Infinity Ward’s next Call of Duty has been revealed as the all-new Call of Duty: Ghosts, instead of another sequel in Modern Warfare series. According to Infinity Ward executive producer Mark Rubin, the studio’s decision to leave behind the popular sub-series was the desire to create something new.
“[It was] not a hard decision, but a long decision,” Rubin told MCV. “When we finished Modern Warfare 3, we had this big brainstorming session that lasted for weeks. We all really knew we wanted to continue making Call of Duty. We wanted to create a new universe, or a new story at least. We wanted new characters and new experiences.”
“The easy thing would have been – as we had finished the arc of Modern Warfare 1, 2 and 3 – to start a new arc within that same universe. That was the first step. But due to a lot of the changes we wanted to make with this new world, it really dictated out that we needed to make something that wasn’t Modern Warfare.”
Call of Duty: Ghosts is coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 this year, with an updated engine along for the ride. Rubin said that while technology isn’t everything, next generation consoles do provide the chance to increase realism in the series.
“From a gameplay standpoint, we never felt hindered by the generation or the consoles or the tech,” said Rubin. “We always felt gameplay isn’t tech-dependant necessarily. But this new tech allows us to make those worlds that we are playing in more realistic. We always try to make it so the player always feels naturally involved in the world around them. The more realistic and natural the environment, the more the player’s imagination melds with that game.”

The Sony E3 conference showed up games content line-up and off-course the “PS4”. Now we have all been waiting for months to get a glimpse of how the PS4 would look like and finally here it is. With all the tech and specification you would think the PS4 would be a lot bigger but in actuality it looks quite smaller than the PS3 with a whole new fire power if i might say so. The Sony E3 conference will highlight more PlayStation 4 games and PS Vita games that we gamers have been patiently waiting for. One of the things we hope to get out of this, is the price and the exact release date for the PS4. More games and Highlights presented at E3 will be announced here on Phcityonweb.
