Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Release date set

The release date has been confirmed! November 8th 2011. It is no longer Infinity Ward working on this one though, Sledgehammer games are going to be working along side Raven Soft with this title. Newcomers Sledgehammer will be developing the single player campaign and Raven Soft (known for Quake 4) will be developing the online multiplayer.

The trailer was shown during the NBA Western Conference finals a few nights ago and soon after, Activision released the trailer to the web. The trailer sounds a lot like a Modern Warfare 2 advert, although it is a continuation of the story from MW 2, so that was to be expected in a way. As those of you who have seen the trailer know, the story takes place in several locations around the globe. These locations include Paris, London and New York city, just to name a few.

There was speculation that a PC version of the game would not exist but it has been confirmed that a PC version will be released. This game has been in development for a while now, just two weeks after MW 2 was released, development began on MW 3.

The big question is, can Activison, Sledgehammer and Raven Soft beat what Battlefield 3 is bringing to the table?

If you have not already seen the trailer, we thought we’d include it here for you:
