Call of Duty 6 goes sci-fi?

News
By published

That's what the internet is saying...

Ahead of this weekend's Call of Duty: World at War reveal via Xbox Live Marketplace, comes a tasty little rumour hinting that the COD4 developer's next game will be a bit on the science fiction side.

Take it with a pinch of salt for the time being, but an insider from Infinity Ward is reported to have said, "We are currently working on a new sci-fi title, we cannot release any more information as of yet, we may or may not announce it at E3."

We're not sure how much into the future we're talking here and we hope we're not going to be shooting little green men or vampires on Mars. We've done a little digging only to be greeted by blank looks, which doesn't actually rule anything out in our experience. But it doesn't confirm anything either.

Usually we wouldn't go for such randomness, but we've got a funny feeling about this one. More soon maybe...?
