Call of Duty: Ghosts dev teases 'Squads' mode

4.5
Infinity Ward executive producer Mark Rubin has taken a tip from Battlefield's Twitter strategy and released a short grainy video teasing a new feature in Call of Duty: Ghosts.

The six-second teaser clip appears to show a menu screen that looks much like a menu of the Call of Duty series, and clearly shows a 'Squads' menu screen.

There are two visible sub-menu options on the screen, one a simple 'Options' and the other reading 'Online Play'. A third option is blurred out.

The developer is yet to reveal a co-op mode for Ghosts, and 'Squads' could be the replacement to the Modern Warfare series' Spec-Ops mode, which allowed two players to co-operate in small sub-missions.

Infinity Ward studio community coordinator Candice Capen has previously told fans that Ghosts will "have a cooperative mode of sort" after rumours that the long-standing Spec-Ops mode had been scrapped.

While no further information was teased today, the appearance of a Squads mode would suggest co-operative gameplay in similar manner to Spec-Ops mode but with more than two players.

Rubin said in July that CoD fans should look forward to a multiplayer reveal in "mid-August" - suggesting a possible Gamescom reveal - when we will likely hear more on Squads as well as competitive multiplayer.

I think that this will be similar to Spec Ocs mode from MW2 and MW3. I'm looking forward to this now :) Still gotta go preorder it though :o

ImJakey Honestly, COD: Ghosts doesn't seem like its going to be a very good game. People are realizing that its the SAME Call of Duty Every year, and tats why the Pre-order numbers are so low this year


I agree!


What if the number of Pre-Orders are low because people aren't sure if they want to get it for the xbox 360 or the xbox one?

Finally they scrapped Spec Ops, they could of put the space to much better use! Was quite boring in my opinion...

Infinity Ward tweeted "10 days until MP" on Sunday afteroon, so it's due 10 days after that. Whether that falls on Gamescon I don't know.
So Squads is basically going to be a re-hash of spec ops but extra shit probably, right...
