Activision has recruited Sledgehammer Games to help Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 meet its November release date, according to the LA Times. Last March the heads of Infinity Ward, Vince Zampella and Jason West, were fired, taking many of IW's talent with them. They started a new company, Respawn Entertainment, leaving what was left of Infinity Ward to develop the annual Call of Duty in time for November. Sources close to the situation say Activision has asked Sledgehammer Games to help finish Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.


Sledgehammer Games is made up of former Visceral Games members, the team behind Dead Space. Shortly after their formation Activision announced they would be working on a "Call of Duty game that will extend the franchise into the action-adventure genre." This game was slated for 2011. However it seems that this project has been put aside now that Sledgehammer is taking on half the weight of developing CoD: Modern Warfare 3's single player. Raven Software has been recruited to work on the multiplayer.

Anyone else thinking "pass" yet? I know its early but when it takes 3 studios to do the job IW did.....lets just say sceptical comes to mind.

I'm not sold on it, but if Activision ramps up the ad budget and puts some pretty cool vids on YouTube, it'll sell.

Anyone know what the whole Action-Adventure thing means? I know its not for the game mentioned, but I'm still wondering what this means.

What does "action adventure" even mean?
