Infinity Ward still key for Call of Duty, 3 CoD games coming?
G4TV has obtained what seems to be an internal memo from Activision - Blizzard that declares Infinity Ward will remain a key studio when it comes to Call of Duty:
It's starting to sound like the story of development studio 2015 all over again. Back in the days, they originally created Medal of Honor (the original, not the upcoming reboot), then the key devs left to form Infinity Ward and created Call of Duty while EA continued milking the MoH franchise with ever decreasing success. Now the key people at Infinity Ward are gone and Activision - Blizzard seems determined to start milking Call of Duty even further.
"Jason West and Vince Zampella are no longer with Infinity Ward," explained Griffith, reiterating what we now publicly know. "Infinity Ward remains central to Call of Duty's future and we rely on the combined talent, expertise and leadership of the team there for its success."
That same memo also states that eventhough Treyarch is developing a CoD game that's supposed to be released this year, next year's episode will not be the "action adventure" by Sledgehammer mentioned previously by the publisher."2010 is expected to be another big year for Call of Duty," said Griffith, "with Treyarch developing a new title for fall release, Infinity Ward's downloadable content for Modern Warfare 2 in the works now, and a new Call of Duty title expected to be released in 2011."
"In addition," said Griffith, making the distinction between the two games clear, "Sledgehammer Games is in development on a Call of Duty title in the action-adventure genre. It's an exciting time and it's the right time to ensure the appropriate resources are there to support Call of Duty's growth."
So it seems we're getting Treyarch's Call of Duty (probably Vietnam) this year, another undisclosed CoD next year (Modern Warfare 3? By Infinity Ward?) and Sledgehammer's action adventure somewhere between next year and the infinite future."In addition," said Griffith, making the distinction between the two games clear, "Sledgehammer Games is in development on a Call of Duty title in the action-adventure genre. It's an exciting time and it's the right time to ensure the appropriate resources are there to support Call of Duty's growth."

The real question will be how well infinity Ward titles will be without these two individuals, ie how important they were creatively? Only time can tell...
