Everything We Know About Call Of Duty WWII

Stick­ing to its reg­u­lar cycle, Activi­sion debuted the mul­ti­play­er trail­er for pre­vi­ous­ly announced Call Of Duty WWII. While not rev­el­ing too much, they showed us a lit­tle bit of what we can expect. Below is a list of every­thing we know about CoD WWII as of now. Lets get to it.

Setting:

As the title says, This newest entry in the Call Of Duty Fran­chise takes place dur­ing world war 2. Mul­ti­play­er is said to fea­ture some dif­fer­ent fronts out­side the loca­tions fea­tured in the cam­paign. Bat­tle­field 1 has found suc­cess in this set­ting and I expect Call Of Duty will too.

Multiplayer:

“Fast-paced, ground­ed com­bat returns in Call of Duty®: WWII Mul­ti­play­er. Armed with an arse­nal of icon­ic Allied and Axis weapon­ry, play­ers are immersed in bru­tal game­play as they fight to lib­er­ate a con­ti­nent in the throes of tyranny.

The new Divi­sions fea­ture rede­fines how play­ers invest in their MP career, giv­ing them the chance to choose from five divi­sions, each with their own spe­cial­ized train­ing and weapons skills. In War Mode, an entire­ly fresh Call of Duty expe­ri­ence, play­ers must works as a team and fight for con­trol through mul­ti­ple strate­gic objectives.”

Of course mul­ti­play­er is return­ing, CoD would die with­out it. As usu­al some changes have been made to this years entry. Cre­ate a class has been replaced with “Divi­sions” with each with spe­cif­ic com­bat train­ing and func­tions. Devel­op­er Sledge­ham­mer Games says The Divi­sions sys­tem   “fun­da­men­tal­ly rede­fines how play­ers invest in their Mul­ti­play­er sol­dier career.”

5 divi­sions have been announced so far:

• Air­borne: First to the fight, where you move fast and stay quiet
• Moun­tain: Focus­ing on pre­cise and dead­ly sharpshooting
• Infantry: Be the tip of the spear
• Armored: Bring­ing the heav­i­est firepower
• Expe­di­tionary Force: Pack­ing heat with incen­di­ary shells

Score streaks have been con­firmed to be return­ing but no spe­cif­ic streaks were announced.

A new game mode called “War Mode” is includ­ed as part of WWI­I’s mul­ti­play­er, not many details have been giv­en but Sledge­ham­mer says War Mode is “a nar­ra­tive based mode where Allied and Axis sol­diers clash in team-dri­ven assault & defend game­play in the fight for strate­gic objectives.”

Zombies:

Zom­bies are return­ing to Call Of Duty WWII, Nazi zom­bies to appear in WWII, but is said to be a dif­fer­ent expe­ri­ence than the zom­bies modes in the oth­er CoD Titles.  WWII Zom­bies will fea­ture a “back sto­ry that’s based on real events”  and have a expe­ri­ence sim­i­lar to Dead Space. Thats not sur­pris­ing, Before found­ing Sledge­ham­mer Games, Con­drey and Schofield were the heads of Vis­cer­al Games, The devel­op­er of Dead Space.
