The Zombies game mode in the Call of Duty series has become a phenomenon of its own since it first shambled into the franchise in 2008, practically begging for its own standalone game. After a report claimed that a separate Call of Duty Zombies title is in the works, Activision issued a rare public denial on social media.
Dexerto reported on a purported leak by X user TheGhostOfHope, who is described as a “Call of Duty Leaker/Insider” in their bio. The leaker claimed that a potential delay for the next-generation Xbox console would throw off marketing plans for the next Call of Duty game, ostensibly a fourth Modern Warfare title. According to the leak, this led to the idea of two Call of Duty titles launching with the new Xbox, one being a standalone Zombies game.
Replying to a Dexerto X post sharing the outlet’s report, the official Call of Duty account bluntly stated: “The rumor factory working overtime. This ain’t it.”
It’s interesting to see the ongoing discussions around the Zombies mode in Call of Duty. The excitement it generates among fans speaks volumes about its impact on the gaming community. Looking forward to seeing what the developers have in store for the future!
