Activision along with Sledgehammer are anticipated to deliver the Call of Duty 2017 series. As a matter of fact, Sledgehammer already posted a tweet hinting the setting of the upcoming COD. The said video game is anticipated to have 'Modern Warfare 4' title.

According to PC Gamer, it might be Sledgehammer Games' turn to roll out the Call of Duty this year. A mysterious New Year's tweet has made a lot of video game's patron believe that the COD 2017 will be set in the 20th century. The tweet comprises the following message together with an extravagant GIF showing an old-fashioned counter buzzing away against a clockwork background. "It's officially 2017!" reads the message. "Some call it the zodiac year of the Hammer. Have a safe and fun New Year's, everyone!"

Furthermore, Yibada noted that before Michael Condrey Studio Head of Sledgehammer posted on Twitter an image of an old M1911A Colt .45 pistol, which is a weapon commonly used in World War II, the Vietnam War and Korean War. But a Call of Duty title from Sledgehammer Games was only concentrated on one of the timelines which is the Vietnam War. With this, it seems that the Call of Duty 2017 will orbit on this setting.

It can be remembered that Sledgehammer once worked on a third-person shooter title set in the Vietnam War-era called Fog of War 2014. Nevertheless, this project was disregarded to give way to Advanced Warfare. But after Condrey's tweet, speculations about this Vietnam War-set game have once again arisen.

Aside from that, there are predictions that the 2017 Call of Duty game is said to be another Modern Warfare game. As a matter of fact, Michael Pachte who is Wedbush Securities game industry analyst, stated that Modern Warfare series obtained a lot of good feedback and there is a high probability that it may have a fourth installment.

It was noted that the recent Call of Duty is set in the future, with spaceships and everything. Nevertheless, the Call of Duty 2017 is anticipated to have an improved setting. Also, more details and information about the Activision's upcoming game is expected to be released soon.
