Like usual for the Call of Duty series, this year's game has apparently leaked ahead of its official announcement. While Activision has already confirmed a new Call of Duty is coming this year, it hasn't shared any details whatsoever, and we'd usually know by this point in the year when the next game would be releasing and what it would be called. However, according to a tweet that has since been corroborated by Eurogamer, this year's game will be called Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. So far, Activision

It would appear that we have a more concrete date for the launch of the Xbox Series X thanks to an update on the Xbox website console page.
