Rumors have been circulating for a while and earlier this week Activision confirmed that they would be unveiling Call of Duty: Vanguard via Warzone… today! At 10:30 a.m. PT, Warzone kicked off the Battle of Verdansk, a unique PvE battle that pits players against a giant armored train. Squads were rewarded for their efforts with the first full trailer for Call of Duty: Vanguard. Of course, the trailer was put online right away, so you can watch it for yourself without all the work.
As you can see in the trailer, Activision and Sledgehammer emphasize that from the start you’ll be fighting “every front” – Europe, the Pacific and beyond – with a story that traces the origins of modern Special Forces. Here’s the official description:
Vanguard delivers the complete package to Call of Duty fans in Campaign, Online Multiplayer and Zombies cooperative modes. Players will witness the origins of Special Forces as they change the face of history and form Task Force One in a sprawling World War II narrative campaign that spans the Eastern and Western Fronts of Europe, the Pacific and Northern Europe. Africa. Multiplayer includes 20 cards on day one at launch. While Zombies fans will experience a signature undead gameplay experience, a franchise-first Zombies crossover for Call of Duty.
Sounds like a good collection of content – that’s definitely a lot more launch cards than we’ve had in years. Activision also promises a major WWII themed revamp for Warzone…
Later this year, Vanguard players will be immersed in a fully integrated new Call of Duty: Warzone experience with a brand new map, new gameplay and new experiences. Together, this is the most connected Call of Duty ever, all powered by the next-generation Call of Duty engine introduced in Modern Warfare.
The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) has filed suit against Activision Blizzard for widespread gender discrimination and sexual harassment at the Call of Duty publisher. You can get more details about that unfolding story here.
Call of Duty: Vanguard will be marching on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4 and PS5 on November 5. Excited to get those boots back on the ground?
