Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Announced

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was one of the biggest hits of 2007, and surprisingly even surpassed Halo 3 in popularity on Xbox Live; and it just as big of a hit on the PlayStation 3 and PC.

Activision saw fit to have two studios work on pumping out a new Call of Duty game every year, so Infinity Ward and Treyarch would trade off year to year. COD4’s move to ‘modern warfare’ was refreshing and much needed move for the series that was stuck in a genre inundated by World War II scenarios. Treyarch’s 2008 release of Call of Duty: World at War was a good game, but many fans were waiting for the next Modern Warfare entry -- and today we can tell you when it’s coming.

Infinity Ward announced at the Game Developers Conference Choice Awards that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be released on November 10, 2009. COD sequel numbering will never be the same again. In fact, early press materials seem to indicate that the series may drop the Call of Duty brand altogether, possibly making this upcoming game called simply Modern Warfare 2.

Not much is known yet about the game, other than we know it’ll be a first-person shooter with a military combat theme. Check out the teaser video here, which is less of a video than it is an audio clip, and give us your theories on settings for the upcoming game.

I think this game is going to be huge when they finally finish it, I'm actually happy that they are not rushing it and I'm sure this release will be pure quality, Infinity Ward FTW

I didn't even know they were making it.

I would complain about that too, but I suppose in war whatever it takes to win

They should spawn everyone in bunkers or something.

Looking forward to more nukes to live through!

Thats why I play team spec in hardcore, their team usually screams at them to shut it off after a couple team kills when I peg them in groups!

There's one thing I hated when playing Call of Duty 4 the spawn killing but after playing so long the frags was so good to me just pop one in the spawn and move on lol

Ambush
