Call of Duty publisher Activision has issued a rare, if brief, comment to seemingly deny a claim it planned to launch a standalone Zombies game.
Earlier this week, Call of Duty leaker TheGhostofHope stated on social media that Activision was prepping two separate Call of Duty games for the launch of Microsoft’s next-gen Xbox console (currently expected to launch in 2027 at the earliest).
The claim described these two launches as “a traditional Call of Duty multiplayer and a standalone Zombies title presumably developed by Treyarch,” and likened their release to when “Infinite Warfare and Modern Warfare Remastered where [sic] both released together.”
That leak was then picked up by gaming blog Dexerto, to which Activision has now responded using its official Call of Duty social media account: “The rumor factory working overtime,” Activision wrote. “This ain’t it.”
Activision typically does not respond to rumors or speculation, making this intervention notable. That said, the vague nature of the denial makes it unclear exactly which parts of the original claim Activision is now saying are untrue, or whether some element of this claim was true until plans ultimately changed.
