 4 perk system and only a 3 attachments for weapons like before. It was was the high amount of customization which ruined the game. Also, slow down the game. Each game the pace gets faster and faster.


I agree 100%. I hate the pick 10 system where I can chose to have a good gun and no perks or all perks and no gun. I think they should go back to the black ops create a class system with money, so that if I want a extended mag I have to play some games and make some money, not have to get like 300 head shots while prone. Also I agree they need simpler kill streaks, maybe not 3-5-7 but maybe like 8 different ones that only require kills and not these score streaks and make the highest kill streak only 10 kills.

I'm sure the people that say how good CoD4 is could complain about something if they remade the entire game exactly with better graphics.

Bring back some features that MW2 had I think would save this new call duty
