    Sledgehammer have confirmed that the next Call Of Duty will be primarily developed for Next Gen consoles first.
    The guys over at IGN interviewed Activision Publishing’s CEO, Eric Hirshberg who revealed;
    “Sledgehammer is approaching this as a next-gen-first development,” says Hirshberg. “Obviously in the console-transition year, anyone who developed a cross-generational game last year had to deal with the fact that the technology of the next-gen platforms was still coming into focus and changing quite a bit during the development process…. Now that we have the next-gen hardware out in the marketplace and solid, that is our primary development.”

    Not much has been given away at this point about the plot or anything else, but since the news only came after last week’s earnings call, during which Activision revealed that Sledgehammer was developing 2014’s Call of Duty game that is hardly a surprise really.

    Will this be a trend among developers now that games will be built primarily around Next Gen titles first and older gen later, only time will tell but we imagine so.

    What would you like to see in the next Call Of Duty?
