So I wonder what SHG's next game will be, because the modern day is covered, the recent past too, only the near or distant future remains as "news"

I hope Activision/Microsoft doesn't refer them to being a support studio

I dont know if Warzone will be able to stay relevant in 2027 for example, i think the BR fever it's slowly fading. They have to evolve in a significant way the formula. Maybe the next big thing is the map creator project?

BR fever is slipping a bit, yeah. I am not really sure what they can do to keep bringing people back to it. Who knows, by then the next "big thing" could be out. I initially thought that was extraction shooters, but people don't seem to be as on board with that as they was with BR. Maybe with Battlefield and Delta Force it's more large-scale multiplayer matches or something?

Doubtful but if battlefield do return to their old form I reckon a lot of people would enjoy the more sandbox approach to big team shooters vs one that chases realism.

Hi. Long Tom Sensation 😉

With the recent news of Battlefield coming in 2025 with a modern setting (set around 2027-2030), in your opinion, do you see Activision and Call of Duty trying to compete with this new Battlefield game?

If you do, which game do you think they’d put out to rival and compete with this new Battlefield? Obviously Call of Duty is a yearly game whilst Battlefield isn’t, so I don’t suppose BO6 would be competing as that game will be coming to the end of its lifecycle by time Battlefield comes out, but what about that rumoured BO2 sequel coming in 2025 (which is also rumoured to be set around the 2030s) or the next Modern Warfare game from Infinity Ward in 2026 (MW has been putting out large maps and large map modes like Ground War which i see competing with Battlefield.

Last question, do you know what SHG is cooking for their next game? Anything like Advanced Warfare 2 or another MW game or something new?
