fourzerotwo's Blog: The Future of Infinity Ward

The biggest question I’m probably asked the most on any given day is, “What are you guys working on now?!”; Especially since it’s been nearly 9 months after we’ve shipped  (the currently #1 most played game on Xbox Live ) Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare , a Variety Map Pack for it on every platform, and several patches later. While I can’t quite say what it is that we’re currently working on; I did want to give you a status report on exactly what’s happening here at Infinity Ward and where we’re going as a studio.

Future Projects From Infinity Ward

We’re excited to announce that in the recent months we have decided to reup on our contract with Activision publishing. The recently renegotiated deal may not seem like much of an impact from the outside perspective, but it has laid the ground work and kick started our future project, as well as the possibility of a unique new IP by Infinity Ward, that we’ll have complete control over. We’re excited to be working on our next project, but it’s going to be quite a while before I can share any details on exactly what that project is.

Building The Community

With Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, we were heavily focused on building a community around our titles. Launching Charlieoscardelta.com to give our fans an early look at the game via the Beta, as well as stay informed on pre-production with weekly blogs, status reports, and 1v1 feedback with myself and the rest of the development teams. We’re planning on expanding on this mentality of how we do things in the future, moving out of the era of typical “PR” and moving towards an even more focused community driven future.

Great game, might be a little on the addictive side since my my wife was yelling fire in the kitchen and all I could think about was killing the other player camping on the other team. We need another map pack, these maps are getting old for gods sake!

Ditto on the thanks for the great game! Even with some of the newer games that have been coming out, I still find myself coming back to COD4 for a great multi-player experience. Also, if you’re still offering them, I’d totally be interested in an IW shirt! Keep up the good work man!
