With the growing reports about the development of the COD 2023, and the looming Activision/Microsoft merger still in litigation, this year will likely see the franchise in its most unusual spot. However, recent years have seen the franchise go through some growing pains, with some developers having to ship games sooner than expected or having more time than expected. Traditionally, Call of Duty games would switch off between different installments made by alternating teams the Modern Warfare series from Infinity Ward, the Black Ops series from Treyarch, and different variations and experimental games from Sledgehammer Games. However, anonymous staff has stated that Activision is putting significant resources toward the new game to ensure its release in 2023. In the Bloomberg report, this shift has caused concerns among the development team at Sledgehammer Games. According to previous reports, the original plan for COD 2023 was to maintain growth and support for Modern Warfare 2, which is now the fastest-selling game to hit $1 billion in franchise history.
