The poor sales performance of Vanguard has seen the focus of players turn towards the next annual release heavily rumoured to be Modern Warfare II.
Call of Duty's 2022 release will be a sequel to the hugely successful reboot of the Modern Warfare series which launched in 2019.
Alongside Infinity Ward spearheading the development of the sequel, a leaker has claimed there are numerous studios working on the game, ensuring a polished product with minimal flaws.
Modern Warfare II Developers
According to notable leaker 'RalphsValve,' Modern Warfare II will be a collaboration between a total of 11 studios with Infinity Ward being the lead studio alongside the likes of Raven Software, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer Games. Here's a complete list of the studios rumoured to be working on the title:
- Infinity Ward Austin
- Infinity Ward LA
- Treyarch
- Infinity Ward Poland
- Raven Software
- Sledgehammer Games
- Activision

The leaker also reveals "all hands on deck," Infinity Ward is aiming to right the wrongs of Vanguard which was released with several game-breaking flaws ultimately leading to a delay of the second season of post-launch content.
Why Are So Many Studios Working on Modern Warfare II?
Recent Call of Duty releases often see smaller studios collaborate on the project. Recent leaks have revealed that Modern Warfare II is already in its alpha stage which suggests development is running smoothly. As always, take leaks with a pinch of salt but considering the history of several studios working on Call of Duty games, there's every chance there is some truth behind this particular rumour.
