In case you didn’t know, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s Zombies mode wasn’t developed by Sledgehammer Games (the studio behind the single-player and multiplayer), but by Treyarch, though it seems that isn’t the case now.
Treyarch has confirmed that it has moved on from Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, and Sledgehammer Games will be the one continuing development to finish the narrative. This was revealed by the studio in a recent content creator call where the studio mentioned that they have shifted “”focus to something exciting on the horizon,” which we’re assuming is this year’s Call of Duty game allegedly titled “Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War.”

For Zombies fans who noticed the slim content released for it in Season 3, this is most likely the reason why. Of course, multiplayer and Warzone are still getting a lot of support with new weapons and maps, as each game is supported by separate studios.
Treyarch’s Black Ops Gulf War has not officially been announced yet, but that should change within the month or in May, as we’re expecting the title to be officially announced by Activision with an in-game event in Warzone like in previous years’ reveals.
If Treyarch releases a new Call of Duty game this year, it will do so without studio chief David “Vahn” Vonderhaar, who left the studio after 18 years of service to start his new studio called “BulletFarm.”
While nothing has been announced for Call of Duty 2024 just yet, Activision did push out an in-game eclipse in Warzone to coincide with today’s real-world solar eclipse.
