The release date for Call of Duty 2022 may have been revealed recently, and we might hear more about it soon. Modern Warfare 2
Not only are there strong speculations that a huge franchise announcement is due for today, but a fresh leak may have just revealed this year’s entry in the blockbuster shooter series, which might be a gift for Call of Duty fans before the weekend.
Modern Warfare 2 looks to be the title of the next Call of Duty. Modern Warfare 3 is not to be confused with the 2009 video game of same name, which was published in 2019. Modern Warfare 2 has long been rumoured to be in development by Infinity Ward, but a purported leak of the game’s main menu seems to have confirmed this.
For Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty Vanguard and Warzone, as well as Call of Duty Black Ops, there seems to be a centralised menu. For much it’s worth, the previous several Call of Duty games have had menus that look just like this, so there’s some credence in this picture.
As for the timing of this leak, it’s possible it’s not a coincidence. Numerous sources claim that an important Call of Duty announcement will be made today (Friday, February 11). Reliable leaker Tom Henderson wrote yesterday that “the embargo on Warzone 2 releases tomorrow,” which sparked these claims.

Call of Duty Warzone, the free-to-play battle royale game, is expected to see a sequel. There is speculation that the release of Modern Warfare 2 might be announced at the same moment, given both projects have a strong connection.
A teaser post from Infinity Ward has further fueled the excitement, implying that an announcement is really on the way.
The majority of Call of Duty games are published around October or November. Could an early preview for Modern Warfare 2 mean the game will be released before the scheduled release timetable, or that last year’s entry Vanguard is losing interest? With a huge announcement, Activision may be attempting to resuscitate the gaming community.
Intriguingly, a Call of Duty League esports tournament slated for later today (2:15 p.m. ET) may be the perfect location to disclose what the franchise’s future holds, since thousands of members will no sure be watching. The future of Call of Duty may be just around the bend, so keep an eye on this page.
