Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare Announced

The next installment of Call Of Duty has been revealed. Titled Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare. This time, it is being made by Sledgehammer Games, but still published by Activision.

After the tease yesterday that the "A New Era Arrives". Information about the
 game was leaked along with information, but Sledgehammer has gone ahead to officially release the trailer, along with more details about it.

The game is also set to star Frank Underwood... ahem.... I mean Kevin Spacey as (presumably) the antagonist. It seems that he will play a Jonathan Irons, powerful man in charge of a powerful corporation. A corporation that has created a private military that has taken over nations, but as typical Call Of Duty fashion, a war will ensue. Spacey known for a variety of films and television, this character is very reminiscent of Frank Underwood. A character he played int the popular Netflix show House Of Cards. Simply in the way he speaks of politics, but of course, this is a new character in the Call Of Duty series.
