With Black Ops 7 last year, the Call of Duty franchise saw a significant drop in popularity. This was because a lackluster single-player campaign and increasingly outlandish skins in multiplayer. This has been a persistent issue in the franchise, but it seems it will finally be addressed in the next installment.
In a post on social media, Infinity Ward promised that the cosmetic items and collaborations in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will be much more realistic. The goal is to stay true to the game’s serious and violent tone.
“Every aspect of Modern Warfare 4 is anchored in the game’s narrative. Every feature, every decision needs to feel authentic to what Modern Warfare is, and that includes cosmetics and collabs. We’re committed to keeping it grounded and transparent, and we want to hear from you on what you’d like to see in our game.”
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will be released for PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, and PC this October 23, 2026.
