Activision Ties Up CoD ‘Future Warfare’ Domains

Superannuation has spotted some interesting domain names being registered by Activision.

Variations on ‘Call of Duty Future Warfare’ one through three, ‘Advanced Warfare’ two and three and ‘Secret Warfare’ two and three have all been tied up by the behemoth publisher.

A March press release from Activision stated that “Sledgehammer Games, a newly formed, wholly owned studio, is in development on a Call of Duty game that will extend the franchise into the action-adventure genre.”It also noted that “A new game in the Call of Duty series is expected to be released in 2011.”These domain names appear to suggest that the series is either moving to the future or in some kind of high-tech espionage direction.So will this mean Call of Duty: 2025? Call of Duty: Global Warming Challenge? Call of Duty: We Don’t Even Use Guns Anymore, We Just Hack Everybody’s Computers?

Whatever the case, it seems Activision is going to keep milking that golden cow for all its worth.
