Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare teaser video spotlights the rise of PMCs

4.1
Activision has released a live-action video feature spotlighting the increasing prominence of modern-day PMCs (private military corporations), which will evidently play a major role in this year's new Call of Duty game.

The video comes shortly after the publisher revealed plans to announce the latest entry in its flagship shooter series on May 4 at 10am UK time (2am Pacific) via a countdown timer posted on the official Call of Duty website.

The new teaser video, entitled 'Superpower For Hire' and embedded below, looks into the real-life global rise of PMCs and their increasing employment in combat. Simultaneously, it confirms the prominent role PMCs will play in Call of Duty 2014, following previous hints on the official site in the form of hidden links pointing to articles involving PMCs.

The video starts with the quote, "In the next Call of Duty, the world's most powerful military is not a country. It's a corporation." It adds, "Could this actually happen?"

An accompanying video description also reads: "In the last 20 years, global combat has seen a steady shift towards the use of private military corporations, or PMCs. What happens when the highest bidder becomes the world's next superpower?"

Watch the video below:

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is scheduled for release on November 4, 2014.

CM_Punk_BITW they game will just suck like ghosts, to much hype for nothing.


I'm glad you've played this new game before to know it's going to suck, where do i get a copy?


Yes, pls give me one!!!!

Don't knock it until you have tried it my friend.


Well based on years past, I believe it is safer to say this year's Call of Duty will be just like the previous years. Hey it might be great and be the first Call of Duty I buy since MW3. But right now if i had to put money on it, I would put my money on it being like the past years. Also this is the most pro cod website I've ever seen that claims to be an all around gaming site. How do all of you still look forward to this when there is so many better games out there?


This is a new company what do you not get lol. this comapnt has not made cod yet and has a complete new trailer, this could be the best one ever!


Sledgehammer made MW3 and ruined it, i will not say how this one will be but it is being made by sledgehammer


Infinity Ward MADE Modern Warfare 3... Sledgehammer just had done some other stuff with the game... lol.
