Next Call of Duty scheduled for later this year, will be 'loaded with innovation'

The next Call of Duty game is well into its development cycle and is expected to hit stores later this year, according to Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision Publishing. The game is being developed by COD veteran Treyarch, who was behind the best-selling titles in the franchise, Call of Duty: Black Ops and Black Ops 2.

The franchise that is Call of Duty is certainly a strong selling IP, but the games have come under fire as of late. Hirshberg states the next title will "be loaded with innovation," something that's believed to be the result of the new three-year, three-developer strategy.

We'll hopefully have more details on the next release soon. What would you like to see in the new Call of Duty game?
