Next-Gen Focus
Activision has confirmed that the next Call of Duty installment will not be released on PS4, making it the first proper current-gen release in the franchise.
This decision means that Black Ops 7 will serve as the last eighth-gen installment. The previous generation has been stuck with cross-generation entries since 2015's Black Ops 3, which was the last title released on PS3, two years following the PS4's launch in 2013.
With the next Call of Duty targeting PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, players can expect significant core-level design changes and tech improvements. These enhancements could mark a critical evolution for the franchise, which many feel has stagnated since 2019's Modern Warfare redefined the series.
