Earlier this week, Activision along with Treyarch Studios and Raven Software finally confirmed the existence of the next Call of Duty game. It’s much later in the year for the typical Call of Duty reveal and even now, fans are still waiting for the official reveal or a trailer for the next Call of Duty. Currently, all fans have to work with is the announcement from Activision during an earnings call that confirmed which developers would be working on the next Call of Duty and a bag of Doritos chips that has apparently leaked the next Call of Duty title and logo.

The Activision earnings call also mentioned that the next Call of Duty will have strong ties to Call of Duty: Warzone and it seems like that crossover is slowly starting. Today, a player reported that a video interrupted a Warzone match for a couple of seconds. The video was brief and purposely glitchy but players can clearly make out the video’s message that reads, “know your history.”
Call of Duty 2020, rumored to be Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War based on the Doritos leak, seems to be getting a proper reveal very soon. This new video from Warzone, plus various leaks and other teases are generating hype for the franchise’s next game. Although, the biggest piece of evidence that a reveal is right around the corner may be from a black crate that has been sent to Call of Duty partners which comes with instructions to not open the crate until August 10 at 12 PM ET. Presumably this crate contains promotional and marketing material for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War but it doesn’t seem like anyone has broken the street date on this announcement yet, so fans will have to wait a few days.
Possibly in an attempt to get the most players playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare to witness the Black Ops Cold War teases, Activision is making the Modern Warfare’s multiplayer free for the weekend. If these video teases are going to pop up more often and across all game modes, Activision will surely want the maximum number of people to see the videos before the game is officially announced, just to drive up hype a little more.
Call of Duty: Warzone is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
